I'm wearing nothin' but a smile

[amerikangod]

I assure you, I hate hippies with every fiber of my being.

[Satan]

it suits you. and it suits my dad. everybody wins.

i personally would rather get shot in the face than wear anything from there.

[gmku]

But that's because you're like 16 and too kewl for school.

Be thankful that your dad (and I) do not shop at Eddie Bauer or Old Navy. Or worse, try to be like the youth movement and go to Abercombie or American Eagle.

What's good about J. Crew, at least for people like me, is that it's got just a bit of an edge while remaining rather preppy. What's more, the quality is there, and the stuff, generally, won't break the bank--although if you're in the mood, they do offer the higher end stuff.

I'm still feeling guilty about my $180 J. Crew fatigue jacket (not the one shown above but like a real army fatigue jacket).

[Satan]

i was too cool for school when i was 16. so i quit.
it's nice stuff but it's far too conservative for my tastes.

I couldn't see you shopping in J. Crew in my wildest dreams!

Not that that's a bad thing. You do a lovely job without the J.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Satan again, i.e., "Stay cool."

I'll be wearing Black Flag shirts well into my 50's. I'll stop being awesome when I'm dead.

In fact, each year I kind of become trashier and trashier in my clothing.

[gmku]

Some of us elderies can carry that off. I decided I can't. I gave away all my band tee-shirts last year. Will probably never buy another.

[amerikangod]

I feel like you can still pull it off as long as you don't also get one big earring, or frosted hair.

[Satan]

favorite shirt:

 

favorite sweater:

 

[gmku]

Well, yah. There's that. I feel it just puts me awfully dangerously close to qualifying to star in one of those horrible Walmart shopper photos.

[Satan]

i'll be wearing my ratty t-shirts until i die or until they disintegrate. whichever comes first.

[gmku]

OK. Just remember--context is everything, i.e., ratty shirt in Walmart vs. ratty shirt at chic club.

[amerikangod]

My ratty shirts only take about three years before they disintegrate. I can burn through a paiir of Chucks in 7 months. I think I just sweat acid. Oh, and LIVE RUFF.

goddamn, slaytanic wehrmacht and speed racer have been kickin' it for 20(+) years.

meh i don't care, mine are comfy enough, i don't really feel them when i wear one...

the only thing i take off right away when coming home are tights. i hate skintight clothing and synthetic materials, they make me all itchy after a few hours. too bad i'm cold all the time, or i'd never wear them again.

An ex-girlfirend used to lend me her new band shirts that way they'd get broken in really quickly. I've got the touch.

My oldest piece of clothing is a hooded sweatshirt. it's almost 8 years old. It's so ratty that you see homeless people in nicer clothes.

[automatic bzooty]

skinny jeans
Who tee (ancient faded black/lettering in union jack colors)
black chucks

i was wearing this stupid red cardigan thing because it is coooooold at school, but i just took it off.

[youthoftomorrow]

olive green t-shirt, plaid shorts, brown Vans. pretty typical.
