I went out with a friend one day in a familiar brand name tshirt jeans and a hoodie. For that friend I was now in style. I was hip. I looked more my age. I respect his style, yet as you get older you mature. As you said I too did not know 33 was old nor did I know dressing outside of tshirts was dressing old. When I enter a room I want people to know that I am educated and well versed in the news of the time. I don't want to be " stereotyped as the young naive uneducated hip hop kid. We as a people need to move past what's in style and carry ourselves in a better manner. We also need to know how to judge the audience and atmosphere we are in. There is a time and place for everything. Speech included. - Kevin R.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
