A quiet Monday night - in a time machine pub!


Have just spent the evening in a fairly quiet bar/pub. The kind of place that is friendly to students but pretty much most nights is quiet but opens up an underground dance floor and dj at the weekend. 
As I was having a drink (on a first date!!) I suddenly realised I was actually cerca 1989-1994!! This of course meant I should have been way under the legal drinking age but that has never stopped me before. In walked a man as I was sipping on my rose wearing white jeans, black loafers and a black t-shirt. I mean.... really??
I wanted to say something but didn't want to appear rude to my date so instead I felt it appropriate to snigger instead (bad choice I know). I just couldn't believe it! He looked like he had mugged e17 on the way to a party or Bros. (the 80s duo) at a concert. Neither are looks one aspires to any more and for a good reason. Monochrome is generally elegant and 'safe' as a fashion choice but this was not. It's pretty much up there with the white linen trousers and black/patterned underwear combo. It just shouldn't be a mistake people make these days!!!

Night Club Nightmares

As I frequented a local bar last night, (yes I am still suffering), I noticed a large number of bad outfits. I suggest people discontinue dressing like it is 1995 in lycra white backless dresses and scrunchies (my mortal enemy). It is after all 2011 and it is currently not even retro or vintage yet. 
Although during my evening as my alcohol consumption rose due to bellinis and jagerbombs I nearly plucked up the courage to suggest to a girl she should read a magazine or watch gok wan. Luckily my need to remain without a black eye prevailed and I did not go over to her. Even though part of me thinks it would of done her some good!
