The Well-Dressed Man Begins at a Young Age
By Glinda
I think I need to borrow this child. Because if I tried to get my son, who is older than the adorable Cruz Beckham, to go around with his collar up, you would be able to hear the protest from wherever you reside. No matter that you live thousands of miles away from me, it might be faint, but you would hear it. And that sweater tied around the waist? Tossed off in two seconds flat, or possibly repurposed as a cape. How does she do that? I would love my son to look that preppy without having to bribe him with something that may or may not include large amounts of sugar and/or money.
Posh, tell me your secrets! I will be your disciple, I promise!
Just, uh, don’t make me wear sunglasses like that, ok? Other than that, I’m all yours!

I used to love the popped collar, back when it WAS preppy, but now I think it’s just trendy…Posh has zero prep cred, let’s face it.
But he does look cute, clean, and practical. I mean, what are you gonna do with a sweater in buildings where it’s too hot? Hand it to the bodyguard? Oh, I never do that: so ostentatious!

It’s not just kids, Glinda. I would totally repurpose that sweater as a cape! On the other hand, she does manage to keep the kid preturnaturally clean and neat in public, doesn’t she?

I said it in the ’80s and I’ll say it again: Death to the non-functional sweater (or “the NFS” as we used to refer to it on all those madras-clad prepsters in college.) With all due respect, of course.

popped collars suck. they are a stain upon the fabric of society. Anyone forcing this abomination upon a child should be disciplined.
