OMG - death. Yes, it sounds harsh, but then so are speedos [img]graemlins/idontagreeatall.gif[/img]

Totally white sneakers aren't really that fashionable anyway, so the white-on-white issue is a bit moot. Most trendy sports socks are short ankle socks too, so you aren't seeing a huge sea of white. This also helps the shorts with trainers dealy. Most guys are going with the jesus sandals/deck shoes/leather thongs (like you might get in Colorado [the shop, not the state]) for a casual occasion, I think. I particularly hate jeans with white sneakers. No good at all. I blame Jerry Seinfeld for that disaster.

I love clothes and fashion. I don't agree with mad=dog's "Do not trust advertisement or other media. They generally only stay fresh for a few months - your life lasts to the final breath." - what does the length of your life have to do with the clothes you wear? Are you suggesting that people should wear the exact same style for the rest of their lives? I like buying new clothes every season - I find myself getting so weary of all my old clothes by the end of winter or summer that I need to go shopping to spice up my wardrobe. I don't usually buy a lot of things but enough to spruce myself up a bit. Of course there are certain types of clothes I would never wear regardless of whether they are considered 'trendy' this season, because they just wouldn't suit me or I don't think they look good. But there's nothing wrong with following trends as long as you spend within your means and pick styles that flatter you.

And of course like any respectable woman, I love me some shoes. I am loving having to dress up more for uni these days with working at the psych clinic - I can indulge my love of frivolous high heels without knowing I have nowhere to wear them.
