Tights aren't Pants!

Andrew – Now I admit that my darling friend is the one doing the fashion course and not me but surely as a gay man I have some rights in the fashion-judging department.

Now apart from Lady Gaga, generally no one leaves the house wearing an outfit even Bjork would reject. Most of us at least try to look like we have full length mirrors at home. Why then are my eyes constantly assaulted by people who look like they’ve  been styled by Helen Keller?
Is it my age that makes me want to tell youngsters to pull their pants up before they trip on them? Or does fashion dictate to us that by following the trends we need to get around town with our arse cracks to the wind?

I get that fashion is subjective and very much in the eye of the beholder but surely only to a point.

Once upon a time tucking your school tracksuit into your socks was the epitome of cool, nowdays not so much. I’ve got so many pairs of bell-bottom jeans in my wardrobe that I’m hoping they come back in, otherwise I may have to tie dye them and host retro parties.

Turns out that once you reach a certain age it’s just not cool to be cool. Smoking is no longer cool, it’s an addiction. Boring but true. The same must be said for girls who wear tights as pants. That must be an addiction because it most certainly isn’t cool. In fact I would go as far as to say sometimes it’s positively eye-rapingly revolting! Wear them under stuff to stop your woo-hoo hanging out but mother of God stop wearing them as pants!
Ok so this guy can wear tights as pants...
 I’m also not a big fan of yellow, campers but that is for another time. xx





Lucy – Do you want the “Good news” or the “Bad news”. Ok let’s do both…
The Bad News is: There is no accountings for taste when dealing with uneducated Fashion Victims…They think they are the epitome of cool, but alas they lack a few finer points in the knowledge of what looks good.
Butt cracks are not cool, Just ask plumbers!

Now for the good news; Flares (Bell bottoms) are back this year…feel free to indulge your inner hippie.

For the record tights are not pants…. however the Gold Coasters with the hot rear ends are possibly the only females who can get away with this look….Plus they all have fake boobies & our eyes are confused…we just don’t know where to look first!
The only other person who can get away with this is the cute man candy in the picture…….

So campers if you want to wear tights as pants….just don’t!
