Shabby chic and sprezzatura doesnt work for me

When my button down collars are unbuttoned,
my face is not shaven,
my hair is ruffled,
my polo shirt collar is turned up,

I look like a bum.

When my end-on-end shirts are frayed,
I look like a bum.


I LOVE , this foum

It's better than shabby without the chic.

It doesn't even look right when I am drinking beer from a bottle - it has to be a proper Pilstulpe.

A weakling, he even started going sans tie in a pathetic attempt to be inclusive for the new London reality and demographic.

So do you want to look like a bum or not?

Aye, never was there such a useless chinless wonder shoehorned in for ultimate non-effect.

New  clothes make me feel like mommy dressed me for the first day of school.  The clothing doesn't really feel like it's mine until it shows some sign of wear.
