Lois cords, Pringle jumper over a Lyle and Scott. If it's a posh do, Farahs and a blazer.

I saw a young lad in the kitchen at work today in a pair of Farahs. Are they now cool again? I loved them,used to wear them to school in the early 80's. Then suddenly they were just a complete no-no.
Maybe you have to be under 25 to wear them now? Shame.

No socks, pastel jacket (padded of course) and some deck shoes.

Shiny suit with sleeves rolled up, skinny tie, and slip ons with no socks.

Or, if you have the balls - go new romantic - tartan strides, pixie boots, frilly shirt and plenty of eye liner...
