Is it the clothes you wear?

Or is it the way you wear it?

Even after two whole days of sitting in the TANGS window display, I still cant put my finger on it. I’ve been around sexy, expensive designer clothes for longer than I spend at home, yet I can’t tell for sure if style is really defined by what you wear, or who wears it.

Silly, I know, but hey I’m silly like that.

Personally, I almost never wear slacks. I’m almost always either in a pair of jeans or in a pair of shorts.

I’m also almost always in a tshirt…

But when I’m not, I enjoy wearing plaid shirts…

Occasionally, I put on a jacket…

But we’re in Malaysia, and a lot of jackets are unfortunately off limits…

Finally, my headgear of choice is a truckers cap…

So a regular dress up day would look something like this…

Or this…

Or this..

Or even this…

OK. So I don’t have much style per se. And I can’t blame you for saying that either. Like the old saying goes – one man’s meat is another man’s poison – so I’ve come to the conclusion that style isn’t about what you wear, but rather who wears it. Confidence is definitely the key, so after a long “explanation” to the simple question of “what defines style”, I’d have to say…

YOU do.

    On a more serious note…in the wise words of Coco Chanel “Fashion comes and goes, but style stays forever”. So even with all the money in the world to buy haute couture or designer fashion, if you ain’t got (the right) style (that suits you)…then you just ain’t got it.

    Basically what you’re comfortable of wearing and at different occasions and also the mood is the style of yourself as individual. Not really to define your own style but to define your confident of wearing it.

    Style comes in cheap way or in a expensive way. So much likely depend on oneself ability to carry out. If you’re confident, you would lavishly in style.

    Since I have no ability to post anything intellectual whatsoever, I shall talk about something completely irrelevant: how Wern Shen smells.

  6. TestiKel says:

    Many of you may not realise, but Wern Shen smells rather odd. I would say that it’s a mixture of coconut and cockroch fart. It’s almost as if he likes that insects crawl up his leg and nest in his crotch.

  7. TestiKel says:

    However, I’ve learned to cope with it with a secret tactic: think about Ris Low. In fact, that is a solution to any predicament: if you’re in a bind – GO FOR BOOMZ.

    And now, time for dindin. Sorry man, even your number #1 has to eat. And, we’re at 20 words, thanks.

    Since my dinner is running a bit late, I can talk summore. Wern Shen, there is a possibility you might win this. If so, let’s talk about what I ought to be getting as a reward.
