  • Surely now you are a fashion icon we will not be seeing you wearing the same shirt again, just like Posh who never wears the same outfit in public.

    Would never dare suggest such a thing!

    Though I am sure you can make floral shirts a fashion must have in the same way that you have done with the striped variety.

    Funnily enough that was in the dress code for It Pays To Watch, under the guise of stripes don't do well on TV but was it really there so as not to outstripe Martin :D
  • Hey, how about tiger/zebra stripes?! (Only kidding, no, really, please don't!!)

    I agree about florals....they're cool.

  • I don't mind the stripey shirts, it's the stripey ones with the white collars - I never trust a man wearing one of those!

    It's men in mockinsons and white socks that do it for me, I mean not in a exciting way but it makes me feel physically sick!!!
