Let's all try and avoid these devastating fashion faux pas.
#1. Backwards Baseball Hat

Do you play catcher for a major league ball club? Minor league? Local softball team? No? Then don't do this.
#2. Oakley Blades

Your Tour de France riding days are over, pal.
#3. Bluetooth Headset

1. Trust us, you're not that important.
2. You're now just one-degree removed from Lando Calrissian's bald android assistant.
#4. Gold Necklace

Rap moguls, NBA stars, and Mr. T excluded. Some white guy from the 'burbs, nuh uh.
#5. Tommy Bahama Shirt

When in Hawaii, this is OK. In the upper 49, toolbag.
#6. National Review Magazine

In close association with bad style, bad politics.
#7. Belt-clipped Cell Phone

Scream "I am a middle manager!" a little louder. The guy across the street didn't hear you.
#8. "cause" Wristband

Exceptions made if you or immediate family member is battling various wristband maladies. Otherwise, grab a scissors.
#9. over-the-knee double-pleated shorts
http://www.magnificentbastard.com/im...toolbag-09.jpg
Two things wrong here:
1. 4 pleats.
2. Over the knee.
#10. Crocs
