Fashion

So, since I've moved to the wrong side of the tracks, I take the bus to and from work most days. I've seen some crazy things; my first day "busin'" it I watched a girl masterfully apply her Amy Winehouse inspired eyeshadow, and witnessed a not-so-lucid man use the bus as a change room. Yeah, that's right he changed right down to his skivvies on public transit. The joys of affordable housing in this city.

Today i left work a bit early; I wasn't feeling well, and little did I know that a monster migraine was on the loose. But that's a story for another day. I took my favourite public transit, the #12, home. I had my earphones on and was quite content to mind my own business. Until he sot on the bus. A fully grown man, in a city, headed towards the lower income part of town, dressed head to toe in camo polar fleece! I shit you not!

I was mesmerized. First of all, who wears head to toe camo micro fleece? Second, who in the hell made that outfit? I really wanted to take a picture, immortalize the moment forever. But, fear won out. After all, this is my neighbourhood. The last thing i want to do is have a dust up with a man who thinks that this is appropriate day wear:
