Well, I figured I would wear a suit (or at least jacket/tie) to show that I'm serious about the interview while showing some sense of style. The store is more Americana than workwear, and I'd be worried about dressing down too much. I remember some comments in RFT (?) about dressing in suits for an interview at a department store like Barney's, and I guess I'm trying to channel that advice a little.

Yeah, this is sort of the decision I'm grappling with.

Thanks. My measured chest is around a 37, and it's actually a Banana Republic small (off the rack, thanks to ctrlaltelite for the tip). It measures about 20.5" p2p.

I just get bored, you know? I was wearing some gap shirt (

) to work today with grey jeans and boots, and it was like, so ******* vanilla. got home and felt dirty, so I changed to go out to dinner with my friend. i don't even think i looked good, i'm not ******* delusional, but goddamn it felt better to wear than joe six-pack's ****-kickers and denim, especially with some ****** pants that I frankensteined with a sewing machine all by myself

I think you could pull off some loosey-goosey, Yohji style thing. Got to get fewer sneakers in your rotation though

My agenda is to get everyone doing an about face and wearing baggy **** by next year

Synthese · Nov 2, 2010

i know. i've actually hit sneaker overload - i looked at my closet and realized that I could have my choice of 4 pairs of white high tops, 2 pairs of grey high tops, one pair of BLUE high tops...or light-colored boots. it's the first time i've ever made a

while putting on my balanciagas

i don't think i know how to wear real shoes

Just wear boots, booties, bootlets (I'm making up words here) rather than oxfords.

What shop and how much? Were you pleased with it? I'm planning on moving back to TO after I graduate this spring and ought to get a decent suit or two.

I'm really enjoying colour at the moment.

anyway, shirt is making me look like i have love handles here. Doesn't look like that IRL. I should just upload some facebook photos or something, i tend to look much more natural in social settings, especially when drunk.

yeah i know same bottom half as all the others. I just got another pair of ervell jeans in khaki, and a pair in black on the way. waiting for a store to get back to me with measurements so i can get the green copper oxide ones. i just love how they fit.
