@ hot-angel fashion is a style of dressing that identifies you and your personality. Lots of people think they are fashionable in the same "uniform outfit" that everbody is wearing.

fashion is all about creativity in dressing. An example of fashion Dullards is this "color coordination" thing that blacks embrace.

Jammin, I do agree with you that Fashion is a style of dressing that identifies you and your personality. I create some of my outifts, and i know what works best with my body kind.

But there are some things, people shouldn't do or wear. Personality or no personality. I don't like wearing what everyone is wearing, being unique is something i take very seriously.

People can be creative -- yes. But i still stand on the fact that there are some things people shouldn't wear.

Ohh Btw, i want to add that, I know today's fashion don't might be tomorow's fashion do. But there are some fashion's do that never fade. The little black dress is a good example.

U cracked me up big time hottie, esp that 'shimmer' part. Where you been girl? Seasons' greetings and happy holidays
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by diddy4(m): 1:26pm On Dec 27, 2006
@hotangel

i agree with all you have said but wearing a face-cap backwards, aint a crime to me. its more of fashion. if u think its a crime then no one should wear sunglasses if there is no sun out.

secondly, the suit with sneakers thingy, i think its allowed if the guy dresses informally. i wont say i dont do it, cuzz i do it. when i wear a suit with a sneakers, i fly my shirt and still got the tie but i dont button the top button of my shirt and it is usually a sports jacket. i dont button the jacket too.

There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING wrong with wearing socks with flip flops, or something like that. Make una enter -20 degree weather, una go understand. Some of ya'll think its not fashionable, una go tire. As for Me, body comfort comes first.
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by ThiefOfHearts(f): 6:04pm On Dec 27, 2006
Everything mentioned is a fashion mistake.

lol@ sandal with socks. gross.

suit and sneakers? what a shame.
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by comechop(m): 6:16pm On Dec 27, 2006
Guys: DONT wear ur black pants (trousers) and black dress shoes with WHITE SOCKS. Pls. Just dont do it. pls
Girls: I honestly think tattoes are not appealing on girls. It really isnt. Esp the one that they do below their back that they think its sexy or what not. Seriously. Wait till ya'll get old, eww,

And wearing socks with flip flops INDOORS is NOT a crime. I insist. Esp. during winter. Lawd 'av mercy on you if u dont!

Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by diddy4(m): 2:01am On Dec 28, 2006
i repeat myself. I do wear sneakers with suit just the way i described it above. the first time i dressed like that to an event in Lagos back in Naija, I came out in the Gallery magazine.

suit and sneakers is wrong if formal but if u dress informally, it is allowed. P.diddy can tell you better.

fly the shirt
dont button the suit
leave the first and second button of shirt open
wear a belt that has a big head
make sure the jacket can also be used as a sport jacket.
lastly, make sure the tie is loose.
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by diddy4(m): 2:03am On Dec 28, 2006
yes, i do wear socks with flip flops. the weather here is terrible and its comfy to wear when u are going to eat or something.

i wont pretend as if i dont do some of these. the ones i do, i will defend.

These are the same people advoacting sandals with socks. Sorry if I refuse to take what they consider to be "high fashion" seriously.
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by diddy4(m): 2:04am On Dec 28, 2006
i never said sandals with socks, i said flip flops with socks.

aint saying this for you to take seriously, im just defending how i dress cuzz aint no one out there is gonna tell me how to dress. i was born with fashion.
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by ThiefOfHearts(f): 2:05am On Dec 28, 2006
Denial must be a beautiful island cheesy
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by diddy4(m): 2:08am On Dec 28, 2006
i will appreciate it if you show me where i made that statement.
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by ThiefOfHearts(f): 2:11am On Dec 28, 2006
lol I meant denial as in you saying you were born with fashion  tongue

Plus I didnt mean that YOU advocate socks with sandals/flip-flops it's still stupid anyway but yea I meant Lagos people. wannabe fashion socialities that dont know shit about anything except the ones from Surulere like myself  tongue
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by Nobody: 2:16am On Dec 28, 2006
I'll have to agree, the suit with sneakers thing is ridiculous. Yeah rappers wear them but will you honestly want to do as rappers do?. . . undecided It might look okay with the blazer suit and fly shirt thing (Usher style).

I'm wearing flip-flops with socks at the moment. It's too cold man and your turn up the heat advice doesn't work, money no dey grow for tree. angry
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by diddy4(m): 2:18am On Dec 28, 2006
lol, oh, yeah for real boo, i was born with fashion. did i tell you that when i was born, the new style of suit came out for men and ladies started wearing there flat soles. lol tongue

oh u mean in Naija? who the heck wears flip flops and socks in Naija? the person needs his or her head checked.


@donzman
do you know the meaning of informal dressing and sport jacket? come on now, i made it clear it has to be informal and a sport jacket.
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by ThiefOfHearts(f): 2:23am On Dec 28, 2006
lol I forgive you Donzie, just as long as you dont go outside in public like that. angry

I dont mind the sports jacket with NICE sneakers look as LONG as the dude's pants arent dragging to the ground and the jacket doenst look like something a retired primary school teacher would wear. Also such an outfit cant be worn to an important event
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by diddy4(m): 2:25am On Dec 28, 2006
@TOH
you funny. yeah, of course the pants wont drag and the jacket has to be fashionable. the shirt has to also be informal with some design on it or something.
