Super skinny jeans
Those shoes are a bit wide for narrow-cut jeans..makes a guy look like a duck.
Adidas Samba indoor socker shoes work well, or just a simple canvas shoe I've been a fan of narrow and tight jeans since I was only a wee lad...I thought they were way cool. |
fashion
Teddy means Edward - the fashion started as a recreation of the elegance of the Edwardian period but then diversified all over the place - and the sartorial combinations came (often shockingly) thick and fast.
Nothing new in fashion of course - just wait a few years for a trend to reappear (I still await the massive hair quiff and the drape jacket collar in velvet) (my next chapter will cover mods and rockers........):) |
