well, it's a cycling jersey and they are traditionally very loud and there is sort of an informal competition among collegiate circles to see who can come up with the most ridiculous kit.

fwiw I didn't design it but I do like it.

Has anyone figured out why yoox has mystery items on their site? I bought some black balenciagas a couple weeks ago and they only showed up in a google shopping search! And it just happened again with a cashmere jil knit. wtf?

Or perhaps he lives in his own internalized world, blissfully ignorant (but not totally ignorant) of the full extent to which others mock him. Some people feel it is more important to be true to an internalized image of self, whereas others will attach importance to conforming to an external image provided by society. An INFP like yourself is quite likely to feel drawn towards the former.

Yes indeed, it's fantastic how they present their shoes on little stacked tables of varied heights-- so innovative. JC Penny does the same thing....

See i went from

1. Liking that type of stuff

2. Reading "style" blogs and pretending to dislike that stuff because it broke the rules of subtlety or whatever bullshit.

3. Liking it again, but still possibly having a bit of groupthink in me.


I wish we could all just go back to stage 1 without anything biasing our own taste.

Before you study Zen, mountains are mountains and rivers are rivers; while you are studying Zen, mountains are no longer mountains and rivers are no longer rivers; but once you have had enlightenment mountains are once again mountains and rivers again rivers.
