Dreary Pants

College begins this Friday, and I have to move into their hostel on Thursday. I went shopping today with my mom for clothes to wear during my stay there. We went to this shop called RMKV which was initially an all ladies wear shop, but now has a section for men too. They have an awesome collection of shirts & tees compared to other shops, and at affordable prices too. But when it came to pants, eeugh.



It's the same in every clothes store. I'm not talking about jeans, but pants. And Khakis. Why don't they have any varieties? It's always the same colours. Only black, grey, a kind of navy blue, and cream. And some brown too. Why? When shirts can come in multicoloured designs why not pants? I hate wearing brown and cream pants, so I buy only the other three types.



My mom says that other colours won't look formal enough on pants. But formal itself is only based on what people decide. So why can't people start a new trend of formal, like yellow, or even red pants? At least a dark, blood red if not just red.



I ended up buying a couple of checked shirts and a pair of black pants. Black is slimming, right?



Oh, and this is my first post via email. I guess email's gonna be a good way to post when in college.

  1. Is that bloody zillion-foot-saree still being displayed there? I hate that freakin Usman Road for the very fact that I live extremely close to it.
