The legal fraternity has their black
and white attire . The policeman are in their blue uniform while the army is in
their typical jungle khaki wear . Each profession is recognisable by the colour
. What about the schoolchildren ? The drab dull dark blue with a white top has
a saving grace in that the dark blue can be dirtied and pass muster . But the
secondary blue with white for a girl and the male is in dirty green are not
that eye catching. Fortunately preschoolers have quite colourful attire if they
need to be uniformed .
I am all for decent dressing . Of course ,
I am in favour of fashion but there is a time and place for everything .
Some young adults do not know how to dress for the place . They do not know the
meaning of respect other people . If young adults break the dress rule , what
can we expect of the teenagers who are still did't know everything .
Teenagers should know when not to
come in shorts or funny T-shirts . Female teenagers should not be attired in
flimsy clothes or short skirts for formal place or event . Their shoe attire
should be appropriate . Flip-flops , unbuckled sandals or dirty sport shoes are
known as old fashions .
Sometimes, I do not blame these
teenagers for their parents are seemingly attired and sometimes we find that
mothers are older version in their daughters attire . With such role models, is
it of any wonder that young ladies fail to see the logic of being approriately
dressed?
I feel that older adults should set
a good example to the younger genaration . I believe that it is fine to adhere
to changing fashion but there is always a limit to being overdressed or
underdressed for some occasions . You do not want an observer or fashion editor
to say that you look like a Chrismas tree .On the other hand ,someone might
comment that you did not have a cash to buy enough material to sew that
outfit .
Nevertheless , there are some mothers
and fathers and grannies who are fashionable yet decently clothed . These are
the ones to be emulated . Blind pursuit of fashion is not the way to keep you
in spotlight . Learning to have a sense of fashion , knowing which style,colour
or cut suits you would go a long way to turning you into a lady or smart
gentleman .
