‘Meggings’, Things to Leave Behind in 2012 #Fashion #Men #Why

You made me not Belieb

I think the picture above says it all.

‘Meggings’ or man leggings are one trend we would LOVE to see die in 2012. I remember a ton of hair rockers wearing them in the 80’s. The premise was being ‘over the top’ or ridiculous. And it worked. Now meggings have resurfaced, but this time they are considered a fashion statement. (God save us)

According to http://fashion.telegraph.co.uk meggings are sold at some of the top luxury brand stores and are going international;

(In the US) Uniqlo, Barneys and Nordstrom are selling tights for men.

The bad news is they are on their way to Britain: Uniqlo is already selling them on its British website, and their success in New York is seen as an indication they will also prove popular here. (the UK)

Perhaps some of my skinnier-than-thou gays could work that style, or a REALLY hot metro sexual man. GQ boys can get away with anything.

Man leggings….meggings? I think there is a line you can cross with good taste and this it.

Russell Brand wore them but did it as a joke. Ya know, that funny ha-ha thing. And Justin Bieber has the fashion sense of a Disney kid. Ergo, what ever wardrobe gives him he wears. The Telegraph UK sites Lenny Kravitz wearing them, however he reeks of sex. He can pull of anything.

I hope to say good-bye to meggings this new years. Perhaps I will burn one in effigy and pray to the gods. Lets let meggings die in 2012 and skinny jeans reign free.

What do you think of the ‘Meggings’ trend. Do or die? Live or try?

New This Wedding Season “Bridal Uggs”

It hurt’s me to type this, but it is true as verified by the Huffington Post, there are 100% authentic…Bridal Uggs.

Now I have always been on the fence as far as Uggs are concerned. I see they have a place in casual, laundry day, late night supermarket run and OMG it’s actually cold wear in CA. Although I refuse to own a pair, they are not Crocs and therefore, tolerable.

Bridal Uggs, though? Welllllll…….take a look at the official collection.

Complete with pretty white flowers to let you know they are ‘BRIDAL’ and not to be worn as a normal Ugg these babies include a lovely slipper Ugg, a shiny opalescent sequined Ugg and my favorite.

A Swarovski crystal Ugg that screams ‘I have too much money and no class’.

I suppose bridal parties like this made it inevitable.

So carry on Uggs. Destroy all that is sacred and turn yourself into Crocs. I hope the designers put an end to this and make this 2012 Bridal Collection ‘Limited Edition’.

This certainly tested my gag reflex writing this blog. Here’s hoping Ugg stop’s before it’s too late.
