I want to talk about a couple of friends of mine, two females who are best friends. I mean they have done everything together they have shopped, dated (double date you dirty people) and traveled together. There occurred a thing which if it wasn't that it has happened before I would attribute it to their special individuality. It comes down to the three Fs which in our case comes down to
- Females
- Fashion
- Falsities
See female A was wearing a dress which was you know whatever, nice enough but I being an over-analystic nut job. Noticed that it had particular lines and folds which caused the observer to think that her hips were much (much) bigger than they in fact are. I not wanting to be an ass and let her know that I a male has noticed such a thing (nothing between us, but all the same I find females and males don't appreciate the opposite sex noticing their flaws). So I told female B to tell female A that the dress didn't work for her who responded to me that she would never tell her friend that. Now I didn't say anything and thankfully it was dark because I doubt my face was so silent. Now, this is but an instance of a much wider phenomena that I notice so often that females snipe at others for lack of fashion sense but seem to allow their supposed friends (and even their family) to leave the house with horrendous taste. Now while I am neither gay nor an aspiring fashion designer I do understand lines and flow and hell color isn't even beyond me on a good day. So I mean if I can tell what you are wearing looks like shit why aren't your friends saying something to you? Now if it happens once its like whatever yeah? But when your making the same stuff up time after time why isn't someone saying something?
Someone will say that they respect your style. My response? your style is ugly, not ugly because it is different but ugly because it is doing you no favours. I respect my mates style and even though I think it looks like shit I got to say it suits him and his general style so yeah I say nothing. But when my fat brothers wear some horizontal striped shirts I stop them and let them know that yeah those colors and cut is their thing, horizontal lines are not for them.
Some will say that it isn't their place...so exactly whose place is it to protect them? Their enemies? Isn't friendship a matter of helping one another?
See this has happened 3-4 times (those have been the time when I didn't want to say anything myself and when I knew someone close to the fashion failure to be comfortable enough to say something) so I got to wonder maybe I am just an asshole?
BTW Someone told me that the fashion this year is high stilettos and all I can say is "Can't wait"
