I look phat / Mink coat, seal shoes, elk hat / don't forget my Tyrannosaurus Rex / turtlenecks

― Ramosi, Monday, 4 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Black cordouroy trousis, black polo neck, burgundy large cardigan which I have stolen off the Arsemonkey which is HUGE and has GIANT HOLES in it and is my new favourite cardigan EVAH. Black socks! I do not know if they match perfectly but both are black! Also NEW BALANCE 802s, Brian called them my 'urban warrior' trainers, apparently they are ALL TERRAIN RUNNING SHOES which is a larff as I only evah run for the train in the mornings. Though, not bad for about a fivah.

WHY ARE THEY CALLED TURTLE NECKS IN AMERICA? Also why do we call them POLO NECKS? How come they are different to polo shirts?! Do turtle necks = UK polo necks?

― Sarah, Monday, 4 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I think it's because turtles have the ability to submerge/protect their neck in their shell when situations get hectic, therefore "turtleneck" for humans = "damn it's cold, good thing I got my turtleneck.....hell, I could roll it up a bit and submerge my neck further in warmth as a turtle would, if I so desired!" See?!? But check it out, as a youngster, turtlenecks were not my forte....my head was too big for my body.....turtlenecks only magnified this growth discrepancy....only when skiing....and even then I tried to roll it down....glorious was the day my body caught up and I wore a turtleneck the normal way, rolled up....it's like the story of one of those men who get "un-circumsized"....

― Ramosi, Monday, 4 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh, yes, they are indeed the US equivalent to Polo necks. Brits probably invented the term but Yanks had to modify it as noone plays polo here.....lots of people here wear Polo Ralph Lauren, though...lots of puerto ricans....RIP BIG PUN

― Ramosi, Monday, 4 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Are you suggesting that Americans can more readily identify sartorially with turtles than with hoity-toity polo players?

― Sam, Monday, 4 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The same trousers I always wear (if you'd seen what I wear instead when I have to go down the launderette, you'd understand), dark blue Kickers T-Shirt, black jumper with disproportionately tight sleeves that I haven't worn for months for no discernable reason, my newly replenished springy metal Swatch, and terrifying fingernails (I've broken my clippers).

Well, one tries to keep abreast of current trends, but I wasn't totally sure of my stylists' advice on this one.

I'm wearing smart black troosers from N3w L00k, a really quite nice red top in some kind of shinyish stretchy material with 3/4 length sleeves from H&M, on a HANGER over there is a POSH BLACK JACKET with hem hem, pink lining (with red top, I know, yikes), ODD SOX, black converse trainers with a star on em, also UNDERWEAR. I haf some smart black shoes sat next to me. Red suits me! Yay.

― Sarah, Thursday, 14 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It doesn't suit me I have decided. But this is still a nice top. It is sort of slashed right across from shoulder to shoulder so I have to let my bra straps go half way down my arms. Wearing it with a STUPID but very cute black 50s style flary skirt which would be ideal for curtseying, flowery lacey tights and this HUGE tacky ring I bought yesterday which is silver with a GINORMOUS and utterly unconvincing square cut diamond thing on it.

― Emma, Thursday, 14 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Blue cargo jeans type things. Navy scuzzy filthy skateshoes covered in clubjuice, but so comfy and always to be worn on nights out as a result. Navy levis zipup hoody and a white t shirt.
