Oh moustaches are so last summer darling!

I'm guessing you live in the sticks but in London we've moved past all that. I'm actually wearing a 'merkin' necklace as I type!

VivaLeBeaver · 31/12/2012 14:59

Dd loves them. I think its a teen thing.

My dd1 got a moustache as a pencil topper. In her stocking!

Thanks dh Santa!

CaptChaos · 31/12/2012 15:04

I see them everywhere as well, mostly because DH has one, and he's definitely not a teen!

JambalayaCodfishPie · 31/12/2012 15:04

I saw a teenager today with a mustache phone cover. Weird.

I would totally consider growing a moustache so that I could use one of these

Unfortunately, I'm not quite there yet Wink

I think that a nice moustache or beard can really improve a guy's looks. Phwoar.

FromEsme · 31/12/2012 16:07

Tis no longer hipster, I live in hipster valley.

mrscumberbatch · 31/12/2012 16:19

Where is hipster valley? What comes next after moustaches? Full on Amish beards?

FiftyShedsOfGrey · 31/12/2012 16:22

You're right Esme. Once something is mainstream its no longer hipster.

I think next it will be......carrots. Yes carrots with lovely green fronds. They'll be on t-shirts, jumpers, pencil cases in the shape of carrots, babygrows that make babies look like carrots, carrot slippers, you name it and it will either have a carrot on it or be in the shape of carrot.

You heard it here first, folks.

mrscumberbatch · 31/12/2012 16:25

cough cough

Oh, hahahahahaha!

FromEsme · 31/12/2012 16:30

Hipster Valley is the unbearable areas of Shoreditch/Dalston and associated areas where twats live and ride small bicycles around.

No doubt I'm totally behind and all the twats now live in Theydon Bois or something.

I would actually like to know where the moustache thing came from though.
