Its warm today in Hurghada :jig: :)) :sd: :d2:

I've still got trousers and a cardigan on though, vest top underneath my dress but as soon as the soon is out, its like a non-verbal but universal licence to look bad. And thats irrespective of where you live.

So, whats the worse fashion faux pas you have seen when its sunny??

You do make me giggle :D

I just hate badly dressed people, I just don't get what some people are thinking when they pick their outfits and around the house or wandering about fair enough, you can be a bit relaxed but to a club?? On R'n'B night???

Come one dudes, pull it together!!

Sandals and socks when combined with a pair of budgie smugglers - wrong on too many levels!

"Budgie smugglers" . :?: kinda hard to walk with a parakeet in the pocket don't you think??? ;)

Socks with sandals have their place . . . not for a night out on the town though, hehe . . . but socks are useful to keep sand off the toes if you insist. But too many ppl have resorted to "thongs" aka "flipflops" in the States . . . I am sure I happened across a topic before where that different names for them have been discussed . . . those flat rubber things that you desperately cling to the rubber piece between the big and 2nd toes!!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Wasn't sure how it was defined . . . thanks! but I still have to laugh at the image of someone trying to smuggle budgies (aka parakeets) . . . although considering the image you are giving me with the speedos . . . that would be true in many cases. :roll:

Oh my god, when I was here last year there was this really tall man, dead broad, older, maybe 60s but really well maintained but his pants....leopard skin, then the red skimpy pants would come out, oh my days! Now I am not a prude by any means but he would walk past or come and say hello and man alive I did not know where to look :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:

Oh and ladies, 50 is not old!

Its not just men in thongs ~ Last October in Sharm lady about my age but slightly larger with pink thong bikini doing stretching excersises with animation around the pool at 11am!! ~ Enought to make you need alcohol at that time ~ We were just sitting on the pool edge watching the excersies start when wow she bent right do and touched her toes not once but several times :mrgreen:
I also hate Speedos (aka budgie smugglers think thas great Lee), men with black shoes and white socks and sandals with socks!!!

NG you are right 50+ is not old unless the +bit=30 then you are knocking on a bit.
Last year a groupl of us were sat on the beach in hurghada, a 30ish russian/polish lass began to parade up and down the beach, the men all had thier eyes popping out, the women were crying into thier towels with laughter.
She had a good figure not too tall, blonde quite large boobies, but she was wearing this lttle see through bright pink number(bikini) that had flowers to cover(just) the important bits, the thing that had us weeing ourselves was the fact that she had 4 inch heels on to match her outfit and teetered all over the place, but she didnt quit she knew she had male attention so she kept on wobbling back and forth.
But ladies there is a god, because dinner time the same day it was sooo good to see her sunburn :) :) ;) you could nearly feel it she was so red!
