Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

For England, it's a little different: Dandy-->Teddy Boy-->Metrosexual. Or maybe Dandy-->Teddy Boy-->Glam-->Metrosexual.

just in terms of high maintenance.

Teddy boy stuff: [link]

Hair was cut into an outlandish DA (Duck's Ass), long jackets were juxtaposed with thin, bootlace ties, stovepipe pants were cut short to show off patterned socks - and the look was completed with suede brothel creepers or winkle-pickers.

What the heck are "brothel creepers"? "Winkle-Pickers"? Do I need them?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

If you have to ask, yah, probably...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I dunno - I wouldn't rate the hair bands as a group. The New Romantics, otoh were straight dandy. So to speak.

OK, I confess that when I say "hair band," I really mean Poison. Because I luuuuv them.

Do I need them?

Do you aspire to be a teddy boy?

I think maybe I do need them.

Of course, I'd have to figure out an outfit to wear with them.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I have no idea what brothel creepers are, but I'm pretty sure that winkle pickers are super-pointy shoes.

Yup: men's winkle pickers, though if you google there are way, way pointier versions around.

Oddly (or maybe not), both of these are from a Japanese site.
