gonna be honest. i have eclectic (okay weird) but pretty sharp fashion sense. going out with my wife is always an excuse to dress up. i don’t understand this “wearing a t-shirt without holes and their “nice shorts” is enough to start complaining about women” but i’m fucking vain
Dressing up as a guy is kinda hard, the widely accepted options tend to have much less variety than women’s fashion. You pretty much have to get weird to make it a little fun, and that’s risky.
I guess that actually makes it easy to dress up, it’s just depressingly boring.
the acceptable shirts that come out of most clothing stores the last decade or two have been so godsdamned boring. i do most of my clothing shopping at thrift stores now and look for stuff that’s easily tailored because that’s the only place i’ll find interesting fabric. well, there and nordstrom off the rack. i saw a jacket there a decade ago that i should’ve bought that was too fucking expensive and i have regretted not buying it to this day. i should have spent that $700 i have had at least $700 of regret by now.
edit: i don’t have a lot of regrets but this is one of them.
There are a lot of dudes who basically just think that if they meet a bare minimum then they’re owed something. You can see it a lot just walking around and will probably notice it more as the percentage of chain restaurants and parking lots in the area goes up.
You and I might put more effort in but how we are doesn’t change how they are.
that depends on your opinion. i have a bright bright bright coral linen blazer i’ve fallen in love with lately and i wear whenever the weather is cool enough. pair it with a loud enough patterned shirt and it’s fantastic.
my bio family jokes that they find ugly stuff on the discount rack and when i put it on it looks good because it matches, but they just don’t have the confidence to pull this stuff off.

One of the nicest jackets that I own was manufactured in the 1960s and has had quite the interesting life before I got it.
It’s totally impractical since it has the shallowest pockets you’ve ever seen. It will absolutely not hold a phone.

Now I’m deeply curious about your fashion sense. What’s the weirdest item that you love and regularly wear?
