When we were in DF in 2005, we kept noticing the "gel boys" as we called them . . . young studs with the most slicked back, gelled up hair you've ever seen. <BR/><BR/>Hubby was so impressed we went into a drug store so he could buy "Mexican Gel."<BR/><BR/>Now, we buy it online. It's called Punky Junky. Highly recommended!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08206046517289978597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8361177678919142183.post-65488011161243764102009-01-26T17:21:00.000-08:002009-01-26T17:21:00.000-08:00Flygirl... do you think the Mexican shirts just wo...Flygirl... do you think the Mexican shirts just work better in Mexico?? and jess...

Daddy had some Mexican friends who visited him in Havana, Cuba, very often and used to take him Mexican shirts for his young offspring. The young offspring blossomed into a 37-year-old blogger who swore never again to wear a Mexican shirt in his life again! Although he does like seeing them on other men and especially when the images are as striking and as beautiful as these ;-). Many thanks.<BR/><BR/>Greetings from London.<BR/><BR/>PS: word verification 'aquel'. did they know I was coming? :-)A Cuban In Londonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16423293358605007539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8361177678919142183.post-35848677910586500402009-01-24T19:42:00.000-08:002009-01-24T19:42:00.000-08:00:):)roadpixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04030073676234298385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8361177678919142183.post-68068752262021218042009-01-24T18:18:00.000-08:002009-01-24T18:18:00.000-08:00Hi Cecile and Londoner...let's hope you get warmer...Hi Cecile and Londoner...let's hope you get warmer temperatures soon..!! and Chanpheng..thanks for stopping by..I have been to laos and remember the dress style very well...would love to see some recent pictures, plus I still have some gorgeous silk hangings from LaosCatherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06255193476024745869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8361177678919142183.post-51982032971846982982009-01-24T18:00:00.000-08:002009-01-24T18:00:00.000-08:00Those shirts are great.
