Buck's Fashion Police: What Not to Wear
Many of you know I've been a member of Us Weekly's Fashion Police for a few years. My sisters, all too familiar with my childhood in purple velour shirts, take my stint as a fashion critic as a sign of the Apocalypse.
My wife, who's in a 12-step program for Project Runway addiction, admitted on our first date that she was nervous I'd pan her outfit.
Truth is, I'm a fashion bozo. If you want good advice, listen to what I say and do the exact opposite. I am, nevertheless, a pretty reliable source on what not to wear. Here's my latest look on weird fashion.

Hey, there’s nothing wrong with a Project Runway addiction
What does your wife think about this year’s winner? I am disappointed in the choice. Oh, well…there’s always Top Chef!
Hey –
Claudine says Leanne’s work in the finale was weak, but she deserved to win based on her overall performance. Korto’s work she liked, but thought maybe it was impractical for the real world.
All this is lost on me. But yes, she is addicted to Top Chef, too.
Buck,
Who picked out the purple velour shirts? You? Your mom? I guess the important thing is, were you happy in purple velour?
Purple velour was just a product of being a child of th ’80s.
