Posted HERE but was recommended to post it here. Haven't gone shopping or got new clothes in awhile. Are there any good stickies/threads on teen/high school wardrobe or clothing fashions? Anything will help. Thanks!

Beer is going to get spilled all over everything you own. More than likely, you will sleep in the mud/bushes while wearing most of this stuff. Girls will rub themselves on your pants, which is great, but unhygienic. First, get rid of your graphic tees. If you want to wear t shirts, and who doesn't, just get some blanks from hanes/american apparel that fit well in the shoulders. Next, buy a pair of jeans. Everyone here will tell you to buy raws, and they are right. Don't ask what kind. You're getting away with this much, so you can do some forum research next. I will tell you that if you wait, jeans are cheap. Buy jeans that fit you. Buy a pair of boots that are not desert boots. desert boots are boring and girls don't give a **** that they're based on imperialist ******-wear. Buy something with a slight heel. Do some research/read up on what you like. Do not wear adidas all-stars with gelly stripes. Do not wear cargo shorts. Do not wear cargo shorts with your adidas all-stars. Chucks are whatever, but be warned that they will not get you any female attention. do not ******* EVER wear your running shoes unless you're working out, I don't care what you think you know. Buy slim button downs on the cheap. take j crew button downs to the tailor, whatever. not everything has to be skin tight, but if you want to look like you take care of yourself, a good start is to buy clothes that fit you. don't save up and buy **** that you'll regret buying. take advantage of fast fashion. Look at WAYWT. Most people are not spending a lot of money on anything. Emulate them. finally, clothes are not going to make you look better/more classy/ more cultured. If you are a slob, cookie-cutter clothing is not going to fix anything. If you are interested in looking like a mature human, or even an immature but stylish one, don't go throwing your money around. Especially not during college. spend that **** on drugs and alcohol and parties. and some boots. mostly, go do some ******* research
most of what is said here applies to high school as well.

So

  • 3. Jeans- I'll look into Raw's later.
  • 4. Jackets/Outwear- what would you guys recommend here?

Thrift/eBay everything.

Spend your money elsewhere. Don't listen to anybody that tells you to buy anything over $100....and that's pushing it.

I think the only thing I can strongly disagree with in Synthese post is the Desert Boots. We have a ******* 5000 post thread on desert boots and there is another giant ass thread on Clarks/Desert Boots at superfuture. Desert boots look a lot better than most sneakers . Some will get you female attention more than others. I have a pair in the grey distressed leather and I have hot hipster-type girls and female teachers (if that's your thing) commenting on my shoes and telling me they look good. Get a pair of desert boots in a cool color. I like beeswax but don't get that because it's boring. Get something cool like this.

COOL. Feel free to wear graphic t-shirts but make sure they fit good and are tasteful. I have a lot of boring t-shirt/jeans/sneaker days but my t-shirts fit, my jeans fit, and my sneakers aren't stupid. Bottom line is just get stuff that fits and isn't overbranded and isn't ugly. Throw in one or two button up shirt days each week and you're in the top 10% best dressed of your high school. Oh get a cardigan. Not something too flimsy. Girls love cardigans.

What are you doing here?

If like synth said you just wanna hook up w. girls and go to partys, just dress like everyone else If you stay here you'll probably be eaten alive. Use the money you were gonna use for clothes to pay for a GYM membership...oh and something synth said that holds true in any case, DONT EVER USE RUNNING SHOES UNLESS UR GOING RUNNING!!

If you actually like fashion and are driven by this go to the WAYWT thread learn about the people posting there and do some research, you'll still be eaten alive, but people here actually know what they're talking about so it will probably ease the harsh hostile environment. And DO DO your research, as in don't make dumb threads like this one and stop feeding this thread you'll probably eget banned if you do -.-.

BTW I'm in highschool.
