No, I'm open-minded. I have a few friends of that persuasion IRL. And I've had conversations with Conne before online.

Nice.


i believe that the only acceptable excuse you would have here is admitting you're gay? flamboyant, perhaps?

easy fellas, enough with the dick measuring contest

as for the OP, the fact is you're gonna go through several styles and looks before you decide what looks good you. You can use other' ppl's style as a blueprint as to how you want to dress, just add your own touch as things go along.

My direct advice is stay away from skin tight or too baggy ****, graphic tees (unless it's just too dope or you're repping a team), anything that's too hyped and anything that looks like you're trying to hard. Too many ppl dress thinking they're all dapper, but they end up just looking foolish.

+1

To make it easier for you here's a list of style archetypes you can cop (and associated media):
Workwear/Americana (Styleforum)
Trad/Preppy (Ask andy forums)
Metro/Yuppie (GQ and Esquire)
Hipster Scum (vice magazine)
Gothninja (Stylezietgiest)
Streetwear (hypebeast)

Although I would suggest considering investing with your local barber.

God you're an insufferable little fuckwit. I wish I went to your school just so I could steal your women and piss in your face. You fail in every way.

You tell him.

He is really, really shankable. Especially in that clothing. Can't believe someone hasn't cut him yet.

Glad this was bumped, missed the first pass.
What school are we talking about? (Yes, I realize it could be one of many.)

But but but... the pastel palette-favoring version of Conne is Conne.

Looks like a wasp-y country club for Tucker Carlson and Thurston Howell III....

Man I swear Conne is so gay

So funny how he continues to chase man chicks who are a pair of grey jeans and a dyke cut away from being a lesbian lumberjack.

Nice.

Man even though your style is akin to what one would look like if they nose-dived into the bargain bin at ralph lauren, I have to give you props for getting your photo taken with Weird Al Yankovich.
