Assuming this is talking about what you do after you have it around and fastened, and isn't talking about wearing belts without putting them through your belt loops at all, I put it through the loops, and if it just barely misses the next one, I'll usually cinch it down another spot. It doesn't really hang, though, since it is a woven leather belt. Also makes it easy to adjust, so many holes.

I am wearing white jeans, bright red chuck high tops, and I haven't decided on my shirt yet but it's finna be sicc.

I wish't I had white jeans

Drill King · « **Reply #453 on:** 20 Jun 2009, 07:32 »

I want skinnies in all the neutrals grey, black, white, and brown. I can't find any basic black skinnies around here that aren't like hm.. Certain skinnies are just 'TOO' tight around the ankle, now I'm not looking for bootcut but I want a happy medium.

chowburger · « **Reply #454 on:** 20 Jun 2009, 13:24 »

Maybe try Topshop? I've never bought jeans from there myself (I own a grand total of one pair of jeans), but it looks as though they might have what you want.

Hey fashion Thread.

Does this look really silly or good? Prom is tommorrow and this was a practice up do, it's not hairsprayed or held down proper or anything, but is this a good general look yes?

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #458 on:** 23 Jun 2009, 12:23 »

It's okay.

Hmm what ever happened to the hair advice thread?

Anyway, Andy, I think that looks really really nice. Classy, chic, probably everything you wanna go for. I love that pin!

Drill King · « **Reply #460 on:** 23 Jun 2009, 12:24 »

I figured it was more "Does this hair look good with this dress?" but sorry :c

pen · « **Reply #461 on:** 23 Jun 2009, 12:27 »

Aah, well in that case, my opinion doesn't count because I'm not a real fan of the dress. =(

allison · « **Reply #462 on:** 23 Jun 2009, 12:54 »

Andy I think you look stunning! My only thing is that if I were you I wouldn't pull the wing out on your eyeliner so far. Other than that, work it guuuuuuuuurl.

This is wrong. I'm not sure what it means but it is wrong.

allison · « **Reply #464 on:** 23 Jun 2009, 13:54 »

It's true. I think if it extends that far from the corner of the eye it looks looks costumey and overdone.

Jace · « **Reply #465 on:** 23 Jun 2009, 15:05 »

Well, she is going to prom.

I think it looks good. But what do I know about hair and dressing myself, all of my pants match all of my shirts, no matter what combo I grab.

phooey · « **Reply #466 on:** 23 Jun 2009, 15:23 »

Is it too much to ask to get a picture of the barrette?

Addendum: I love it! It's so much better than the typical bleach blonde/tiara/orange tan/gaudy makeup look, and in so doing, very refreshing. I say the makeup looks good too, poo on what Allison* says about the eye makeup, because I think you have the facial features to really pull it off.

Are you wearing any earrings?

*If that is your name

calenlass · « **Reply #467 on:** 23 Jun 2009, 15:25 »

Actually what she wants to do with that wing is angle it up higher. That wing plays some trick on your eyes and makes hers look bigger, if she gets it right.

I think you pull off Audrey Hepburn better than 99% of women possibly could. This is good rather than silly. Though I do tend to agree with the general consensus that the eye makeup isn't exactly right.

I agree with this. Eyeliner wings make me think of Amy Winehouse. While she was not a crackhead would have been a good thing, but now she is one she's ruined it for everyone for a while, I'm afraid.

On a tangent, does anyone else think Winehouse is veering into looking like a female Perry Farrell these days? It is horrible. Not even Perry Farrell should look like Perry Farrell.

Lines · « **Reply #470 on:** 23 Jun 2009, 19:28 »

Andy is not gross and therefore should not compared to Amy Winehouse, even if it's just because of makeup. Winehouse is narsty.

I like the hair! I like the wing, too, but yes, it needs to be placed differently. You've got the whole classy 60s look going on really well, so yeah, definitely do the Audrey Hepburn eyes.

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #471 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 07:37 »

I like the eyeliner, shit they haters they are stodgy as fucc.

calenlass · « **Reply #472 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 08:36 »

Eyeliner wings make me think of the 60s.

God what a terrible decade the 60's were for fash

calenlass · « **Reply #474 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 09:59 »

Well, they did it in the 50s too,

but mostly it was a 60s thing.

St.Germain · « **Reply #475 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 15:09 »

I have a skirt. A short one. I made it last week. It was a prototype of sorts.

I'm moving very slowly into girliness. I don't know if that's good or bad. Also, I do realize that it's a little on the short side for my figure, but not to worry, I wore black tights under it and it looked much better.

Yayniall · « **Reply #476 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 16:32 »

a little on the short side for your figure?
buh?

Jace · « **Reply #477 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 16:38 »

Didn't we tell you to introduce some color into your fashion diet a while ago?
I think the outfit looks good overall but needs some color other than black and shades of black. What about... a dark red, or a dark green for the top. I think that'd brighten things up just a tad and still look alright.

calenlass · « **Reply #478 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 21:57 »

Basically he is saying do this.

What the hell

calenlass · « **Reply #480 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 22:06 »

Candy Goth!

Also I don't think I have ever seen metallic silver nail polish before. I am intrigued.

Nodaisho · « **Reply #481 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 23:05 »

Just looking at that picture makes me taste cotton candy. I'm really hoping that it is the hair color, otherwise I have a very strange fetish.

I would be more interested in how much damage that white hair dye does than the nail polish, but it might have to do with me not planning on ever putting on nail polish.

Germain, I think that the dark red top Pants suggested would look very good, very dignified as well. But I'm biased, I have a love affair with the color burgundy.

SirJuggles · « **Reply #482 on:** 24 Jun 2009, 23:47 »

I own and have worn the equivalent of 3 of the bracelets that girl is wearing. I am male. I... am pretty sure this is not a good thing.

Actually can I make that into a question? What is the public opinion on "candy"-style beaded bracelets? I have a whole tin full of different colors from when a crafts-y stalker showered me with them.

calenlass · « **Reply #485 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 12:33 »

So that is pretty good! I was only slightly disappointed that it wasn't this.

Ozymandias · « **Reply #486 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 12:40 »

Man.

A lot of people are calling bullshit on that "nacho" wallet.

St.Germain · « **Reply #487 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 14:57 »

Well, when I wore the skirt out about town with black tights, I was wearing a red halter top with it. And my hair down. Dear god, the world is ending. My boyfriend has a picture, and I'll try to get him to send it to me so I can post it.

And by "a little on the short side for my figure," I of course meant because I have... thick legs. Usually I try to cover those.

Caleb · « **Reply #488 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 15:12 »

Is the Fashion advice thread a good place to ask about haircut advice? My hair has gotten too long in the back and I need to get one.

plumbob78 · « **Reply #489 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 15:17 »

Try the Hair advice thread.

Caleb · « **Reply #490 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 15:29 »

That seems reasonable. (Why the hell didn't I see that...)

jmrz · « **Reply #491 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 20:21 »

Guys, what do we think of this?

I am wearing it at work today and am going out straight after work, I figured it was both cute and work-like. The stockings are fishnets underneath a normal pair.

est · « **Reply #492 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 20:54 »

The outfit itself is very nice, but as for the stockings I dunno. Fishnets get a bad rap due to stereotype. There are plenty of really classy-looking stockings to choose from that would avoid criticism from people who think "fishnets = whore"

Jace · « **Reply #493 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 21:20 »

I'm torn on the fishnets, it seems that it isn't as whorish (I cannot think of a better word, but I know this isn't the word I want) because it almost looks like it is just a texture of the other stockings, but I'm not completely sold on it, I guess it depends where you are going out to.

De_El · « **Reply #494 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 22:03 »

I would think that if it is a question of whether it looks "whorish" (which it totally does not) one would be more concerned with how it might play at her workplace than where she goes afterward.

jmrz · « **Reply #495 on:** 25 Jun 2009, 22:17 »

Well, I work in an office and my boss is my Mum. The only thing mum has said all day in regards to my outfit was that it made my legs look incredibly long. She had more of a problem when I wore black skinny jeans to work and hasn't said anything about the stockings. So, stockings = totally okay at the workplace.

And yeah, Jace - I have the fishnets on UNDERNEATH the other pair. So it kind of just looks like a pattern on the stockings. There is no way I'd wear these on their own out in public.

redglasscurls · « **Reply #496 on:** 26 Jun 2009, 04:15 »

I'm not really a fan of this poofy thing going on at the side of the skirt, but the overall look is pretty good. I keep forgetting that it is getting cold in aussie land and wondering why people are wearing all this dark somber stuff.

St.Germain · « **Reply #497 on:** 26 Jun 2009, 14:38 »

I have no excuse for wearing dark somber stuff. It's at least 70F degrees out there.

sandysmilinstrange · « **Reply #498 on:** 27 Jun 2009, 06:49 »

Jamie, you have a very cute figure and a great sense of style and I love everything about that outfit except for the ruffles on the sides (which remind me a bit of Saved by the Bell). Wearing regular stockings over fishnets is a really good idea for toning them down! I'll have to try that.

Lines · « **Reply #499 on:** 27 Jun 2009, 07:18 »

I like the outfit. Fishnets are always better when paired with another set of stockings and I kind of like the poofy skirt.
