Alright, let’s talk about this JFK Jr. fella and his clothes, you know, the “fashion” they call it. I ain’t no fancy magazine writer, just tellin’ it like I see it.
First off, this boy, always looked neat and tidy. Not like some of these youngsters today with their ripped jeans and whatnot. He wore suits, real nice ones, like the kind you see in them old movies. Always pressed, always clean. My old man used to say, “dress for the job you want,” and I reckon JFK Jr. took that to heart. He wasn’t no ditch digger, that’s for sure.
Now, him and his wife, Carolyn, they were somethin’ else. Always matched, not in a cheesy way, but like they belonged together. Like two peas in a pod, but dressed real good. I saw a picture once, they were walkin’ down the street, and she had this simple dress, but it looked expensive, you know? And he had on this jacket, not too flashy, but it fit him just right. They looked like they stepped right out of a catalog, but not like them Sears catalogs, the fancy ones.
- They wore a lot of black, I noticed. Black coats, black dresses, black shoes. Black is always a good choice, makes you look slimmer and richer, I always say. And it goes with everything.
- Then there were the sunglasses. Always with the sunglasses. Made him look cool, I guess, like a movie star. Probably hid them tired eyes too, bein’ in the public all the time can’t be easy.
And the hair, oh the hair! That Kennedy hair, thick and shiny. Always combed neat, not a hair out of place. My grandson, he’s got hair like that, but he won’t comb it half the time. Kids these days!
I remember seeing pictures of them at events, all dressed up. She’d wear these long gowns, sparkly sometimes, but not too much. And he’d have on a tuxedo, looking all handsome. They were a good-looking couple, that’s for sure. Made you proud to be an American, even if you didn’t know them personally.
Now, I ain’t no fashion expert, but I know what I like. And I liked the way they dressed. It wasn’t about showing off, it was about looking good, feeling good, and respecting yourself and the people around you. It was simple, but it was classy. They weren’t like these Hollywood types, all flash and no substance. They had a quiet confidence, and their clothes reflected that.
It’s a shame what happened to them, such a young couple. But they left behind a legacy, not just in politics or whatever, but in how they carried themselves, how they dressed. It’s about being presentable, and it shows respect to yourself and the people around you. That’s something we could all learn from, even us old folks.
These days, everyone’s tryin’ to be different and stand out, but sometimes, bein’ simple and classic is the best way to go. That’s what I think JFK Jr. and his wife showed us. They didn’t need crazy outfits to get attention, they just looked good, naturally. And that, my friends, is what true style is all about.
So, yeah, that’s my take on JFK Jr.’s fashion. He was a sharp dresser, his wife was elegant, and together, they were somethin’ special. Simple, classic, and always put together. That’s how I remember them.
