In my experience this is pretty much an accurate assessment. The only other thing you'd need would be a suit for special occasions, which you could really ball out on then - what with all the money you'd save on all the other stuff.

Men's style is incredibly boring and limited. Im seeing more and more women wearing mens clothes.

I honestly have to say I hate when women wear mens clothes. I think it looks like ****. Im noticing more and more women wearing mens shirts and mens jeans. Never to touch a dress again.

I look at photos from 60's and before when women still wore dresses. I think they look a hell of a lot sexier.

While were on the topic of dressing like ****. Mens clothing looks like **** to. I want to see new and exciting things offered. Im tired of the conservative cut of everything with dull ass colors. It feels like clothing for men has been stuck in 1999.

I hate that Aeropostal/American Eagle **** that so many people horde and wear everyday. Every man looks like a worse and worse copy of those around them. The cut of these mall brands looks like the **** they were putting out a decade ago. Nothing new at all, at least for the men.

So I am jealous of women in that they have so many choices and the fact that the style of clothing for them changes once in a while instead of being the same thing year after year...

None of this is true. You should check out collections from designers, not mall brands.

Well, I was kinda referencing the clothing the masses wear out on the streets. The college crowd around here only wears the Mall Brands. I've seen the stuff on runways, and id say 95% is never going to be worn by the common man in that cut or style, it gets toned way down before its "ok" for your average guy to wear out in society...

Life iz gud


Saw Arcade Fire about two weeks ago and the National back in September/October (in the musical wasteland known as Phoenix).

Arcade Fire put on an awesome show. Their set seemed kind of short given their extensive collection.

The National were also good but Matt got pretty drunk and started slurring words as the set progressed. Also got to the show late and missed out on Final Fantasy/Owen Palett

Solution: shove everything in trash bags, buy luggage, repack at airport
Gonna look swagged out carrying trash bags on the bullet train


trash bags = Irish luggage

I've tried the journey ones in the past and they kept slipping underneath my heel which was irritating as hell. I might have to give these a shot.

Really disappointed with Sonny Bono. Bought a 200 euro leather jacket and after a few months and <20 wears, I've re-sown one button and the rest are close to falling off too.
