Fashion Advice.
 

It's come to our attention that Cantankerous and I are the only people on the board with good taste. Give us the occassion and we shall consult you on how to dress to impress, score guys, or just make an ass of yourself.

I dress better than you. Fact.

I have never seen how you dress, but I certainly know that I have great taste. Never mind Hayden.

i havent bought new clothes for myself in years .
i was given a pair of shorts a month and a half ago and they are all i wear . i am totally clueless .

Soooo 1991,honey!

agreed

I can appreciate looking at people who are fashionable, but I'm not into the latest trends.

Still awaiting photographic proof of that.

Yours

i'm a total swanky dresser so i dont need any fashion advice at all.

but ummmm

thanks anyway.

I am going to a football ("soccer") match tomorrow. What should I wear?

Your Chelsea FC shirt of coarse. ;)

Ah, but I'm not going to a Chelsea match, I'm going to watch Fulham. I'd get my head kicked in if I wore my Chelsea shirt.

In that case, you should go topless.

simple, Jeans and a t-shirt, no effort, although if your heading out straight afterwards bring a spiffy top.

nice "non-runner" like runners also, dont give them bouncers anything to bitch about, sketchers are best for this i find.

with "i love chelsea" wrote on yr chest.

Doesnt help me figure out how to choose clothes or help me justify spending money on them !!!!!!!!!! :D
believe me, i wish id figure a thing or two out .

Right,you might want to re-consider the shirt that you will be wearing for this match.Wearing the shirt of the team you are supporting is soooo last year,my love.If you want to add a little sophistication to your look for this outing,i'd suggest you should wear an item of clothing by Arsenal or Millwall as it will definately draw attention to yourself.The type of attention you will discover in a painful way.......

Recommend me an outfit...

No shirt with something idiotic painted in whatever team you are rooting for's colours on your chest. For bottoms I'd go with jeans, preferably ratty "I don't care about anything but football" jeans.


Doubtful.



What do you look like? Judging by the name I'm assuming you dress like a total skater slob. It probably works for you. The less intelligent should dress like that so they aren't confused with people of my taste.


Oh, I'm sure, Anne. You want photographic proof of me without clothes I assume.

Whore.

I wear a sport coat almost every day during the fall. I have two good ones, sort of brownish/tweedish, one from Banana Republic and the other's an Oscar de la Renta. I love them so much it almost doesn't matter to me what else I wear with them.

First of all I'm not a skater slob and second of all
HAHA no...

Again, I was judging from the fact that you skateboard and I read your name as "Thrasher02".


I wear almost nothing but sports coats and blazers. It works for me. However, I can't even recall what you look like. It may look terrible on you or it may look fantastic. Are you an artfag?

I try not to wear anything that can be referred to as a "blazer."

I have a problem with that word for some reason.
I also have a problem with the word "blouse."
And of course "slacks."

Yeah, I think there's a big difference between a blazer and a sport coat, though.

HaydenA., I'm told--by reliable sources who also happen to know and love me--that I look professorial or editorial in mine. The horn-rimmed glasses help, as does my worldly manner. Think Robert Redford in Spy Game, Jack Nicholson in Wolf. I'll leave it at that.

A cape cannot be called a blazer. I stand by it. Besides, that fucker is warm and in February warm is good.

Are there rules about what looks good on one's feet when wearing a sports coat? Generally I wear brown oxfords, but I've seen guys wear sneakers/athletic/hiking shoes, and I shudder. Wrong, just wrong.

Sneakers/sport coat=Jerry Seinfeld. Not a good look.


I think in your profession all tweed coats are required to have suede patches on the elbows, are they not?

Suede patches--not in my fashion book! Ugh.

People who live in California do not get to talk about what people who get real winters wear during the cold stretches.

I suppose looking like the Michelin Man is a better choice?

Most of the time these days I go for my 1940s German full length leather firefighter's jacket when the wind chills get way down there. Very Gestapo-looking.

As for the cape, it is more like a coat with slits for your arms to go through. It buttons up the front and is made of black wool. I suppose "cloak" is a more apt term, but that doesn't make it sound any less nerdy.

well tell me what i should wear and i'll just keep wearing what i'm wearing now.

What are you wearing now?

jeans, black and white striped tshirt, navy blue sweater and a baby blue blanket. my socks are orange but you can't see them anyway.

I'm totally in need of help. I guess I'm a flat/lame minimalist, because all I wear are plain white t-shirts and plain denim jeans. I want to look like I'm into the things that I'm into (art, basically) without actually wearing an ad for what I like. I want my attire to be personal, but not showy. And I live in Miami, so I can't layer.

My personality: modest + mellow + occasionally silly + into the arts...

Why do you need help? That sounds perfect to me.

Vintage clothes.
They made some great short-sleeved shirts for the Dapper Man back in the day. There are a lot of vintage threads in solid colors/minimal patterns that are made of very comfortable and thin materials for your type of climate.
If you wear glasses, this type of dress can really work for you. It's arty, but still basically a pair of pants and a short sleeved shirt.

well you can start drawing on your white tshirts..

Back in high school (10th grade, was it?), that was the plan; to print graffiti graphics on t-shirts. I was totally into hip-hop culture at the time. But I'm getting tired of just wearing t-shirts now. Polos are too formal. I might pick up a fashion magazine today for ideas.

take a sewing class and make your own clothes if you really want to spend some time on it :D

all these mutha cunts claiming they have fashion par excellence need to post some brotha truckin pics of their get up. because im sure i could beat them all.

Hm. No disrespect, but that is a ludicrous idea. I'm too alpha-male for such prissy activities.

I think I'll just look through a 'zine.
