    Random fashion thoughts

    I despise jean shorts. The summer time uniform for so many around here is a V-neck or tank top (usually AA) and cut off jean shorts. It's goddamn atrocious. They look great on girls.

    Matching woven shoe with woven belt?

    Thanks. I figured that was the case, but the shoe/belt colour matching rule was news to me a few years back, so I figured it was better to check.

    Random fashion thoughts

    Random thought: Polos work well for me since my long arms don't matter with short sleeves and my long torso doesn't matter since they're not expected to be tucked in.

    Matching woven shoe with woven belt?

    You're supposed to have shoes and belt be the same colour. What about matching woven shoes with a woven belt? like this type of shoe: with this type of belt http://s7.landsend.com/is/image/Land...lcUYtdeOlamiwB Is that kind of matching required, or does it go to the point of overdoing the...

    Shoe transition, Kid to Grownup, Suggestions

    Velcro fastening looks kiddish to me. Unless they're obviously for sports shoes, they remind me of being unable to tie shoelaces.

    Purchase Male "Hood Scarfs"?

    First time the pictures stopped loading. This time they all did. I like it. Looks pretty useful, particularly given I don't like having a hood on my jacket if I don't need it. Definitely something for the winter.

    Fashion Challenge

    I wouldn't necessarily avoid polyester. I used to abhor it too, but it has some advantages in convenience, and ironically has less of an ecological footprint than cotton. It's hard to go wrong with a polo shirt. As for avoiding wrinkles, either hang dry or take it out of the wash while still...

    5K to buy a watch - what to get?!!

    I'd go for a Seiko Spring Drive simply because the perfectly sweeping second hand is so cool. Other than that, Rolex. They always hold their value and aren't that hard to sell. Other brands you'll have to find a WIS willing to buy it off you.

    Challenge: Haven't Worn Jeans in 8 Years

    FYI bootcut is ALREADY uncool I don't see how it can be if you're wearing boots. A design with a purpose that achieves the intended purpose is always in style. As for comparing the uncoolness of bootcut to slims/tapered cuts, I'm not sure how the latter ever were cool. Certainly some are cut...

    Oh, that changes things then. Just as well though since ski pants work better.

    Started running and got acne!! :o

    Careful not to get the tea tree oil solution near your eyes. I've put some on over my orbitals and my eyes were tearing. I'd hate to think what it feels like to actually get some in your eyes.

    Challenge: Haven't Worn Jeans in 8 Years

    Yeah, I don't either. I've got a pair of jeans like that, but they're in perfect condition because I almost never wear them - they're pretty much there for the weeks that I'm so busy I don't get my laundry done fast enough. If you're going skiing I'd consider looking into some relaxed cut...

    Because we all love top 10: Top 10 favourite brands right now

    The idea that most people here have ten brands they actually own enough pieces to judge fairly is laughable but I will play internet sartorialist: I think the "right now" part points to it more being present infatuation.

    Challenge: Haven't Worn Jeans in 8 Years

    It's not the bootcut that stands out to me, it's the fact that they're crotch huggers. You don't want your jeans giving you a hand job. (Although apparently some people go for that look - still, you can't go wrong by having jeans that don't hug your crotch).

    Sears predicted to go bankrupt

    Didn't Sears buy Land's End a few years ago? This is something I was wondering too. I don't really care about Sears, but Land's End I am worried about.
