Random Fashion Thoughts (Part 3: Style farmer strikes back) - our general discussion thread

Apparently there is a palm springs in palm beach for some odd reason.

Well, OK. I didn't know that. But looking at the map, it does not strike me as where you would ever find a Kennedy, much less the sitting President. Wrong side of the causeway.

Could be wrong about that. Maybe it was a tonier ZIP in 1961.

Slap 4 stitches on the back and I’d shill for it

I see you’ve noticed that our style icons go hard

 

[FrankCowperwood]

Got to with Lilly.

I actually have a great pair of Lilly Pulitzer trousers handed down to me. Some sort of orange and blue jungle and lion print.

 

[troika]

Iconic print. Mick wore that same shirt on a 1973 rolling stone cover.

Close. Great memory

No, but your avatar reminded that Tomi Ungerer died last week

I always thought it was "How you'd dress now if you were a Mod in high school during the 80s". I like to tune in once in awhile because I can relate.

Enough of the tomfoolery - where do you find all this old Margiela?

Need some ugly shoe advice. Which pair should I get for casual wear? Seeing these more w light and dark denim, olive, and shades of brown. I don't have charcoal / gray casual pants yet, and don't see myself wearing these with work stuff in an Engineered Garments-y way because most of my work stuff is too formal for that. If I ever go that route I'll consider picking a pair of these up in black or burgundy. I really wish there were a color between those 2. I'm particularly concerned about pairing these w shades of khaki or tan.

I like the color of the first one, but the soles look bad (in that pic at least). I have the dark version and I find them way more versatile than I first thought.

 

[losrockets]

Yeah, the soles are a big turnoff. Remind me of Timberland soles.

Paraboot is offering the Michael in a bunch of colors this year, maybe some are more to your liking?

Spoiler: Lots of ugly shoe pictures

There's more on their website, I omitted some of the wilder offerings with furry/hairy tops and leathers.
Paraboot really giving me a Yuketen vibe this season.

 

[Callusing]

Get ERKNs.

But if you have to choose between those go with the darker brown.
