When I am wearing them, it feels like a Homer-Simpson-esque 3 day stubble magically appears on my face. They make me feel and look scruffy.
Maybe its also the egshell/off-white colour, which doesn't suit my skin colour?
The solution is to wear them under a sweater.
They tend not to have that effect on most other people.
Ok, but I am not "other people"!
Imagine a good-looking guy in a wheelchair, who lost his legs while trying to rescue a disabled migrant woman from a war zone!! And that guy cannot, say, move up the stairs to the entrance of a newly opened Hollister flagship store! Just because "other people" can easily walk up the steps, would you also say to him what you said to me?
Perhaps the man in the wheelchair would look smart in a Cordings shirt (or perhaps almost any shirt) due to having a sense of style where as someone lacking such a grace may look like, well... Homer?
I think The Bard said it best when he penned: The fault lies not in our clothes but in ourselves.
Words to live by...my dear Beesty.
OK!
What if the protagonist is a female woman!
And she is trying to access the Laura Ashley shop, but the wheelchair cannot climb the stairs.
Are the people in the shop "OTHER PEOPLE"?
