Fashion {Non}Sense

Some of our favorite memories regarding Dad involve his wardrobe.  This is not meant to embarrass him, but rather point out how thankful we are that his fashion sense has evolved!  

WARNING: All of what you are about to read is true! 

He once owned a red and black jean jacket that he brought from the 80's well into the 90's.

He had a pair of... wait for it... emerald green slacks that he wore to church {more than once}.

He literally wore out a pair of black acid wash jean shorts.  I was going to talk more about this, but there's so much wrong with that statement already that I'll leave it as is. 

He had a pair of jeans that were white on the front and blue on the back.

He had a pair of multicolored striped shorts {purple, green, gold, black}.

He would get his jeans dry-cleaned with heavy starch and creases down the center of the legs.

He had velcro sandals and was well beyond the age of 4.

He wore out a tank top that had "Smitty" airbrushed on the front.

He has {present tense} a Hard Rock t-shirt that is extra wide {XXL} and extra short {think midriff}.  We're working on sneaking this out of his luggage as soon as possible and burning it!   

He wasn't completely uncool... back in the day he rocked what he calls a TWA {teeny weeny afro} and he looked pretty damn cool!
