I seek assistance from the fashionable people on this thread.
I am wearing black shoes and "stone" (IE, beige) trousers. Which of the following is most accurate?
1. I should be wearing black socks
2. I should be wearing beige socks
3. I should be wearing no socks
4. I shouldn't be wearing shoes that don't match my trousers
5. I should be wearing a skirt
Either black trousers and brown shoes or vice versa should never ever be done
Also the only acceptable male underwear has to be black Pringle Boxers (that ones for you fletch
For women:
1. Wearing stockings or tights with open toe shoes (exceptions: fishnets, or opaque black with peep toe shoes). Vulgar.
2. Pop socks in any circumstances. The most powerful passion killer known to man.
3. Hot pants (particularly if, like the notorious woman at Hammersmith, most of your buttocks are sagging out of the bottom of them).
4. Shorts (androgeny sucks).
5. Culottes (make you resemble the pictogram on loo doors)
6. Calf length trousers (ghastly beyond belief, even if you have good calves).
7. Training shoes and/or track suits (except when en route for the gym). Too chavtastic for words.
8. Anything with an elasticated waistband. Time to diet.
9. Underwear that shows that you don't love yourself.
10.Leggings. Not flattering no matter what your figure. Look particularly awful when worn under a skirt.
For men:
1. Logos of any description. Extremely naff.
2. Wearing anything other than deck shoes or flip flops with shorts. Do you really think it's sexy to wear black socks and work shoes to highlight your anaemic, skinny legs?
3. Pedal pushers. If you are short, they make you look like a little boy. If you're tall, they make you look like a geek.
4. Polo shirts. The uniform of middle aged golfers with horrible paunches. Shapeless and unflattering no matter what your physique.
5. White underwear. No, you're not in the Levi's ad, and it makes you look like a little boy. Leave white for women.
6. Shoes with synthetic soles. Naff, plus you can't dance in them.
7. Hats of any description when worn indoors. Unspeakably bad manners and suggests massive insecurity about hair loss.
8.Formal shirts with half length sleeves. Shows a complete absence of aesthetic sensibilites.
9. Double breasted suits. Always unflattering and make you look fat.
10. Training shoes and sportswear of any description except when exercising. Chavtastic no matter what it cost.

More fashion advice required...
It's a dance ball, the DJ+shirt+bowtie is getting a bit damp. Which of these equally hot options is most fashionable?
1. Keep the jacket, switch the shirt for a smart/sparkly T-shirt
2. Ditch the jacket, switch the shirt for a clean shirt.
Or are there better options?
If we are talking about jiving then it has to be shorts on men. They should bring back hanging for this. I am glad to see Sheepman has given up this singularly unattractive apparel.
The look has been handed down to ordinary soldier's wives now. I didn't know what on earth my new husband was on about 11 years ago, on moving into our first married quarters in Germany. He tried to paint the picture for me but what a shock on seeing it for myself!
Am glad to say it's NOT a look I ever took to and it's a rare sight nowadays.
As for the officer's wives...totally different breed.
Twin sets, lots of pearls and alice bands...nice and subtle. They may even do the thong thing showing above their A line skirts....dunno???
Has anyone mentioned striped shirts and checked ties yet? Eughhh...
