Students cut some slack when hanging loose

Students cut some slack when hanging loose :

"'The idea is if the kids are not going to tuck it in, you may as well have one that doesn't have to be tucked in because it looks a lot tidier,' he said. 'It's also more climatically appropriate because it's cooler and easier to wear in our hot summer.'"

While our business sector and retail personel are looking smarter and more dapper, our school students are looking scruffier, no matter where they go. I love the boys who muss up their hair to look like some 50 year old guy who just got out of bed. The untucked shirts are the go, but with their pants at half mast they look like big, dopey penguins. Even penguins have class. The girls are an odd mix of ultra short skirts,with or without weirdo belts, pants rolled over at the top and then ballet slippers or something odd on their feet. The overall look is not good, but who cares? While everyone else in Adelaide has personal grooming to a tee, the school students are a sight, full stop, end of story.
