No it's not the colors, it's the mirror and vanity that threw me off!

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #302 on:** 20 May 2009, 20:30 »

Aren't we, at this point, past the point of being concerned with tyler's vanity?

He's the kind of cat who buys his girlfriends mirrored sunglasses so he can gaze dreamily into his own eyes.

can anyone figure out what that pageant sash says? Miss...?

Tyler · « **Reply #305 on:** 20 May 2009, 20:34 »

Kansas.

SirJuggles · « **Reply #306 on:** 20 May 2009, 20:45 »

Hm. Yeah, I see Kansas in the sash. I kinda see Jamaica too though, so...

I think Tyler implied that it was his room, Tommy.

Tyler · « **Reply #308 on:** 20 May 2009, 21:57 »

It is not my room.

Actually, tommy, he might be making fun of the thread, but it could be justified? There is some pretty terrible clothing going on in these pages, and he actually looks like I could see some QC boarders dressing, in the first photo at least.

The second outfit I kind of like, but he needs better sneakers, different color on the shorts so the juxtaposition with the T-shirt isn't so stark, and he should have his hair fauxhawked to really complete the look. Also a track jacket, possibly beige with red detailing, or vice versa, and a light summer scarf.

I just spent all afternoon thrifting. I am so happy with my many purchases except for a cute black knit sweater that I didn't realise was basically midriff, and the fact that I didn't buy that shin-length grey wool pleated skirt and I really should have. I found the most AMAZING cream leather vintage heels and a little eggplant coloured shrug from Seduce that matches my eggplant tights nicely, and a pair of beautifully worn but only very very slightly too big Lucky brand jeans, and a pale peach chiffony top to wear with my good jeans.
Also I found a pair of extra thick ribbed black tights in my washing that aren't actually mine, I wore them yesterday, they are sooo warm, and a black felt beret that was left neglected at our table at trivia. FREE SHIT YEEEAAAHHH.
And I just got my Topatoco order so I now own a couple new t-shirts and that Pictures for Sad Children tote.

I think the point that I took away from everything before Lunchy's post is Tyler has really nice legs.

michaelicious · « **Reply #313 on:** 21 May 2009, 07:28 »

Yeah, those are some pretty creamy thighs.

iamiam · « **Reply #314 on:** 21 May 2009, 09:15 »

i think tyler's point was just to be a sexy motherfucker.

and it worked. kind of. more leg next time, please.

Got a bit bored

This is the new prom dress! It needs a good steaming I found it all wrinkled in a ball for 30 dollars

Lines · « **Reply #317 on:** 30 May 2009, 18:38 »

I likes the prom dress. Also, I want the owl shirt, plz.

Ballard · « **Reply #318 on:** 30 May 2009, 19:51 »

first outfit, that shirt is a little shapeless and would look super awkward in profile.

red shoes are great.

michaelicious · « **Reply #319 on:** 30 May 2009, 20:05 »

Your house is crooked you should probably have that looked at.

Dimmukane · « **Reply #320 on:** 30 May 2009, 20:17 »

Jeezus christ, Andy, how do walk in those heels at such steep angles? You look like you're about to fall over all the time.

Drill King · « **Reply #321 on:** 30 May 2009, 20:22 »

Oh hahaha I get it! My camera was at an angle so it looks like my house is on an angle. You guys are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO clever!

The cabinets in your kitchen look kinda ugly too. What is up with that house?

That prom dress is so damn classy.

Also, I love the dress you have on with the red shoes and I love those stockings, I need more stockings, I should get onto this.

I actually I find those cabinets to be quite tasteful, though the position of the handles on the doors seems a bit awkward.

So peoples, we have this thing called NAMA Prom every year. I am going to ask the girl I am interested in to be mah date, but I have a fashion question!

I heart the fuck out of this coat (mostly because I got it for $1.50). But what color shirt/tie/pants should I pair with it?

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #336 on:** 31 May 2009, 13:53 »

Colors are funky in that picture, but you want a similarly colored pair of pants, warm colored shirt, plain tie, darker than shirt, possibly slightly cooler for a contrast.

ITT: everyone skirts around the issue of wanting to put their junk into Andy's cabinets.

Lines · « **Reply #338 on:** 31 May 2009, 19:58 »

If I'm reading the colors right, Shane, go with a cream/off white shirt, brown pants + shoes, and pick a tie that is a contrast color in the coat. I can't tell what they are exactly, but from the coats I've seen like that, they tend to have hints of red, orange, blue etc. hidden in it and it would be cool to have a solid color tie that picked up one of those colors.

Please, I don't think I would ever seriously consider storing my goods in cabinets with handles in the center, it's just awkward. Everyone knows second class levers are way more efficient than third class levers.

Tyler · « **Reply #340 on:** 31 May 2009, 20:40 »

Seriously though. That Parisian looking outfit is spectacular beyond words.

Hats: Y/N what kind?

Mostly I am talking hats for women here. I think we should start a revival of pretty hats; the men have theirs, with their celebrity champions such as Pete Doherty. Where are the women in hats?

My favourite type of headgear at the moment is the fascinator.

But I also like casual summery hats

and posh hats for parties and weddings

Please show me your hats! And I would like to know how to find a pretty hat that doesn't look too OTT or make me look like I'm dressing up in my mother's millinery. Any hat experts in the thread?

McTaggart · « **Reply #342 on:** 01 Jun 2009, 09:54 »

I really like spring racing season style hats.

I used to wear a lot of big vintage hats in the summer. They're brilliant but a lot of people look silly in them

Barmymoo · « **Reply #345 on:** 01 Jun 2009, 13:38 »

That's my problem, I look daft in big hats. That's one of the reasons I love fascinators so much, they're small enough that they don't look daft and dressy and pretty and all the things that appeal to me about hats. I've never had any reason to own one though, and they're too expensive to buy for dressup. Perhaps when my mum finally gets round to getting married I shall get one and wear it with pride.

Lines · « **Reply #346 on:** 01 Jun 2009, 15:42 »

The only hats that l really like wearing are cloche/flapper style hats, mod/60s style hats, hats like this hat I'm wearing, and my myriad of funky knitted hats. I would wear hats that looked appropriate for Ascot if I had an excuse, but I try them on in stores just for the hell of it.

nobo · « **Reply #347 on:** 01 Jun 2009, 17:00 »

So, i'm getting married a year from now and I am considering a black tux with white shirt/vest/tie combo, something like:

this is how it would look on a guy skinnier than me

and this is how it would like like on a guy suaver than me

Maybe not that exact style, but that color combination. any thoughts?

Ballard · « **Reply #348 on:** 01 Jun 2009, 19:09 »

I like it!

One of the things that makes it look great in the first model picture is that the vest is fully visible with the jacket parted.

In your picture, it's almost hidden and that's kind of throwing me off.

wafflecone · « **Reply #349 on:** 02 Jun 2009, 00:44 »

ok drill king you have all the Best Clothes. not cool.

and nobo i dig the tux!
