another fashion prediction
NY POST/By DANICA LO
--IF Left Coast celeb-wear is a barometer of casual-wear days to come,
fancy sweats are the next flip-flop - soon sure to be inappropriately
worn in the boardroom, to functions at the White House and dinners at
Nobu. Here's our guide on what to do and when to don't: - When in
doubt, don't: Not sure whether metallic Chevron-striped track pants
will match the carpet at your consulting firm? Slip on a pencil skirt
instead. - Butt err on the side of caution: For truly casual Fridays,
plain Juicies may be acceptable, but stay away from rear-end writing,
if you expect respect. - Low-end high-end: Expensive sweatpants tend to
be very low-cut. Make sure to get an extra-long top to cover your
crack. - Best bang for the buck: The most versatile pieces at Shvitz
are definitely the slim-cut zip-up hoodies; less embellished ones can
be layered for the winter and worn as business-casual when paired with
dressier pieces. - Crazy rabbit: Loud prints like Primp's sellout frogs
and bunny rabbits should be saved for your spare time and weekends. The
goofier and cuter sweats are, the more casually they ought to be worn.
