    As a firearms enthusiast, I am horrified at the muzzle discipline displayed in the second photo. I know it’s a prop gun, but I can’t look at the picture without thinking, on a gut level, that someone is about to blow their guts out.

    EDIT: Play on words intended.

      Doesn’t have to be. You don’t have to go all-out but nothing wrong with adding some style (and whimsy) to your everyday outfit, even if you’re a guy (though it is easier for women), so long as you don’t go overboard. Several of the outfits Mark posted could be worn out on the street everyday and no one would bat an eye (except for the people who think the outfit is cool).
