yeah white if you want to be a badass and stick with the air-tie, black if you plan on actually looking "presentable" and are planning on wearing a tie

been wearing my raf bombers 5 days a week lately, material-wise they're the least lux outerwear in my wardrobe but definitely the fav and most comfy :tounge:

about 8 years into the game they will say, 'man, wouldn't it be great if all clothes came MTM - like casual leather jackets or something, for example?' :fu:


i work for an independent finance advising firm and the senior employees all shop excessively, but @ the mall :fu:

since you posted, i was going to suggest the boss buy her son a TOJ. it will happen, eventually ... sooner than later? she was already super curious about the MTM shirts and asked me to send her links immediately

these are the typical housewives carrying around LV purses etc. driving BMWs, Jags. their kids are driving porches ... not sure if you want them buying your leather though? lol i dont know

i am bringing in my MTM orders next week as everyone asked for samples /sigh

their kids are probably on styleforum already, if they have good taste (not likely, but maybe)

Been thinking about incorporating different styles lately.
I really like the aesthetic of designers like MMM and DVN and slim, clean cuts. 
I am not very crazy on color and mostly wear shades of navy, brown, grey and soem neutrals, maybe some white, burgundy and army green.


how can you be not crazy about colour and also like the aesthetic of DVN?

I don't really think either of those designers are about slim, clean cuts actually. Clean would seem to be the opposite of what margiela is all about, IMO.

I rented The Tempest last night, mostly because of the movie stills that I had seen. What a ******* terrible movie. I made it through only the first half hour because the acting was horrible, as were the sets and effects. It was a good lineup of actors, but it seemed like it took all of their abilities to simply recite the lines. Has anyone ever seen a Shakespeare movie that they've actually liked?


TITUS

(Also, Ran and Throne of Blood, if they count.)

I love the DVN aesthetic because of his colors. The simple yet alluring blues are stunning

Thanks, FedEx. Somehow, UPS managed to deliver my package today, but despite the fact there's no snow on the roads, you've decided to hold on to 300$ worth of perishable duck products for another day. I appreciate the effort.

Lots of Dries stuff is pretty subdued color wise, very much in line with the colors listed above, and it's definitely clean.

I did order a 2-pound bucket of duck fat. Do you think I should rub it on my new jacket?

I think you should cook some eggs in it and tell us how delicious it is.

could try on like the inner panels, maybe just a test dab. WOuldn't hurt to find out. You might end up stinking like duck though. Not a good look.
