It's a different world...
Now, I'm hardly a paragon of style, but it seems like the guys who live out here in the sticks really don't try.
Example: I saw a 20-something guy with a relatively stylishly dressed woman (for central Connecticut) of the same age. He was wearing jeans, with a Winnie-the-Pooh jean jacket. To top it off, he was wearing bright white hightop Nikes.
I've seen decently dressed young women who make an attempt to look attractive.
The guys, on the other hand, generally dress like huge dorks. I mean, dress in Gap or Abertrendy if you don't care how you look. But Winnie the freakin' Pooh?!
