"I'm not talking about pre-caring-about-style-days, just times when you tried something new, and you regretted it terribly the moment you stepped out the door" naw you can take me out of your facepalm list. It was pre-SF as SF and the internet didnt exist but it was definitely a time where I cared about clothes, otherwise I wouldnt be buying ******* glittery Paul Smith jeans

Sometimes I dress like it's 20 degrees cooler than it really is.

No, the op's first sentence said "not pre-caring-about-style-days," and I've bin caring about style since way before SF, like when i was 10.
edit: get smart beat me to it.

Maybe it should say "fashion disasters in you post-StyleForum days when you were really trying to pull something off and it didn't work."

In that case, I don't have any, now I just dress boring as I have no spare scratch at the moment.

When I was 12 or 13, I owned these hideous color changing KG shoes. Looked like a Martian bowler.

My BlackScissors leather jacket, i wore it to class once and felt dumb in it. Haven't worn it since.

No more linen pants and shirts. Last summer I couldn't figure out what to wear to an office party my wife was invited to, and my wife insisted that I wear a white linen shirt over cream linen trousers. She also insisted I wear the shirt out and with sandals. I felt like a freak for the next four hours. Next morning I threw the entire outfit in the trash.

It would have worked if you lived in say...Wilmington.

This is why linen scares the **** out of me.

I have 2 pairs of H&M linen pants I refuse to wear out cuz it just doesnt look right. I think you have to be at least 40 years old for it.

H&M's obsession with linen is quite odd, especially with suiting. Never seemed appropriate to me, not even for a beach wedding.

Linen is terrible, unless of course it's jil sander linen in which case it's nothing like linen.

Yeah, the party sucked. :/

That's the advantage of having a man bag, you take take some **** off and stow it if you don't feel it.
