Please tell me there is a website that has really good and organized "what celebrities are wearing" kinda things? Allow the user to sort by celebrity, article of clothing, or brand. Keep is simple and streamlined with just the picture, the name of the items, price, and a few links on where to find them online or brick and mortar stockists. Keep a forum on the site to allow people to discuss and form their own celebrity stalking community or posting how they're coming along with their copycat outfits full of threads wondering why the exact same mediocre clothes didn't make a normal looking guy/girl look like a supersexy model.

I'm assuming there is something like this already but was wondering if there was room for improvement, better design and just a better setup and concept. Kunk should get in on this with me. I've seen similar kinda sites but it's usually an attachment to gossip things or will show random/crappy pics or just focus on girls. Probably could be successful if you do it right and advertise it by posting/spamming on perez hilton, us weekly, ok magazine, tmz comment sections or other fashion blogs. A good forum definitely helps

Not bad. Kinda messy but solid. Could just take the angle to make it more fashion focused rather than just anything (random sunglasses or diaper bags). Guess there are things like hat out there. I guess because i don't search for celebrity fashion i dont' encounter them. Still think a better site could come around but oh well. The celebrity obsession world is strange. There has to be other avenues to exploit them that hasn't been done yet.

I got stuck in traffic behind one of these ugly things today. Prior to this I didn't even realize such a thing existed. Now I know why I never really cared much for Subaru. And I also now know why I only see middle aged woman driving them....

The l.l.Bean Outback is actually bad ass in a certain sort of way.

Thank you very much for the replies, I realize this is Random Fashion Thoughts and there's probably a better place to ask this, but I trust you dudes Here it is with black, (again, sorry for the sloppy fit, literally playing internet dress up at 2 in the morning)

Is this acceptable in any way in a professional environment? Trying to make the best of this, because it is a very nice jacket for the price, just something I'd never wear casually Also, the pinstripes are very faint, do not contrast, and are more of a texture than a color, so it appears solid from a distance.

I drive a Forester, then again, I do a lot of hiking/backpacking and live in Washington
It's cool to throw a twin mattress in the back and sleep in comfort for things like music festivals, too (Sasquatch!!!)

Are you sure it's worth this much trouble? Just get another N.Hollywood suit
