Fashion Faux Pas

Fishnet stockings are always a fashion mistake in the daytime. And they're usually a mistake in the evening as well.

But a 26-year-old man from Salinas, California, obviously never grew up learning about women's stocking rules. The Bay City News reported Monday that Michael Leslie Clouse allegedly dressed up in "a black wig, black evening dress, fishnet stockings, calf-high boots and a black purse" to rob a gas station.

Gas stations are completely inappropriate places for evening wear with fishnets.

Monterey Police Officer Chad Ventimiglia arrested Clouse about 35 minutes later when he spotted a pair of women's pantyhose sticking out of the driver's door of a black Saab fitting the description of a car seen in the area before the robbery.

At the time of his arrest, Clouse was wearing a black evening dress under his pants and shirt, according to Monterey police.
