16 comments, boys and girls, ladies and gents. That is my magic number every time. I should ruin it by making unnecessary replies but meh. We all love a little running coincidence.
I had a. lot. of sambuca last night, plus wine, minus dinner. Which led to errors in judgement and the hangover blues.
But on to serious matters. Boys and mullets, to be precise. You see, we all laughed a little when the mu-lay came into fashion. It was tongue-in-cheek, referent, the way all good fashion is meant to be. Good fashion can also be recognised because it is favoured by a select few. As this week's NW saliently noted, Victoria Beckham will never be a true fashion icon because she is unable to create trends; she merely follows them note-perfectly. (Although that boob job is a bit dodge.) So, following this logic, when Good Fashion is slavishly followed by the unwashed masses, it becomes Bad Fashion. (See my entire wardrobe for more on this.)
The Mullet is Bad Fashion. It stopped being funny when all the boys started doing it. Now, it's no longer a quirky trend that you can explain away with words like "penchant" and "irony". Men, the joke is over. Make it funny. Cut your goddamn neckfur and make it funny.
O, how I miss the Fauxhawk.
