teenagers

i dont know what its like elsewhere but here in the UK all the kids seem obsessed by wearing sports clothes, normally trackie bottoms hideous looking trainers a baseball cap and a hooded jumper (they wear the hood over their cap)

they look like thugs most the time, you can barely see their faces when they walk past you, its got to the point where some shops in the town i live in refuse to let 'hoodies' in their shops - big brand name shops - as part of a police initiative

what happened to girls wearing pretty dresses and guys wearing jeans and a nice jumper??

Re: teenagers

Those days are long gone. Here, the style is way oversized, baggy pants, lots of black, gothic look.

What drives me even more insane is a lady in her 70s or 80s, in a mini skirt and low cut shirt

Re: teenagers

The kids around here would wear the jewelry, but not the clothes. The ones they refer to as "preppy" might wear the shirts, but they definately wouldn't wear the hat, shirt, or shoes. I think I like the chav look LOL
