Leave Cold-Shoulder Jumpers in 2019

By Opinion Editor 4 years ago

Allina Flaat begs us to leave this one fashion faux-pas behind, for good.

You are walking through your local morally-dubious-for-both-ethical-and-environmental-reasons-fast-fashion shop, perhaps called something like ‘Perpetually of Legal Age to Drink Alcohol in the US’ or ‘Hamartia and Mistreated-workers’ (get it?). Maybe you spilled a drink on yourself before an interview and desperately need a new top, or maybe your friend is hosting a birthday party with an inane theme and now here you are desperately trying to assemble an “Adam Lambert outfit”. Regardless, your inner monologue of shame and silent supplications to Greta Thunburg for forgiveness become deafening until you come across the article of clothing which makes everything else irrelevant: the shoulder-less or ‘cold-shoulder’ jumper.

You run your hands over the knitted style, admiring the precision with which two symmetrical shoulder holes are missing from what would otherwise be a decent jumper. Did an angry employee try to replicate Regina George’s top from Mean Girls and simply misplace the holes?  Does everyone else have uncomfortably hot shoulders and this jumper was created to fill some demographic need you never knew existed? Are these jumpers designed for maximum efficiency when it is both really cold outside (hence the jumper) and you have to get a flu shot from the doctor (hence the exposed upper arm)?  Unfortunately, the reason for these jumpers’ tortured forms cannot be logically explained. Just like the narwhal, platypus, or pretty much any animal native to the Land Down Under, the shoulder-less jumper exists as testament to the fact that the world is a confusing and frightening place (here’s to looking at you, emus).

If you cast your mind back to 2016, these shoulder-less tops had a ‘moment’ during which they reigned as the go-to fashion choice if one was both unsure about what is fashionable but dedicated to trying. Just like something else which was chosen with questionable public concession in 2016, 2020 is the year to get rid of everything ineffective and problematic (this desperate American begs you). As St Andrews is the coldest place on earth™, any article of clothing which exposes any extra inch of skin to the cold and merciless elements throw one’s sensibility into doubt and probably means you’re a bit of a masochist.

Fashion is difficult, and as someone who used to think a bright pink corduroy newsboys hat was the epitome of fashion, believe me I get it. Take my hand and I will lead you away from the darkness of frost-bitten shoulders into the light of fully functional extremities.

  1. Such a huge puffer jacket that no one can see what you’re wearing anyways. Doubles as a blanket and a dressing gown which can be worn in public.

  2. You could be wearing a burlap sack, and the only thing people could look at would be your blindingly neon shoes. Note: do not wear neon shoes if people staring at your feet all day will make you uncomfortable *my eyes are up here*.

    Photo: ASOS
  3. Comfort will reign with a beige sweatshirt paired with beige joggers. In this alternate reality which we call home, somehow all beige sweat-outfits have become sanctioned by the Almighty authorities which are Kim K and He Who Shall Not Be Named. Are they good looking? Not particularly. Will I write an article lambasting them in a few years? Probably. However, this is perhaps the Yeezy look I can most support as it does not make me want to Oedipus Rex my eyes or cost a disgusting amount of money.

    Photo: ASOS
  4. A simple graphic t-shirt which can be easily paired with any jeans or trousers for casual daywear which is fashionably palatable.

    Photo: Etsy
  5. To the joy of Blair Waldorf and your inner five-year-old, headbands are finally back in style. Now when the front of your hair is a little bit greasy, but the back is pretty much fine, slide in a headband and voila no one can tell how disgusting your hygiene really is.

    Photo: ASOS
  6. You know, a normal jumper with both shoulders securely attached.

This winter give an unequivocal “no” to ‘cold shoulder’ jumpers. If you want to make a regrettable decision, just do what everyone does in crisis and get bangs. There are many things in this world which are destined to be cold: ski slopes, your ex’s heart, and grader’s marks. Your shoulders do not have to be.

  8. PBN sites
    We’ll build a system of private blog network sites!

    Pros of our self-owned blog network:

    We perform everything SO THAT Google DOES NOT realize THAT this is A private blog network!!!

    1- We acquire web domains from distinct registrars

    2- The primary site is hosted on a VPS hosting (VPS is high-speed hosting)

    3- The rest of the sites are on separate hostings

    4- We designate a unique Google account to each site with verification in Search Console.

    5- We develop websites on WP, we do not use plugins with the help of which malware penetrate and through which pages on your websites are generated.

    6- We never duplicate templates and use only exclusive text and pictures

    We do not work with website design; the client, if wanted, can then edit the websites to suit his wishes

  59. I also believe that mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that is often found in people previously subjected to asbestos. Cancerous cellular material form from the mesothelium, which is a shielding lining which covers the majority of the body’s internal organs. These cells typically form in the lining on the lungs, tummy, or the sac which encircles one’s heart. Thanks for revealing your ideas.

  67. Thanks for your posting. I also feel that laptop computers are getting to be more and more popular today, and now will often be the only sort of computer utilised in a household. It is because at the same time potentially they are becoming more and more economical, their computing power is growing to the point where they’re as powerful as pc’s from just a few years ago.

    Understanding COSC Certification and Its Importance in Watchmaking
    COSC Accreditation and its Rigorous Standards
    Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres, or the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Agency, is the official Switzerland testing agency that certifies the precision and precision of wristwatches. COSC accreditation is a symbol of quality craftsmanship and trustworthiness in chronometry. Not all timepiece brands follow COSC certification, such as Hublot, which instead follows to its proprietary stringent standards with mechanisms like the UNICO, reaching equivalent accuracy.

    The Art of Precision Chronometry
    The central mechanism of a mechanized timepiece involves the spring, which provides power as it unwinds. This mechanism, however, can be susceptible to environmental factors that may impact its accuracy. COSC-certified mechanisms undergo rigorous testing—over 15 days in various circumstances (five positions, three temperatures)—to ensure their resilience and reliability. The tests measure:

    Average daily rate accuracy between -4 and +6 secs.
    Mean variation, peak variation rates, and impacts of thermal changes.
    Why COSC Accreditation Matters
    For watch aficionados and collectors, a COSC-accredited timepiece isn’t just a piece of technology but a proof to lasting quality and precision. It represents a timepiece that:

    Presents outstanding reliability and precision.
    Ensures confidence of superiority across the entire design of the watch.
    Is apt to hold its worth better, making it a sound choice.
    Famous Chronometer Manufacturers
    Several renowned brands prioritize COSC validation for their watches, including Rolex, Omega, Breitling, and Longines, among others. Longines, for instance, presents collections like the Archive and Soul, which showcase COSC-certified movements equipped with cutting-edge materials like silicone balance springs to enhance durability and efficiency.

    Historic Background and the Evolution of Chronometers
    The idea of the timepiece originates back to the requirement for precise chronometry for navigational at sea, highlighted by John Harrison’s work in the eighteenth cent. Since the formal establishment of COSC in 1973, the validation has become a yardstick for judging the accuracy of luxury timepieces, continuing a tradition of excellence in horology.

    Conclusion
    Owning a COSC-accredited timepiece is more than an visual choice; it’s a commitment to quality and accuracy. For those valuing accuracy above all, the COSC certification offers peacefulness of thoughts, ensuring that each validated watch will operate reliably under various conditions. Whether for individual contentment or as an investment decision, COSC-accredited timepieces stand out in the world of watchmaking, maintaining on a tradition of careful timekeeping.
