Turtlenecks… UFF!! They are everywhere!
IdeasEvolved.com thanks Maleeka Saqlain for this contribution.
This article is strictly aimed at males- i.e. the male population between ages 15-30. Girls will mostly agree (i am sure!).
I often marvel at this one amazing quality in
guys; not really bothering much about their clothing. Seldom have I encountered a guy fretting about his attire, let alone appearing self-conscious. This is a quality so contrary to the female genetic make-up who are programmed to instinctively pay heed (over attention in most cases) to their attire.
So, where I find this unique kind of male fascinating; sometimes, however, it does leave me astonished and bewildered- for all the wrong reasons. Recently, this astonishment has exalted, owing to an article of clothing that is very popular among guys nowadays. Every third guy seems to be hooked to wearing them- Turtlenecks… UFF!! They are everywhere!
Sure turtleneck sweater in itself is an attractive piece of clothing, but really guys-please pay a weee bit attention: is it really your thing?? Does it really make you look attractive??
Everybody has taken to wearing turtlenecks. Sure they look smart, and well-suited, but only if worn properly.
I still remember the most attractive turtleneck sweater-which by the way is rare! It was a deep purple turtleneck with a single black stripe. GOD!! the guy looked ‘drop-dead handsome!!’, owing to the guy who carried it off so well.
And, there is a long, long, looong list of turtlenecks that- well…make you cringe at sight, you really are forced to say: What exactly were you thinking, dude???!!!!
Chief winners of this categories being sky blue one with orange and navy blue stipes and the other which was multi-colored-’Tuttifruity-ish!’ and to top it up, had smudgy, bizarre patterns. It sure looked disastrous!!
An attractive turtleneck, with snug fitting is obviously not for every guy. If you fall into the skinny or slender types, turtlenecks make you look like a swan- with a long not-so-graceful neck, highly inappropriate guys!!
Plus if the snug fitting doesn’t hug your shoulders appropriately, you look drab.
Turtleneck sweaters are also not your thing if you fall in the hefty, gluttony category.
Dudes, please Stop considering yourselves contemporaries of the Cambridge, Bonanza advertisement models, who fill those polar necks perfectly!! Stick to reality, view yourself in a more realistic light and please give yourself one good look before you step out!
By now you would be wondering what’s this girl’s problem, why on earth is she writing an entire article about this.. Because it bloody hurts my eyes ;(






I'd write a reply to this attack on men's sense of attire if I thought it would be any use.
With no intention of being rude or offensive, everyone has a right to their choice of clothing and even though it may look rather repelling, one has a freedom of choice regarding this.
Likewise, girls sometimes adopt a rather vicarious sense of style on which I'll not go upon any further. Does not mean a person cannot wear something he/she likes. =D
An attack? Don't you think thats an overstatement?
Not really. Since i quote the writer here "but really guys-please pay a weee bit attention: is it really your thing?? Does it really make you look attractive??"
If anyone wanted to talk about that in a the women's fashion style, I am sure there could be endless criticism over there chosen clothing at the occasions. If someone wants to wear something that it is not really suited for their physique they shouldn't be barred from wearing it.
How many times have you seen a rather chubby woman wearing sleeveless and people just staring dumbfounded on what the wear-er was thinking,,
In such occasions, I'd say to each his/her own. =D
well, u have seriously kept ur eye not only on how i looks but also on whats around in turtlenecks. good.
didn't know about ur interest in fashion( designs ).
and not against this article but its true as i noticed quite the same about girls wearing LONG sweaters. some really beautiful, lovely designs made look ugly just by who and the way they were carried.
there was this really beautiful pink sweater with some white in it that i saw at my store. 2 days after i was a skinny short girl wearing it the market. it was almost turned into a gown, the shoulder strip coming down to where a half sleeves top would have its sleeves. AWKWARD
so i do agree to sense of attire.
P.s: Try wearing shades or avoid places where people wear turtlenecks because there is a fat chance people are going to change their fashion style =P
Hahahahahaha i can't believe this stuff is being taken so seriously
Way to go boys! You tell them ignorant girls
In ko kaho apne gir-e-baan mai jhaank kar k do dekhain
Waterloo warrior….u certainly r doing justice to your name, Btw!:-P
Well, yes everybody has a right to dress anyway they want. But then again I have a right to voice my opinion about it, since i am writing dis article!
I do not support females dressing pathetically either!
yet u are criticizing the way menfolk dress?
maybe people will pick a hint or two =P
If you want to write an article, start with a fair stance at least :p and try asking the girls to dress properly first
as the gentlemen say, ladies first
Maleeeeka! I never thought you would write something about fashion. :O What happened to politics?
Good job though.
Waterloo Warrior: The next time i will write about Inappropriate female attire, and criticize them likewise!
Shajeeha
olitics is still somewhat on!:-P
thanks!
I'll await that article
