Is it me ? But all young women seem to have the Love Island tarts as their ideal ! False ****s, hair, eyelashes, nails and Turkish teeth !
In my day (here we go ....) Yes we loved fashion - Chelsea Girl a favourite (Top Shop didnt exist), we either had long swishy hair like Cathy McGowan, the updo curls of Dusty Springfield or Lulu's /Twiggy's short cropped look. Jeans weren't that much of a "thing" so we had mini skirts, maxi skirts and lots of boho.
The main thing was we all looked different ! And blokes seemed to be better looking - maybe because they could be in manual jobs during the day, but at weekends or on dates they'd wear a suit ! I see young men today, and I often think "if I was young girl I wouldn't fancy you !". Overweight, pale skin, a chubby chin covered by scruffy beard, endless tattos on display, always in trainers, and tatty jacket/washed out dark t shirts.
OK I'm generalising, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I see very little in today's chaps that would attract me from the off
