Colin boots it to shops forlast-minute pressies.


Byline: By MIRROR REPORTER

COLIN Farrell was looking shifty shift·y  
adj. shift·i·er, shift·i·est
1. Having, displaying, or suggestive of deceitful character; evasive or untrustworthy.

2.
 as he tried to hide the fact he's a typical man when it comes to Christmas shopping.

The 32-year-old stopped at Mayfair Market in Los Feliz, California, to buy some last-minute gifts. An onlooker said: "Colin was looking almost well turned out in pin-stripe suit and scarf.

"But he'd matched it with scruffy scruff·y  
adj. scruff·i·er, scruff·i·est
1. Shabby; untidy.

2. Chiefly British Scaly; scabby.



[From obsolete scruff, scurf, variant of
 boots that weren't even laced up."

Let's hope the Dubliner did a more coorinated job with his presents than his wardrobe choice.
