Fashionista 101: Propped Collar, Handbag Pursies

Here are some mistakes that I see some Singaporean guys make and for each fashionista 101 post, I will include about 1-5 fashion mistakes and disasters that Singaporean guys make. Well, Singaporean guys are good at a lot of things like eating, partying, keeping to rules and regulations, becoming millionaires (almost 60% of the population are millionaires but not rich because housing and automobiles already take away 80% of their fortune) and etc. But, if there is one thing most Singaporean men are NOT good at it would be dressing up. Trust me. Even my dad faults some of them. It irks me and I think I've had enough. I hope some of you see this and try your very very best to changes your ways. Either that or I hope Santa Claus would do me a favor and drop a visit to everyone of you and place a spell to cleanse Singapore of men that faults fashion codes. I agree that dressing should be personal and sometimes you just want to kick back and relax and dress lightly without the care of the world, but, can you have some sense of decency and dress at least to the level that will not hurt people's eyes or their minds.

So here goes.

Fashionista Mistake:

Propped Collars on Polo Tees.

I don't have anything against polo tees but wearing it with the collars propped up is seriously not stunning, not elegant and simply, a way for all the girls and guys to shun you. If you are from the count Dracula era or would like to cosplay as the count, be my guest, but it won't be getting you any attention from the girls and guys looking like you come from the 1800s. By the way, I believe the propping of collars for the draculas are because they fear the sunlight. Similarly, the sunlight touching your delicate necks can cause some sort of a sunburn in the hot and sunny weather of Singapore. But, the way to go about it isn't to wear propped collars. Instead, please go to the nearest guardian or watson store to purchase a sunblock. Please! Shed the propped collars. They simply aren't cool and won't get you any attention save the weird looks. Just for the love of god and everyone, this is how the story goes: René Lacoste who was the inventor of the polo shirt used to pop up his collar during tennis matches when the heat of the sun was too strong and thus he wanted to protect his neck. Now I'm sure 99% of the men who pop up their polo shirt collars on the street don't do it to protect their necks , they do it because they think it's cool. It's not. It makes you look like you have no neck, no backbone and a total douche bag.

Fashionista Mistake

Purse and Handbag carrying

I am sure you have seen some men carrying the purses/handbags of their girlfriends or wives. The concern here is whether or not women really need their men to carry their purses and handbags around looking like what the noose calls them, "pursies". I'm glad I'm into men (or rather, cute boys like myself) such that I don't have to lower myself to carry the handbags of one's girlfriend. It irks me that if you want to bring a bag, then carry the effing bag yourself! It's no one's job to carry your bag. Women, please stop making your men look like pussies. They do no help to make you look overbearing. It actually makes them look like a total loser. Tie a noose around their neck on other stuff. But if you really love your men, you wouldn't berate him by asking him to carry your purse. Ask him to carry your shopping bags but don't ask him to carry your tiny purse. Carry it yourself!

That's all I have for today. Leave a comment if you have any fashion no-no's you want me to do or if you need help with any fashion problems.
