Dceeee, you should check out the list of never ever wears for women on a date at http://forums.plentyoffish.com/2704176datingPostpage5.aspx. Hope you haven't worn that Santa sweater on a date. If so, you have committed one of the OP's fashion faux pas's.


I just consider the source of these two lists...they represent the two people only...neither of which are anyone I care to impress.

As a matter of fact, I'm looking at that top you have on, and my mom has one just like it. I would never wear THAT on a date.

See? Everyone has their own opinions. I don't know what makes you think that you can make the call for all of us!

Which top? The blue and pink one adorned with lovely pearls or my braless perky bewbies top in the pic of me when I was 18? It's more than 30 years old, and I just can't seem to find that damned top now. Rats!

No, she was very sweet, an accountant, but I did have to paint her apartment.

On a first date, yes. After that, unlikely.

> Panama or Hawaiian shirt

Hmmm... I live on Maui... It's quite appropriate... When I used to live in NYC I would wear some nice or even goofy ones. Funny, I got plenty of dates, and was even told often that I had a sense of style.

> Cutoffs

These seem perfect for a hiking date where one will be scrambling over rocks and wading across streams.

> Shower slippers

No slippahs? Eh, sistah, wheah you fum? Oh, you nevah goin' get any dates heah!

Eh, I weah deeze Longs kine ones cuz sombody wen take da good Scott's ones I get -oh I no mo' get 'um any moah - when I leave um outside da las' pahty I wen go!

> Grizzly Adams beard

sometimes I look like that. get used to it.

> Wing tip or saddle shoes

When I lived in NYC I used to wear a beat-up pairs of bacck, brown, or oxblood wingtips with black or blue jeans. See "sense of style", above.

I also used to wear wingtips with my pinstriped dark suits when I worked as a very serious engineer. Dressed it down with funky socks or interesting ties whenever I could get away with it.

I don't know about the chaps, it depends on if the first date was going for a ride on the bike. If it were cool out, chaps would be welcomed. I personally don't own any, but have had a few first dates that wanted to be picked up on my bike.

Here's a question for all the ladies:
Us low-brow men now know what turns women off (and on) in fashion, but what about the tresses?
Do women, as a group, prefer long hair, shoulder length, shaved, dreds, mullets, or what?

I personally prefer respectable and tidy hair. I joke about mullets cause they're so outdated and redneck. I detest long hair on men—even when it was in style in the 70's I detested long hair on men. I don't mind chrome domes on men, in fact, I prefer that over hair that's only around the perimeter of the dome, and it's easy enough to shave your head in the shower a few times a week. I like facial hair, particularly, goatees and flavor savors. I said already no Grizzley Adams beards, and mustaches-only are a bit out of style too. Clean shaven is fine. Dreds just look too stoner-like for me and kinda dirty as well.

well now ..yes it does...it seems molonel wears them on his dates and told us on the "dont get married" thread.

oh and long hair? maybe just to the collar but unless you are a musician, I would say no to it. Mullets are a total no-no. Bald and shaved well thats ok.

puca shells
western shirt, rolled up sleeves
tight denims
work boots

I know some of you might think this is hot. Trust me, it wasn't.

DiggyDiggy, too funny! Ewwwwwwweeeeeeeeeee.......

A mullet. It's 2006, not 1982.

A flower patterned silk shirt, hairy chest and a massive bronze medallion.
Oh yeah, baby.

Some of this stuff is really gunny. So, here's my two cents in the form of an over heard conversation. Here now!

Gal: Honey, I want you to wear your birthday suit on our next date.
Guy: Well, I can handle that, but you have to let me wear a terry robe.
Gal: OK, I guess that will be fine.
Guy: Good and BTW, I want you to wear the same thing, too.

The worst fashion faux pas I ever saw on a man was when I went to a speed dating event. The guy had on a green shirt with brown pants, black shoes and white socks. For crying out loud, I thought. He looks like a dorky TREE with the green and brown!! AAAACCCCKKKKK!!!

I'd say nix the mullets, combovers, shaggy beards, dirty clothes, baseball caps in nice restaurants, and anything ripped or torn. YUCK!!

Block Island faux pas: REALLY fat dude with enough hair to be a dog, and wearing a teeny Speedo. Looked like a beached whale when he was lying down face-up!! EWWWWW!!!

Nantucket one: A guy in a matching white zoot suit with green, yellow, orange, red and blue vertical stripes--OMG he must've gotten that from the Disco Store in the '70s. OH, FRACK!! (Pun intended--ACK is the airport code for Nantucket!)

The WORST woman's faux pas was more like a FRACK UP. I was at the local airfield with friends and saw a woman wearing a Star Trek outfit. I talked with her because I was curious. Turns out the woman wears those every day!! She even complained about her brother not letting her wear her dress uniform to his wedding!! Now I think she must've been waiting for a flight to a mental institution--now that is wicked weird!!

That crazy woman gave the average Star Trek fan a bad name--if you saw me walking down the street you would never know that I enjoy reading the Star Trek novels. I typically wear preppy or sophisticated professional styles.

It's been fun reading all those fashion faux pas from these and the women's fashion thread!!

Send some more!!

Take care,

DW

PS. Santa sweatshirts--cheesy & tacky!! Makes me want to say BAH HUMBUG!!!
