Well, let me tell you, this street fall fashion, it ain’t like the old days. Back then, we just wore what kept us warm. Now, it’s all about lookin’ fancy, even when it’s cold enough to freeze your toes off. It’s crazy what folks wear these days!
They got these big ol’ coats, some look like they’re made outta leather. I saw one girl walkin’ down the street, looked like she was wearin’ a whole cow! And the colors! Lordy, so many colors. Burgundy, they call it. Like the wine, I reckon. Fall fashion, huh? More like show-off fashion if you ask me. But hey, what do I know? I’m just sayin’.
And the shoes! These young folks, they wear all kinds of things on their feet. Big ol’ boots, sometimes with pointy toes. Makes my feet hurt just lookin’ at ’em. I seen one girl wearin’ shoes that looked like they were made of tin foil! Shiny and sparkly. Not practical at all. How you gonna walk through a puddle in those? Fall fashion, they say.
- Big coats
- Shiny shoes
- Lots of colors
- Funny hats
And them purses! They call ’em handbags now. So big, you could fit a whole chicken in there! And some of them are so tiny, you couldn’t even fit a handkerchief. What’s the point of that? And they got all these fancy names for ’em. I don’t keep up with all that. A purse is a purse, far as I’m concerned. These street style folks have strange ideas.
They got these things called “knits.” Like sweaters, but fancy, I guess. Some of ’em are so thin, you can see right through ’em. Wouldn’t keep a fly warm in the winter, I tell ya. But they look nice, I suppose. All different colors and patterns. I saw one that looked like a rainbow threw up on it. These fall looks make no sense to me.
Then there’s the hats. Oh, the hats! Big ones, small ones, some look like they belong on a scarecrow. And they wear ’em even when it ain’t that cold. Just for show, I reckon. I saw one fella wearin’ a hat that looked like a bird’s nest. Honest to goodness. Street fall fashion, they call it.
These young folks, they layer their clothes. Like a cake! Shirt, then a sweater, then a jacket, then a scarf. Looks like they’re gettin’ ready for a blizzard, even when it’s just a little chilly. I don’t understand it. I just put on my coat and I’m good to go. No need for all that fuss. Must be something to do with fashion week, I imagine.
They got these skirts, too. Short little things, they call ’em “miniskirts.” Barely cover your backside! And they wear ’em in the fall, when it’s startin’ to get cold. Don’t make no sense to me. You’re gonna catch your death of cold, I tell ya. But they don’t listen. These chic fall looks are beyond me.
And the sparkly stuff! They put sparkles on everything these days. Shoes, shirts, even their pants! Looks like they rolled around in glitter. I guess it’s supposed to be fancy. But it just looks messy to me. Like a bunch of kids got into the craft box. Street fashion is wild.
They wear these things called “sporty tops.” I think it’s supposed to be like what they wear to play sports, but they wear ’em just walkin’ around. Don’t make no sense. If you ain’t playin’ sports, why you wearin’ a sporty top? It is all part of this crazy street fall fashion.
They got all these fancy names for things, too. “Outerwear,” they call it. Like it’s somethin’ special. It’s just a coat, far as I’m concerned. And “footwear.” That’s just shoes! Why they gotta make everything sound so complicated?
Well, I guess that’s the way of the world these days. Everything’s gotta be fancy and complicated. Me, I’m happy with my old coat and my comfy shoes. I don’t need all that fancy stuff to be happy. But these young folks, they seem to like it. So, who am I to judge? It is their fall outfits, not mine.
Just remember to dress warm, you hear? Don’t want to catch a cold just for the sake of fashion. And don’t wear them pointy shoes in the mud. You’ll ruin ’em for sure. And don’t forget your hat! That’s all about this street fall fashion, I guess.
