Ask the MB -- Livin' on a Prayer

Ask the MB -- Livin' on a Prayer
Q: Ok, so I finally ditched the black metal-band t-shirts. Now what? I want to keep that "rock" look, without looking like a 15 year-old mosh-pitter.
--Wrathbone


A: Wrathbone, you live for the fight when it's all that you've got.

John Bon Jovi was on 60 Minutes last week and provided aging rockers with a roadmap for sartorial success:

Top: Young Bon Jovi with grotesque, highlighted big hair and even more grotesque turquoise shirt (or, in your case, the equivalent of black metal-band t-shirt).

Bottom: Older, wiser Bon Jovi, with black leather boots, denim, fitted white t-shirt with very short sleeves, accessorization with rock 'n' roller sunglasses, necklace.

Give it a shot.
