Neck Bandannas

I know, I know. The bandana thing is played out. Kids have been rockin' them for years, but in a style that doesn't make any sense.



Sorry bout' that cheek action but that was the first relevant google image.

I don't get the back pocket bandanna. Skateboarding metalcore cats have been rocking them for years. Is this just the slow evolution from the late 80s/early 90s rocking them right on the head do-rag style? I predict in a few years that these kids will just have a little corner peeking out of their shoe before the whole thing goes extinct.

Anyways, back to the point. I'm for the neck bandanna. Its tight. Spices up a bit of worldly-class to your classic rock and roll jeans and a tshirt look. Throw in some decent shades and 3 days worth of facial hair and you're big time, jack. Take the neck bandana out of that equation and you're just some fucking dude who needs to shave, and possibly get some style tips. Heres a couple:

Red is off limits. Too loud, super whack. Blue and black are the most acceptable colors here. Jeans and a black tshirt is bullshit. Add a neckie and you might get yourself a phone number. Especially if you stop going between staring at the floor and then at a woman. This move doesn't work. Trust me. I know.

I know what you're saying. Classic "scene kid" staple that you associate with garbage like effeminate man-boy action and the Kieth Buckley fan club mosh crew. Too bad Ladyhawk is the antithesis of that, and just have a look at this:



Thats Duffy on the right. Lead singer of one of the best current independent canadian bands of today, Ladyhawk. Check out his neck game. You know that look is ace now. Huge display of the hood-up, neckie action. I rock that game, its tight.

For the ladies, i'll tell you, anything around the neck is super hot. A little silk scarf tied in a knot and pushed ever-so-slightly over to the side has me out ring shopping every time. Y'alls can get away with a ton more colors, fabrics, and styles too. And if you're not half asleep you can close up an immaculate coordination on your outfit game by tying one single knot. Grab yourself a couple of little silk neckies and knock em dead with your matching retro earrings and ultra-cute cork wedges with a bow.

i'm tellin ya.
