Grilled tropical seasoned chicken sarnies on brown rustic.
What clothing have you worn in the past in an attempt to follow fashion - or rebel fashion or the 'latest fancy trend'? (pics would be better!)
I used to have a gold and blue pair of two tone trousers (pants) nIIIce!, lofas - black shoes with two silly tassles on, jeans with a white stripe up the side, a 'funky belt' ...a webbing style belt which hung down your leg, a Harrington jacket - black with tartan inside, 'winkle pickers' with gold caps on the end, Chelsea boots and 'stretch jeans'.

Couple of beef burgers (not quite US standard) in pieces of fresh bread.
Last time, I wore anything that could at all be a fashion statement were these.

Since then, I wouldn't have a clue at what represents fashion, although I believe tank tops are no longer in.
I'm just digesting the 1/2 bagel I ate in the car for breakfast.
When I was in my college band, I wore a knee-length psychedelic shirt that I had bought in Barbados and a straw hat. I looked like a twerp. I don't wear hats well. I don't wear anything well but, unlike a certain BaMmer whose name I won't mention, at least I try.

You had better name him/her before the mods get indundated with reports that you may have libelled them.

Just a plain pretzel... Ate everything else in the morning already :o
Well, just yesterday I scouted for my nail polish - hadnīt used them for years, so as a form of celebrating my first PRS I put on my blue one !!
Looks absolutely cool !
But the reaction of that "lady" in the elevator (:eek: ) showed me how rebellish this really looks I guess - 20 blue nails plus a turquoise baseball cap and my PRS silhouette T-Shirt ! Yes ! :D

Leftover potato salad.
I've always been a Levi's 501's kind of guy. Depending on where in the world you are, it could mean that I have expensive taste in clothes. :D

In the 70's, I supported myself for several weeks in Jamaica by selling old T-shirts that I'd brought with me. And I'd heard that US blue jeans were nearly legal currency in the old Soviet Union.

Cuban sandwich.
In the early 90's it was really cool to "peg" your jeans by tightly rolling them up above your ankles. Hey, you had to show off your new pair of Reebok Pump sneakers. Add in the pink/purple Hyper Color t-shirt, too. Top it off with accessories like a slap bracelet, plus brightly-colored hat and you're ready to rock!
Of course, I never followed this snappy style...:o

A Spurs maki and a Miami beach maki from Sushi Zushi in San Antonio, TX.
I've always pretty much ignored fashion, although I remember *wanting* a pair of mod bellbottoms in the worst way back in '69 or so.
I did wear a daishiki to a number of gigs in the summer of '77. I don't think that was anyone else's style but mine at that point.
And I seem to have accumulated several hawaiian shirts recently. Not sure if they're considered fashionable nowadays, but they are popular with some of my colleagues, notably the statistician types.

Gazpacho and a glass of red wine - Spanish hydraulics at their best :)
I wear boxers with my suits, boxers with my chinos, boxers with my cut-offs, and I still sleep naked.
Now - does anyone REALLY give a toss about the last one? I don't think my wife even notices anymore :confused:

I've always been a Levi's and t-shirt kind of guy. The sizes, shapes, and colors may have changed over the years though.

Peanut butter sandwich. The first good nectarines of the year.
In the 80s I did peg my pants legs. I also had a fine collection of shirts with segmented sleeves. I also recall a cotton jacket made of white, black, and green panels, reversible, which also turned itself into a stuff sack.
I have kept one thing from the late 80s - a black and yellow op-art jacket which is still too cool for words, although I haven't been seen wearing it in public for a few years.
