I've never had much use for "fashion" trends, some of which seem downright silly. In clothing, this has never been much of a problem a there is usually a wide variety of styles for me to choose from.

For other consumer goods though, I've often found myself somewhat frustrated. Vehicles currently fall into this category (now mostly gray, black or white SUVs, pickups, or minivans with automatic transmissions and faaaar too many useless electronic gizmos). Furniture and appliances pose the same sort of problem. The manufacturers jump onto the current trends like crows onto roadkill.

So much depends on one's body type. I choose clothes that take off five pounds and they must have pockets. One side for house and car keys. The other side for smart phone. Neutral colors are best. Add a little flair with accessories. Fads don't always work.

Reading through this thread, I can't find any objection to old cars, wide lapels, or hats.

There again, nor is there anyone who is adverse to: Argyle socks, two tone spectator shoes, fedoras and striped ties.
There's hope for me yet.

Overalls on women in the 90s and dark lipstick. And turtlenecks

Gosh... when it comes to dress clothing, nothing is off the table with me.

The white and blue dress oxfords are a dream, Horseless!

You and your wife look so dashing!

P.S. Please pass along to your wife, how beautiful she looks!

Marg, you did the lady's ego a power of good. She has to take steroids as a medication, they have caused weight increase, she's sensitive to that, so your compliment was a blessing. Much appreciated, or as the lady put it: "Aw shucks!"
