Clothes!

[noxious.sunshine]

Have I made this thread already? I can't remember... 'cuz I was probably drunk when I made it. Feel free to close this or merge it with the other.

What's your style?

I'm either really basic or really girly. When I'm smaller, my favorite jeans from Buckle that are massively ripped up and a Long & Lean tank from Target with a pair of flip flops is my go-to outfit ... If I'm-really- skinny (which I haven't been for awhile now), jeans and a tube top. And my studded belt. For basic.

When I get girly - which again - happens when I'm smaller, I have this killer dress from Express I bought a few years ago that I wear with a pair of leather turquoise wedge heels that have wooden bottoms from Target that I love a lot or a pair of silver gladiator sandals also bought from there. And I have a couple of strapless "baby doll" ish dresses that I wear when I'm tan. I also love denim mini skirts, though I don't wear them right now. I have pretty damn good legs, but no ass and I think I have a cellulite problem now. *dies*

During the winter, I live in hoodies and jeans.. And I still rock flip flops. I can't stand the feeling of closed-toe shoes ever. I can't stand the feeling of my feet being covered in general. Even when I'm sleeping, I will snuggle up under my blanket, but kick it off of my feet.

Also. I want a really rockin' cape. I have an obsession with amazing coats and capes. I have this killer coat I bought at Target - it's a long pea/trench coat. I only wish I could rock skinny jeans and booties to go with it.

As I've gotten older, I reveal considerably less skin than I used to. I just don't feel comfortable doing it, for some reason. I'll wear skirts or shorts with tights and I will wear tank tops, but that's about as revealing as I get. I would feel weird and inappropriate in anything less than that.

I used to accessorize a lot and have a lot of badass earrings and necklaces. Now that I'm trying to gauge my ears, I leave my gauges in all the time and don't have to worry about earrings. I feel silly wearing bows in my hair at my age, but I will wear them with a bun because I think it's a combination of classy and cute. Besides bows, necklaces are really the only accessories I change out.

As for clothing, I change between jeans, tees/tanks and cardigans, or dresses and high-waisted skirts (probably also involving cardigans). I love wearing boots with skirts. Love love love it. But I love my heels so much, too. ;-; I tried the "wear a loose blazer over a band tee" thing for a while, but it didn't really fit with me, I don't think.

Skinny jeans are a godsend, though. As much as I love boyfriend jeans, I will never go back. I was against them for a damn long time, but skinny jeans look best on my figure. My favorite pair of red ones got black dye on them and now I am sad forever. but I will still wear them because smurf everyone else, I'll wear dye jeans if I feel like it. I have a pair of skinny black slacks that are on of my favorite things to wear, though, because they make my ass look awesome and go with so much of what I own.

I feel a lot more basic than I used to dress, because I don't have the energy or smurfs to give anymore about out-of-the-norm style.

To sum it up, Kaylah at The Dainty Squid is my idea of style perfection. Sometimes it's a little too kitschy for me, but overall, I would love to dress in almost anything she wears.

My dress sense is sort of hard to describe, mainly because of how boring it probably is. I mean, I'll wear the generic jeans, shirt, shoes, but there's not really alot to say.

I guess I wear smart-casual pretty much everywhere I go. I mean, I only just got my first ever pair of jogging pants like literally last week, and while I do own a pair of trainers, I hardly ever wear them. I don't know, I just hate feeling underdressed for ANYTHING. Heck, even if I'm lounging around the house I'm very loathe to wear anything fully 'casual'.

But I love my winter garments. I thrive in winter, and so everything like my coat, my other coat, my jacket, my scarves... oh, I love winter clothing. My winter wear probably outnumbers my summer gear. I literally do not own a single pair of shorts. I don't show skin. Ever. Shorts are like a great evil to me - three quarter lengths her slightly less evil cousin. I point blank refuse to show skin. I do not own a single sleeveless vest or t-shirt or whatever for that matter as well.

As I've gotten older, I reveal considerably less skin than I used to. I just don't feel comfortable doing it, for some reason. I'll wear skirts or shorts with tights and I will wear tank tops, but that's about as revealing as I get. I would feel weird and inappropriate in anything less than that.

Christ, I'll be wearing a burqa by the time I'm 25.

This thread needs pictures!

This thread needs pictures!

Ugh. Fine. Here's a picture of me wearing what I'd say is what I'd say is ideal for me. In case you're wondering, I'm the guy in the green t-shirt, or if you're colour blind, the short one.

I should probably add as well that this was taken just after a BEACH visit. Everyone else is sort of wearing the usual gear to the beach, you know, shorts, general t-shirt (or a dress, if you're a girl obviously), but as I stress, I refuse to wear shorts. That picture above is generally what I'd say is the benchmark for how I prefer to dress.

Formy, you pull off the blazer/tee combo!

I will find or post pictures at a time later than now.

[noxious.sunshine]

It does need pics! ^_^ I'll take pics of my fav items of clothing tomorrow.

I genuinely -do- want to be somewhat more edgy - like I love the skinny jeans/tank top/baggy shirt with boots or booties or flats look. If my body style were right, I know I could pull it off. But I'm chunky right now, my calves are abnormally big (even though they look great when I wear a shorter skirt or dress), I have no ass and gigantic boobs. My calves have always been big, though, no matter my weight, so mixing skinnies with boots is hard. It's hard for me to zip boots up. They catch my skin (or pants) and I have to stuff my legs hardcore into them.

It is perhaps the only look I can pull off in any real degree there Shorty

Blazers, button-ups, sweaters, jeans, slacks, khakis, etc.

I like to order clothes online, and I tend to spend far more money on clothes than I should. I suppose my style could be considered sort of urban-academic, albeit with a European edge.

Autumn/winter: dresses with tights, boots, sweaters, scarves, and belts. Maybe a cute hat if I'm feeling it. I love my cold-weather clothes, they are the best for sure.

Spring/summer: anything that keeps me from death by melting.

[Cuchulainn]

Tees, jeans, adidas trainers. im dull.

[Quindiana Jones]

Clothes?

[Cloudane]

Implying I have a style.

Whatever's comfortable!
Well, and a lot of geek t-shirts during the summer I guess.

[Denmark]

polo or button down shirts. i need more t-shirts for wearing around home because they're more comfortable

for work, usually jeans. which I immediately change out of into something like shorts or sweatpants (depending on the temperature) when I get home. because comfort #1 best thing all time

[fire_of_avalon]

I have always believed that the way one dresses is for the benefit of others and because not many other people see me I don't really have a style. I wear plain t shirts and jeans with flip flops or boots. I wear tennis shoes and a scrub uniform at work. The end.
