Ha! Even if a trend is not something I would immediately choose for myself, I always admire it when the wearer owns their look and is confident. Confidence and a great smile are the results of any outfit that makes You Look Fab. Your little nephew and your Dad really are quite dashing!

OOOhhh. I have some slides....hmmm

ANY look??? I pray not this one! (Bullet bra)

Yes, I'm afraid you are right ... But luckily, noone HAS to follow ALL trends.

Your nephew has the style gene for sure!

What I’m struck with in your pictures, is how much your brother looks like your father, and you look like your mother. Being a vintage person myself, of course I like your father’s style. I assume your “little nephew” resembles his mother.

I also like socks with Birkenstocks, but they have to be hand-knit IMO.

My son and his friends are all about the slides and socks ... Each to his own; if he feels good and it's not inappropriate to the occasion, I'm supportive

Angie, I know it was in the Netherlands -- just meant that it's a look in Seattle for a long time.

It looks like little nephew knows how to do a great semi-tuck.
