've just come across a few sets of photos taken when I was in Primary school. I look ridiculous. In one I'm wearing a pink cardigan. In another I'm wearing a shocking bodywarmer. There's another of me in a soccer team lineout with a ginger affro.
There was me thinking I've always had great taste. If your thinking about hoking out some old photos - DON'T!!!!!!! Leave well alone.
Any fashion faux pas?

Your a brave man admitting to that ;D I don't think I look too bad in any of my old photos but I didn't have any sense of fashion when I was younger. There was one thing I use to love wearing which my ex girlfriend hated, my white addidas tracksuit pants; there was nothing wrong with them really, she just didn't like them for some reason.
She claimed they made me stick out like a sore thumb and she was delighted when I accidentally burnt them with the Iron whilst Ironing them, i'm sure it was fate.
I was suppose to be meeting her mates for the first time one time but when she found out what I was wearing, she ordered me to change them but I didn't want to be dressed up like a Ken Doll so I refused to go.
Thats the most controversial item of clothing I've had to date.

lol I had a multicoloured bomber jacket at primary school. Argh, it was truly monstrous. I chose it specially for my birthday aswell. And I wore all my brothers old clothes too. Lots of turn-ups.
But I had these Dennis the Menace sneakers which were sooo kool. And does anyone remember those jumpers which you could turn inside out?

My wife used to hate me wearing white Levi jeans. I never understood why. I wore white tennis socks for years and then the day before I started university I went down town and bought about 10 pairs of black socks so I didn't stick out like a sore thumb.

I've alwyas kind of been into fashion although, I grew up in the 80's so it's a very funny thing to go through my old photos.

I wonder is there anybody out there brave enough to scan a photo onto the Forum! Then we could see some of these lovely fashion faux pas in all their glory.
It'll not be me, I can tell you that right know.

I've never been much for fashion myself.
You should see the crap I'm wearing now!

I cant really think of any fashion mistakes I've made, I've just worn similar safe clothing all my life, T shirt and jeans mostly. I suppose the worse thing is the free NHS glasses I used to ware which looked terrible on me.
I really dont look good in photos at all, I hate having my photo taken. I always have a really odd expression on my face.

Hmm when i was 14 i insisted on a perm....which i maybe would have got away with if my hair wasn't so long and blonde ...it ended up looking like an afro which to be frank not much has changed considering it still looks like that when i wake up in the morning ;D Ah I did the perm thing once.  It got done too tight and I looked like a poodle  lol |
