(Old) What Are You Wearing Now/Today? Part II - pictures only - no discussion

What do you think? Top hat? Max Headroom glasses? Buxom beauties?

Your avatar thievery is still confusing the hell out of me. I am warming up to 'zazz' though.

Today was a tragic day...the death of a beard. RIP, my good friend:

I agree with your original assessment about the shirt. I don't like the fit/cut that much with the denim. The chambray you mentioned may fit the bill. It just looks a bit like a Canadian tuxedo. Not too bad, just a little bland. What shoes? Plimsoles or vintage (Nettletons? J&M?) brown lace-ups?

While it does seem slightly insane to me that a 19-y/o is walking around in Diors and patent CPs, I can't front on that ****-- it looks good. People are inherently wary of him because his style evolution has been so accelerated that it took him months to accomplish what it took others years to (the fact that money apparently isn't an issue doesn't hurt, either.) People are suspicious of others who come up too fast, it is natural to assume they haven't had time to absorb the fundamentals, and they'll end up like the kid who cleans up on high-IQ bowl when he's 8, but then finds himself unable to negotiate adult life because his parents and teachers just assumed he'd be able to. Kodiak's aquisitions are impressive, if not exactly inspired, and it is precisely by dint of their de rigeur nature that they're not going to get any love from people who secretly yearn to school the internetz with their wildly inventive, next-level My Own Private Or Yehuda steez. There is a certain joy to being a lowcash, where you're driven by this magpie impulse of gathering things from the mid-level designer to the Target level, but combining them in a way that you just absolutely make them your own. When everything is expensive and designer, and comes factory-issue bearing the imprimpteur of high fashion, it immediately becomes to some degree "safe", and for me at least, there's no longer that thrill of discovery. But when I see something like Brian SD's last fit, I see that there are things high fashion can accomplish that more modest means never could. Sometimes indie movies are good, and sometimes Hollywood blockbusters are good, but you can't go trying to make a Hollywood blockbuster on an indie movie budget. Incidentally, the W+H hoodie was not flattering to his body type, so he exercised good judgement in reselling it.

Wow, I never meant to hurt anyone. You don't seem to be taking this well at all. I guess I was just thinking about myself...again. I'll go back to blowing someone else's mind right away. By the morning it will all just be a bad memory.

What the ****? This has become like the WAYWT Chat Edition thread on Superfuture.

Hare Coat
H&M Scarf
Nudie SJ
German Army Trainers

I thought you had socks on for a second. Nice outfit though.

They do look pretty light oh but then you see the grey after close inspection and thank you

This hate on Kodiak is plain dumb, this is a STYLE forum and clothes that are nice cost. Should he go to JC Penneys and dress in South Pole and Arizona? Saying it is too much money for a teen is also incorrect, to say that he should spend money on other things: dates perhaps, hobbies, savings, etc is also rather wrong. What if clothes make him happy, what if he has money to spare? For me clothes make me happy, and I would rather have fine clothes and have to sacrifice going out with friends/dates than having inferior clothes.

Being a teenager, I try to split the costs and budget. If I didn't have money to take a girl out on a date because I had spent an entire paycheck on clothes without keeping any left over, I would feel like ****. Clothes are important, but so is life.
