FUN WITH THE FASHION ILLITERATE 3

HATS 3 - VARIOUS

MAN HEAD SCARVES / MOLDED BANDANNA / KERCHIEF

With the obvious exception for medical conditions and religious observance, there are only a couple of excuses for wearing one of these. If you’re not actually on a Harley, adjacent to your Harley, at an establishment that caters to Harley guys with your Harley parked by the front door, or you’re perhaps wearing it under your football helmet, you look like a douchebag.

Wearing your man scarf on the subway is about as appropriate as wearing your prom dress to the swimming pool. And by the way, there’s probably a real Harley guy in your vicinity impatiently waiting for you to get mildly lippy so he can kick your ass.
This guy's just plain funny - we'll be seeing more of him

SWEAT BANDANNAS

You can wear a sweat bandanna if it helps keep the sweat out of your eyes, but don’t think it works off the basketball court. A good clue is if you’re wearing jeans, you should go ahead and keep the bandanna in your pocket.

GANGSTA LIDS – flat-billed baseball hats pulled low, sideways, backwards.

This look only works for a few people in a very small age range. And if you’re reading this, it’s not you. Hell, if you know someone that might have read this or discussed reading in general, it’s not you. The side effect, which is fun to observe, is you’re immediately the prime suspect wherever you go. Somebody threw something at someone – you probably did it. Somebody threw the first punch – you probably did it. Somebody might be shoplifting – you’re the guy security is watching. And by the way, there is a real “gangsta” somewhere in your vicinity that is impatiently waiting for you to get mildly lippy so he can kick your ass.

Got a problem with the headgear not matching the Walmart bag and Daiquiri
