Ok repulsive sight which I must ensure you are familiar with...The terms back-less/slip-on shoes were coined by somebody who clearly was mixed up in regards to foot attire and what shoes to wear on any particular day...Should they have worn summer or winter shoes? was the question...Hence the arrival of the slip-on/back-less point....
Ok so I clearly was not born in that era when the concept of the “shoe” popped into the world however as I have gathered over time it is required to be worn just like it is said. No socks or stockings are required for this one, which was clearly the opposite to what I laid my eyes upon the other day.
There was some attempted concealing action occurring the other morning where the young lady who was off to work on her merry way had clearly forgotten to get out of her comfy bed socks. While strutting a dark pair of chocolate brown trousers there appeared to be a slight flaw in the outfit. She had slipped into a black pair of slip-on points however had forgotten about was between the pants and shoes...there, poking through was an old pair of grey socks...
Ok this is a simply solved issue I feel...all that needs to occur is a spot check of your southern region before you hit the streets. This includes making sure and checking you have carefully concealed anything that should not be seen. She clearly could have snuck into a pair of skin coloured stockings or ditched covering her toes all together and stuck with just slipping the bare foot into the shoe.
Either way it probably would have saved her the embarrassment of realising she had not bothered to change out of her sleeping wear to go to work. I am not really the biggest fan of this style of shoe and I have found it suits older ladies more. No way could I see myself strutting my stuff in a pair of back-less points with heels, not to mention I would probably stack at the first available hurdle as they flip flop everywhere worse than a pair of thongs...the only way to wear points is clearly with a back attached to them – exposure is not cool....

Double Denim was a hit back in the 90’s where purchasing a pair of flared jeans without the matching denim jacket was a crime. In fact, if you were not sporting matching attire it was considered that you had no clothes to wear and your random selection was seen as unconventional. Now-a-days - if you are matching your items of clothing you are seen as a basket case, take for example the matching track-suit combo or even the cardi and matching camisole…these items really show your age…
Meanwhile back to the double denim issue…it should be forever banned. Sure it was cool back in the days where you were 10 and you saved all your pennies and dimes for that ultra-cool dark or light wash denim jacket but not toady and not when you are 20 years of age. No one would walk out of their house in today’s day and age strutting the buttoned denim jacket over a pair of skinny legs…You would undisputedly replace it with either the classic black leather jacket, or any colour for that matter, or a massive cardi.
Back to the offence that I was initially discussing. So here she was….an innocent 20 something-year-old prancing the streets of Melbourne with a dark wash pair of fitted jeans teamed up with a plain white-tee and the short denim jacket. Ok ‘no’… is the simple remark. For a start, the denim jacket was light wash and one of the buttons had fallen off and secondly it looked utterly repulsive.
With her dark pair of jeans there would have been an ample selection of threads she could have worn to avoid the double denim label yet she chose to ignore all the signs and strutted her stuff looking like a massive roll of material you find in Spotlight.
Definitely not the best look and it should utterly be avoided at all times…

Ok major embarrassment alert…this screams disaster without any effort at all…some people ask the question – “didn’t your mother teach you how to get dressed?” – obviously - the answer is no in some instances…
During my adventures on the weekend and some venturing into town, I discovered a lot of people forget how to dress themselves, yet meanwhile, I could not come up with a rational explanation for their hideous acts of foolishness… While out at a bar in Melbourne on Friday night, I thought to myself, it must be “reveal your ‘unmentionables’ night”…
To put it simply a lot of people had unintentionally left themselves open to all sorts of hours of the morning (literally) and their shops were still trading as they knocked back their 17th alcoholic beverage. I am clearly discussing the “fly” on a pair of trousers or jeans…
It was very uncomfortable, as I entered the ladies powder room, to be confronted with two chicks who did not appear to be out together with the fly on their skinny leg jeans wide open…It was quite an embarrassing spectacle. Clearly, in these circumstances, people have an abundant supply of ammunition to argue that you are so inebriated that you neglected to maneuver the vital zip on your pants…The other explanation could be that you simply forgot (thinking unconsciously) that you had already correctly dressed yourself just like your mother taught you when you were a child.
Poking through the fly (shop) was an accumulation of various pieces of material which should have been reserved for where they belong – being in your pants. One outfit was quite hideous where the poor young woman (who was clearly affected by a few too many wines) actually managed to creatively (although I think it was unintentional) have her shirt, which she had tucked into her skinny leg jeans, poking though the fly…it resembled a flag of some description…
Seriously, the crime (and fashion disaster) was great for a laugh while the dim-witted individual was utterly clueless. This was quite alarming as there was a mammoth mirror as you exited the rest rooms so how she missed the smashing, red shirt poking out down south is quite brainless to put it in simple terms.
My tips are completely effortless and straightforward, one being – wear a frock (although this can also tend to get a bit messy at times). Number two is just basic commonsense - Check yourself out in a mirror in a super-dooper quick fashion, (if one is available) or make sure you have a trusty side-kick/ wingman/ wingwoman who ensures you remain clothed during your weekend shenanigans.

I realise the chilly weather calls for some warming action however some people essentially go way too far to ensure their bodies are maintained at a healthy body temperature. What ever happened to numerous layers of tights or stocking or even the birth of the leggings to ensure your legs were not dying of hypothermia? They are all still very much alive, especially in the winter months, and will definitely continue to be a hit in Melbourne as Spring pops into town for a couple of months tomorrow morning.

What is the point of showing a bit of skin and then attempting to conceal it with a tiny spot of material? This clearly is an unanswered question in today’s society with many chicks being confused as to whether or not they let that little piece of flesh be exposed to a touch of vitamin D or not...
I can not understand the logic of those individuals who sport a super-dooper short frock and then under it, they are wearing a pair of shorts. Um hello – what was the point in the first place of wearing the dress? Don’t want to alarm you but you just clearly contradicted yourself in the fashion department.

I can not understand the mentality of some people in this world. It has been said over and over again that exposing your muffin top is bad news, Everyone has them and it has become the social norm to ahh cover them up – hence the introduction of verryy long tops ... (I happily praised their arrival on the scene)...What incentive is given to those that choose to wear tops that are clearly toooo short for them and do not even reach their belt line?
At one stage I thought - ok shorter tops do indeed serve a purpose in this challenged world. They allow the prospect of snuggly fitting into your high-waisted jeans and not rolling up so disgustingly that you can see and feel the bunched up material through the skin tight jeans. That is the only service they offer otherwise they might as well be super tiny mid-riff tops which have no shame in letting your body access a heap for vitamin D from the exterior that is the world.

I still have no idea how people honestly believe that they can get away with sporting a bedroom t-shirt as a dress? The question is beyond me and the answer is clearly yet to be discovered if I am writing of this absurd occurrence. It was a strange scene and one which I thought was quite a way of attracting attention, clearly it not being unwanted.
Sitting calmly, in my spot on the train, in Melbourne, this young foolish girl came bouncing in on my carriage with her trusty sidekick being her mobile glued to her ear yapping away. What was to follow next was a complete disaster. Despite embracing her arms, torso and back with a bright yellow, canary coloured, long cardigan, she had managed to completely ruin the cardi’s appeal with what she had decided to cover her legs with – or not to cover them with…

I can not comprehend those individuals who leave the safe nest that they call home and enter the crazy world with strings attached. When you have just purchased a brand-spankin’ new pair of jeans or a pretty top, the last thing you want to be doing is strutting your stuff down the street with a ball of cotton in tow.
While commuting on the trusty train service in Melbourne, I got off at my desired end point of travel and stood patiently behind a young girl, as the escalator did its job and raised me up a few levels until I reached heaven – being Melbourne Central. I was confronted with this girl on the tram as I continued my journey - only to spot an issue. She was wearing a white long sleeved top, which was pleasant on a winter’s day however, she appeared to have a few unwanted accessories.

It has got to be the utmost repulsive thing when you are dancing in a venue in the evening time with the moon in full view and an alcoholic beverage in your hand when you spot patches...of wetness...made up of sweat...What is more alarming is the fact that we are in winter at the moment...
The other night, while I got my groove on, after hitting the d-floor, my girlfriends and I spotted unpleasant secretions. Honestly kids, I realize it gets toasty in nightclub venues but that is the reason for a cloak room. Sure, I am clearly aware it is like zero degrees outside when you are ready to prance into a club but you do not need to dress like an Eskimo seeming most of your time you will be spending inside – at an optimum temperature which is set at a level which encourages one to spend their cash on beverages.

While I was minding my own business the other day, just roaming the streets of Melbourne, with the intention of purchasing items I have no use for, I received a startling text message...One of my poor friends has started back at university a few days before I am due to commence and she sent me quite an amusing message.
All she had written in the message was – “tracksuit attire...no runners”. I thought ok - gosh what has this person put under their tracksuit – like no runners, so maybe slippers? She thought it was the funniest thing she had ever seen and it kept her entertained while she attempted to be productive. In the meantime I was still trying to work out what this person had teamed up with their trackies. I never in my life thought somebody would strut down the street wearing a matching tracksuit and a pair of heels so my reply was slippers... I was going to say thongs but thongs and trackies are fine to wear and me and her both wore them together so I thought well she would not be bringing that up...
