I gotta disagree on the beret. Almost nobody looks good in one. Few men ever wear one these days, and I can't actually remember the last time I saw an adult male human that didn't look like a tool wearing one.
It can be done for sure, but it's VERY hard to pull off. Generally it requires that the wearer be extremely 'flamboyant,' or so macho that nobody questions their choice of wardrobe. (i.e. - you need to either have your own design show on HGTV, or it needs to be part of your special forces uniform)

The only way to look good in a beret is to wear the uniform that goes with it.

I actually have one, but I'll tell you it was really hard finding a purple beaver to make it out of. If I could pull off that outfit I would sport it everyday. Originally Posted by gugi
