Fun Stuff > CHATTER
Let's have a fashion advice thread.
redglasscurls:
I knew someone was going to throw a little shitfit about my use of sartorialist. If she wore that outfit with any of the other shoe options, it'd just be a cute outfit. With the chucks, the guy from the sartorialist would cream himself and you know it, even if you don't agree with my use of the term.
I really just wanted the chance to swing a vote away from the hideousness that is flats with stockings.
PS- I did not mean sartorial and fuck up. Sartorial refers to tailored clothing, sartorialIST is the blog reference.
Gilead:
The sartorialist would cream himself over a poorly implemented and played out footwear concept with a pencil skirt and a shirt that doesn't fit very well?
Actually you might be right, I just went through and there's a bunch of outfits that are decent until you scroll down and notice they're wearing terrible shoes that don't match the aesthetic at all.
Lines:
The only reason I don't like the chucks with the outfit is because they are high tops. I don't like high top chucks with skirts, shorts, capris, etc. because I think it looks weird. It makes your legs look shorter, if that makes sense. If they were the original ones, it'd be fine. I like the combination of sneakers with skirts and I do it often. I'm just weird and like either shoes that are below the ankle or mid-calf to knee when worn with skirts.
Also I like the flats because they are red and red shoes are awesome.
BrittanyMarie:
I don't know; I think the Sartorialist dude really digs more on shape and texture. Having said that now, there's a picture on the front page right now with almost the same outfit only the girl has a leather jacket over it and shiny black low heels. I don't think there's anything wrong with monotone outfits--I think they look super classy. But if you broke up the black leg, black skirt to waist with a patent black shoe it would make it not boring.
Out of the choices you have there, I'd pick the red ones, but any color flats/low heels would look good (red is kind of an obvious choice with black and white though). Or go for a shiny black or dark grey shoe.

Heh, I got the reference, Manda. I dunno, I mean, I can't trash that chucks because it's totally something I would do if I was feeling 'throw-backy' to my old self that say. I dunno, Lunchy, like Kieffer said, I'm not really a fan of the outfit, I think the shirt it too loose/boxy for the skirt. I would go with the red flats though just because I feel like the outfit needs some visual interest. I dunno, but even like a bright red shoe seems a bit juvenile to me for some reason with all black. I know it's like one of those 'classic' looks but I always thinks it looks kinda like you're trying too hard.
