Put Something Really Cool Here.....

Chello.Kids,

In my recent spurt of annoyance, I have decided to turn the somewhat cloudy outlook into a ray of hope. The prospect for change has been on my mind A LOT as of late, And due to this state-of-mind, I contemplated and decided to bring you...

REVAMP 2007:

A potpourri of clothing items, thoughts, & attitudes we should ALL let go of in order to assist in our strides towards self-improvement in all areas.

Now before I venture into the exciting stuff, I must offer a disclaimer. These are opinions. Nothing more, nothing less. ((Humble.Request. Please don't shoot the messenger!))

With that, let us commence!

YIKES.

Suspect #1:Airbrushed tees w/ images of Tupac, Biggie, James Brown, ________(place an deceased, retired, incarcerated or otherwise lost celebrity here).

• NOT a fitting tribute (sorry, guys). Save your $ for a Greatest Hits album or something. Let them rest in peace!!
• Airbrush art period is tired. As of ummmm 2003.

Suspect #2: Bop flops/Chinese slippers

• @ one time, these were acceptable. I regret to inform you that that time has passed.



• DO NOT pass them on to your little sister or cousin



• DO NOT go to the gas statioon in them



• DO NOT retire them to the public and then save them as house shoes
  

Suspect #3: Coogi Sweaters.

• So what, they revamped the line. It's STILL Coogi...& it STILL looks like an array of random rainbow-colored throw up.

Suspect#4: Colored suits & suits w/ more than three buttons (click the link..)

• Unacceptable & tasteless in most cases.
  


• Men: your suit jacket should not reach your knees, this is not a flattering silhouette for ANY man.
  


• Full out flamboyant "pimp" suits with matching derby hats and Schmaters (aka. fake Gators) send a horrific image through my mind.
  

EXTRA: Because I am sooooooooooo disheartened by the number of men who still find this acceptable attire to weddings, graduation, church, concerts & otherwise dress-to-impress affairs, I feel it's imperative that you know what colors DO work for a suit. Take heed: Navy blue, black, neutral brown, and neutral gray are all completely acceptable (& professional, *DING*!) You can even get away a white (or other neutral colored) linen, seersucker or pinstriped suit if it is worn and executed properly.

So now you've got 4 things to spot and destroy compliments of a friend/confidante here at Britt.Tish.Man....do what you wish with this list but as always, we welcome your comments & suggestions. Sound off @ britt.tish@yahoo.com & i'll post the bests!

Happy.Hunting(Pun intended!)
