good thing some of them aren’t able to customize their cars

Take a look at these pictures…

… and see if you agree with my conclusions.

I would categorize the players, based on their outfits at the Audi event, into these categories:

What was he thinking?

– Cristiano, no explanation needed.

– Sergio Canales, for that not-so-pretty puffy jacket, which came off to reveal a not-so-pretty jersey.  Did he or his mom choose this outfit?  I’ll give him a pass though, because he’s only 19, meaning that Cristiano is the only one left in this category.

Shameless self-promotion:

– Cristiano, for wearing the CR7 belt.  The buckle is horrendous.  I bet he’s been waiting since he came to Madrid to wear it, but couldn’t until he got the number “7.”

The styling/item of clothing ruined the outfit:

– Sergio, for his fake rolled up cuffs.  I’m not sure what the point is?  He looked quite good otherwise.

– Mou, for trying to go matchy-matchy.  That neutral color kind of washes him out.

– Pedro León, for his top.  I’m not feeling it.

– Mateos, Ángel di María and Fernando Gago, for the white jackets.  I can’t see them too clearly, but I’m not liking the white jackets.  

The accessory takes away from the outfit:

– Iker, for the man bag.  Does he ever go anywhere without one?  Why can’t he even leave it aside for a photo?  And most importantly, what in the world does he keep in it?

– Cris, for the gaudy CR7 belt and his matching, Michelin man red jacket.  Did you notice the sneakers matched the belt and jacket as well?  So we can see that so much thought went into the outfit, but the result is a suspendido.

– Dudek, for the pink scarf.

– Pepe, for the pink scarf.

– Pipita, for the belt.  I’m not sure it works (he looks good otherwise).

No, I’m not 50, I just like to look like I am:

– Kaká, for his outfit.  The good thing is, in 30 years time, he can still wear the same outfits!  What a way to save money!

– Iker, for his sweater.

– Zizou, for his plaid zip-up with the mock turtleneck.

Déjà vu:

– Iker, for his man bag.  But did he really need it?  His sweater had so many pockets I’m sure everything he needed would have fit in there.

– Mesut, for wearing another v-neck, jacket and jeans combo, again.

He took a risk, but it paid off:

– Esteban Granero, for his multi-colored top.  This one doesn’t follow fashion; he prefers to set it.

In this case, the accessory works:

– Lass, for the green sneakers.  I love that pop of color!

– Marcelo’s hat.  He looks adorable!

Looking good:

– Arbeloa, for rocking that leather jacket.

– Adán, Albiol, Diarrá for keeping things neat, classic and simple.

How do you always look so perfect:

– Xabi Alonso, no surprise there.  The simplicity and timelessness of his outfit are key.  The white sneakers on others might not look good, but Xabi makes it work.

By the way, cutest picture of the afternoon.
