CDLVIII - Fashion Backfire.



A sequel to the previous post.

In that post I recounted how I tore my trousers, doing good deeds.
This meant that I would need to wear 
suit trousers until I bought some new ones.

There were problems…

Fashion Backfire.

I am embarrassed to report a wardrobe malfunction,
Where  checked shirt clashed with some pants with stripes
And the dissonant junction distressed a woman, well dressed.

These types prevail in cases, style based,
And I was taken to court for the crime of bad taste.

  1. A checked shirt with striped dress trousers? You will have to buy some jeans for doing good deeds.

  6. What! Talk about a drama Queen. It's not as if I said I was going to have your entire body covered in " Rall Rules" tattoos.
