Mirror, Mirror, who's the handsomest of them all?...

There was a time where girls used to groom themselves up. They had to ensure that their beauty and allure would drive Princes and their Courts to distraction. They had be happy to star-struck any boy that had come within their orbit with their magnificent faces, regal dignities, warmth and goodness they had exude...Today it seems to me that boys are also as much keen as girls- at times more than necessarily keen to take care of their appearances. Ever happened to pass by a single guy(worst when it's a group of them :P) and choke out of the ounce of perfume emanating from them?..Phew!.. Their clothes are nothing to joke with. What about that moment in class where a bunch of boys dressed up so sophisticatedly and stylishly that you feel nude?
