This is the New Preppie (Nu Prep), FNB. Prep has now mutated into a global look with all manner of influences chucked in. Bushy hipster beards, shaved in hair and untamed manes all add an 'interesting' counter point to the sober earthy ensembles these cats are putting together.

The massive leather bags are a nice touch too, I think. I think the unspoken rule with these oversized bags is that one should be big enough to fit either a picnic blanket and at least 2 bottles of champagne or the folded up corpse of that Honduran housecleaner who you thought was stealing silverware.

I'm pretty sure if you collected all of Liam Mac's posts, you could produce quite a successful book.

Yeah, but once you've got them out of the gilded rut they tend to go completely apeshit. This can be a lot of fun.

On a similar note, Ed Hill of Ed Hill PR lets us all know how he feels about women with tattoos:

"Of course, if you're a girl with a lower back tattoo, the most appropriate wording would be "Welcome Aboard!"." For those who lack the time to fully parse his remarks, he has offered the witty opinion that women with tattoos on their lower backs intend their tattoos to invite heterosexual penetrative sexual intercourse (knows as "penis in vagina" or "PGV" in the sex studies world). A fresh and charming observation! But Mr. Hill, ever modest, makes sure to cite his sources: "To give proper credit, I heard the Welcome aboard joke in reference to a man in an old film about submarines. I can't remember the film." I suppose he does not wish us to think that he is a world-class wit who could casually toss off original bon mots of this caliber.
