Don't know about you all, but I can't relate to this....
O.K. Yeh Yeh - My woman changed my style a BIT, pry for the better - But this chit.. Metrosexuals only need RE: ![]() "Men, We Dare You to Be THIS Bold! Only men who are secure, sophisticated, and daring can do what the menswear designers, retailers, and style magazines are jointly promoting: wear PINK. As in pink dress shirts, pink ties, and even pink boots and pink sweaters. We're talking everything from a soft pastel to bright coral to shocking fuchsia. Oh my! You won't believe what men do in private. Click to find out the surprising answer. That's the word from The Wall Street Journal, which noted that pink--long reserved for the likes of Barbie, Cinderella, and Victoria's Secret--isn't exactly the wardrobe color desire of many men. Until now. Who's pushing pink on guys who think khakis and a blue shirt are just fine, thank you very much? It would be Italy's Etro, Germany's Hugo Boss, and America's Tommy Hilfiger. Guys, you don't stand a chance. It's a worldwide assault. "Men's style magazines are dressing masculine types in colors reminiscent of baby blankets or Pepto Bismol," Wall Street Journal reporter Cecilie Rohwedder colorfully writes. Ladies, you may not believe this, but we have it on good authority that when men get together in private they talk about... Why pink? Why now? "The world is a bit of a dark place right now. People want to go out and feel happy about themselves," Peter Nyhan, general merchandise manager for menswear at Harrods in London, told the Journal. Proof positive: A hot pink blazer is all the rage at Harrods. We kid you not. This isn't just a metrosexual or "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" movement. This is about the everyman. "Traditional gender barriers are breaking down," Cliff Hunt, manager of a trendy New York menswear store called Paul Smith, explained to the Journal. Just think pink! It's the new macho color.

Pink can look good if it's not overdone. I prefer purple. But more often than not, i'm a jeans and t-shirt kind of guy.

Methinks you protest to much. ;-))) Pink? I bought my wife a pink porsche once , special order. My wife loved the car. I never drove it but once. The car needed to go to Porsche for servicing so a friend of mine and I volenteered to drive it there. Got caught in traffic by a highway construction. As I said , I only drove it once |

Hahaha.. no I just know my sense of "fashion" and pink isn't any part of it.
My wife used to beg and plead for me to dress preppy and I just couldn't do it. I'm a jeans and t-shirt kinda guy who can occasioanlly wear a shirt with a collar when need be. The only exception was when I was working as a Floor Supervisor or Pit boss when i used to work at casinos. I truly enjoyed wearing a suit and I LOVED buying ties. My absolute favorites were the endanegered species and other animal ties. I also wore very nice cowboy boots with my suits more often than i did dress shoes.

BTW- just to make you happy. Anyone who has met me in recent years and didn't know I used to wear a suit and tie all the time would never guess that one of my favorite suits was a Navy Blue 100% silk suit. It was sweet!! The women absolutely loved it!!
