I like to think most of my fashion choices are valid. I mean I've lived in the southeast and never owned any Realtree. My fedora phase was mercifully short.

But I like my denim jacket. God help you if you try to mess with my Canadian tuxedo!
 
I honestly love to wear a well fitted suit and have 43 neckties in my closet just collecting dust because I have no reason to wear them anymore. I also have a thing for aviator sunglasses with clear color lenses, none of that mirrored cop shit.

I now want to see Himmler in a Hawaiian shirt. I tried to Google it but all I could find was this.
The one that Uncle Adolf is wearing is still lame by my standards :\
The thing that gets me the most is my wife "Do as I say, not as I do" approach, because she too wears some dresses that looks like the ones my grandmother wore.
And in winter she almost always wears sweaters: nothing to say when she puts those dark, elegant and form fitting turtlenecks, but then she dishes out those baggy, striped and oversized sweaters that make her look like one of those Albanian/Serbian trashy shopkeepers. And she goes to work dressed like that.
 
I mostly live in metal band shirts and jeans like any good thrash fan. I do like to over-embelish my jackets with pins and patches. My punk-metal chick vibe sometimes gets confused for a "butch lesbian" vibe by other people, so that gets awkward.:lol:
For the summer, I have a collection of Hawaiian shirts that everyone in my life hates.
Some are pretty normal, in blue, green and red/pink tonalities; but others have pretty outrageous patterns and violently clashing color combos, and hurt the eye just by looking at them.
My wife has a pure and unedulcorated hatred for them, and has tried to throw them away a couple of times already.
I fuckin' rocked Hawaiian shirts as a kid. I'd pick out really loud fabric and my mom would sew them for me. I was so slammin.
There was a point where I was crazy into flame motifs. Young me's idea of cool was basically Guy Fieri's idea of cool.

I used to have a ton of super nice silk Hawaiian shirts. I loved them. Then I gained weight after college and was too fat to squeeze into them so I gave them away to my younger cousin.

I've since lost weight and regret giving them away. I would totally get more Hawaiian shirts, but they're super expensive these days.

Anyway, I love my Doc Martens. Don't care what people say, I've been wearing them since the early 90s.
 
Is wearing tons of camo outside the military considered tacky?
