Meglo-Chic

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

Due to the overwhelming positive response to my tribute to The Man Bag, you’ve successfully fooled me into thinking that I know something about fashion. And just like everyone else who believes they have their finger on the pulse of style, I’m going to prove it to you by shoving fashion tips down your throat.

Today, I’m going to help you look Meglo-Chic. Let’s face it, the megalomaniac look is in.We’re here, we cause fear, get used to it!” These bad-ass, terrorist supporting world leaders all must truly be hot under the collar, because all of them are rocking the “no-tie” look.

Check out Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. He may be backwards when it comes to human rights, but the man sure is fashion forward. Even when addressing the United Nations, this meglosexual chooses style over a more traditional formal look.

But Ahmablah-blah-blah is not the only nuclear hungry maniac with an eye towards a hip, relaxed look. One only must look east towards North Korea to find another nut job who can’t blame his insanity on a tie cutting off the circulation to his brain.

Kim Jong-Il is always looking relaxed with his open collar look. While the neck-tie industry is really struggling in North Korea, the market for ugly green shirts has never been better.

Even the late mass murdering megalomaniac from Iraq spent the last few years of his life minus the tie. Saddam Hussein, who in his earlier days in power was never caught without the popular neck accessory, lived out his final years in the extreme comfort and freedom of a Meglo-Chic lifestyle. This is, of course, until he was ultimately fitted for the tightest tie of them all.
