30 Aug 05 - 02:26 PM (#1552908) Subject: RE: BS: Here's some fashion advice From: GUEST,Mr. Fancy Pants A true woman would never wear white pants between Labor and Memorial day, regardless if it is "winter white" or how popular it is. It is in the same category as same as a true woman would never wear heels with track pants. God Forbid !! |

30 Aug 05 - 04:58 PM (#1552993) Subject: RE: BS: Here's some fashion advice From: Donuel How does one wear suspenders with "fashion sense". I can't wear a belt for a year now since I have a nexus of severe pain at the navel. I have a 39 inch waist but suspenders usually make me look like a Bavarian tourist. Maybe I should try safety pins to my shirt for "support"? |

30 Aug 05 - 07:37 PM (#1553102) Subject: RE: BS: Here's some fashion advice From: GUEST,Mr. Fancy Pants In your case Donuel I suggest a pair of overalls in an informal situation. Definately not denim. A pair seersucker overalls would be acceptable. When a more formal situation calls, try a sarong! |

30 Aug 05 - 08:00 PM (#1553121) Subject: RE: BS: Here's some fashion advice From: GUEST,Mr. Fancy Pants I know the sarong must sound rather shocking. It is totally acceptable. But I stress the sarong must be made of a darker material. Like white pants, a white sarong must not be worn after Labor Day. Personally I don't like white sarongs, as you would look more like a corrupt sleazy Roman senator than a true gentleman that you are. Yes Bobad, Marlon Brando did wear sarongs from time to time, and I must confess he did look quite snappy in them. |

03 Sep 05 - 11:00 PM (#1555803) Subject: RE: BS: Here's some fashion advice From: LadyJean It is white shoes after labor day. White pants can be worn year round, but, in my opinion, should not be worn at all. They are magnets for soy sauce, red wine, ink, vegetable oil, and every other world class stain producing substance on earth. Ladies, if you want to bring on a slow period. Wear white pants. The National Gallery had a picture of Princess Diana in them, and I admired her courage |

04 Sep 05 - 01:04 AM (#1555857) Subject: RE: BS: Here's some fashion advice From: Bee-dubya-ell There's a very simple reason why Princess Diana was able to get away with wearing white trousers after Labor Day. It's because Labor Day is only celebrated in the US. That means people in the rest of the world can wear white any time they damned well please. |

04 Sep 05 - 10:26 PM (#1556276) Subject: RE: BS: Here's some fashion advice From: Peace "Prime Minister Sir John A. MacDonald" The above is from the link I provided. Let it be know to all that the correct spelling of Sir John A's name is Macdonald. He may have had the highest bar bills in the history of this country; he may have sent the Northwest Mounties off to arrest Louis Riel (and then when meeting Riel on the street gave him $50 so that he could go to Minnesota and stop causing Macdonald all those difficulties); he may have been responsible for the theft of land for the Canadian Pacific Railway (which made Harding's 'Manifest Destiny' idea go away at least as it had to do with what is now Canada); and he may have been somewhat erratic in his attendance at Parliament due to his penchant for beverages that contained alcohol, but he was BY GOD the man responsible for this country coming into existence, and he deserves to have his name spelled correctly. Thank you. |
