Another fashion update

Patrick Kingsley takes to the streets in men's leggings

First the skinny Jeans, Yoga Pants, Crouch Gusset pants and now there are Meggings.  Meggings are: Meggings are real, and they’re getting an increasing amount of attention because of celebrities like Justin Bieber, Russell Brand and Lenny Kravitz. Proud “meggers” are all about them, though most shun meggings as an affront to masculinity. But could you pull them off? Celebrity stylist Ken Thompson shared his tips for pulling off meggings with The Australian.  Men in meggings aren’t expected to travel “below the latte belt,” and he warns that early adopters of meggings need to take them seriously.  “If  you have to wear meggings, go formal on top with a crisp white shirt that is long enough at the front to avoid stares and make sure that you’ve had a decent calf workout,” Thompson told The Australian.  There you go, folks. The rest is up to you.  And it looks like meggings are here to stay, by the way. “Meggings are not a gimmick because the guys who wear meggings aren’t doing it ironically—they genuinely believe it’s a good look,” GQ senior editor Will Welch told Yahoo!. “So it’s a real trend.”   http://www.businessinsider.com/what-shirt-to-wear-with-meggings-2012-12#ixzz2HJYhfyTI

      1. Yes, great idea Donna! I can see that WordPress is going through growing pains, as the Reply button under your comment to Kim said Replyly. Facebook is also in continual change. Guess you just have to go with it, and it always settles down.

        1. Thanks Fred, it has settled down, sometimes when a new product comes out you have to go with the flow and eventually the bugs work themselves out, it seems on very busy days, like New Years’ Day it was very weird. I have figured ways around it and take it as it comes. Hope to see you soon..

      1. Donna and Ladies– we simply have to organize this as a fund raiser–Gloucester Guys in GMG Meggings. Think of all the folks who would pay money to see these tough manscaping, lobstering, video camera wielding, PR-making, Greasy Pole-walking, and of course hubbies too, in meggings!!!!

        1. I’m fairly certain that’s the first time anyone has ever implied that video-camera-wielding (our boy Craig) and PR-making are tough professions. It’s true, sometimes I do jam a finger on my keyboard writing a press release. Thanks, Kim. 🙂

          What a fun post, Donna.

  2. Do raggity old sweat pants count as meggings???
    If so, I qualify as a hipster….. at least around the house…. wouldn’t dream of going out in public that way….
    But, if the Jehova’s come knocking at my door, all bets are off.

  3. What’s wrong with madras shorts?
    I saw Eric Clapton wearing them at an outdoor concert in Chicago.
    He is one of the coolest people around.
