Raw jeans are overrated.

Really, really, overrated.

At least here on SF. I like the clean look, and I like the well worn in look. I only need one of both, not an entire closet full of nearly identical raw barely worn in denim.

To each their own, but with the kind of money that's going into so many pairs they can be used else where (non-denim pants, outerwear, jackets, shoes... so many options).

Raw jeans are not overrated, buying the same item over and over again is overrated.

I'll be back stateside for the next few months so I've begun figuring out just what the hell to take with me. I'm really trying to belt down on basics but at the same time I'm looking forward to dressing for different climates for a change; yes, I'm complaining about 70-degree year-round weather.

Why is it so difficult for malls to carry anything good? With few exceptions most every store in the mall is garbage.

The thought of going to a mall has become like seeing the dentist for a root canal. The elitism is strong in me but I think it's because I prefer to buy online than be bored to death in what's basically a style trough.

The only purpose of going to south coast and bev center is to show off my elitism by going into supposed high end stores and scoffing at their staff and merchandise while wearing my niche brand clothing.

I never wore uniqlo over this last year in Japan, because it's the most boring, ubiquitous stuff out there. Returning home to Portland, though, I feel like uniqlo flannels are going to become my campus go-to. They've got a great fit, layer easy, and top off raw denim nicely.

Is it just me or is it weird to complement someone on their outfit as a whole?

I really don't remember the last time I was there and I thought pretty hard about it.

Is traffic still around? That was a decent store though the owner was a moronic woman.
