Wearing of Braces...

[Dinger2]

I occasionaly wear braces to hold my trousers up as an alternative to a belt, My Mum is constantly slating me..like, 'you look like an old man in those', 'They're the opposite of cool', 'they are NOT fashionable' etc; I completely disagree and say who is the judge of that then? So opinions gratefully received.

In the 80s red braces were cool. They were part of the yuppie uniform.

Anybody know what is wrong with this link? I just checked it by sending it to myself via email and it works fine. Why is it going to report?

Dinger if you want to google it is called fashionbeans.com.

As a rule of thumb you should never take fashion advice off your mum. The things your parents think are cool will be 20 years out of date.

I like braces, I have been debating getting some for myself, but then again im old and wrinkly, how old are you Dinger2.

I know a lot of City high flyers who wear braces - and they don't dress unfashionably - or cheaply - by any means.

If you're under 12 you should take your mum's fashion advice seriously.

My daughters come to me for fashion advice quite a lot, my younger daughter (23) is always raiding my wardrobe. Not all parents are old fashioned and out of touch :)
