I used to be kooky '60s vintage girl. Now I just need everything to be stretchy, because I'm not zipping myself into those girdled torture chambers that are dresses made for teenagers in 1964, my waist needs to be FREE.

jeans/shorts + t-shirts almost exclusively (when attending temple i'll dress up w/ some slacks + a button down; sometimes even a tie!)
― Mordy , Friday, 16 August 2013 12:56 (ten years ago) link
I essentially wear a pair of dark Levis 505s (or cheapo store brand equivalent) and a short sleeve Wrangler plaid snap-front cowboy shirt over a black t-shirt every damn day and I'm fine with this. If it's super hot I'll swap the t-shirt for a wifebeater and the jeans for a pair of cut off Dickies. Warren commission / 60s NASA engineer / Malcolm X eyeglasses as of last fall. Adidas Sambas, New Balance, Vans, or Chucks, or something else, mostly black - I love shoes and bags, have mostly not cared about clothing.
If I fancy it up I'll wear a damn sweater over a non-plaid button down and other shoes, though I don't have many dressy shoes at all. I started to finally lose weight over the last six months so I'm actually thinking about classing it up a bit more often, just cause it feels novel to sort of give a shit.

I don't tend to wear a lot of black. Always saw it as a cop-out, boring colour to wear. I've toned my style down a bit as I've gotten older but I've always been a fan of bold colours - yellow, red, orange mixed with blue or brown. I recently bought a light green/yellow camo jacket which I love. I now prefer collared shirts over t-shirts unless it's very warm. Used to wear a lot of ties but haven't donned one in ages. If I had to describe my style it would prob be colourful mod, but that's not all that accurate really.

i haven't been wearing a lot of ties for a while, it used to be my signature thing but i'm not trying quite as hard lately
long hair, don't care. beard is full and kinda ragged.
summer shirts are mostly oxford / madras / gingham, chinos are either cropped at the knee or not, feet get sheathed in beat up mocs or loafers.
accessories: tote in blue cotton ticking or a leather brief. hornrim sunglasses. silver ring w/ a glass bead. turkshead rope bracelet.
basically i look mostly like an island-dwelling preppy pothead except i don't wear polarfleece

This is easy. My style is pretty non-descript.
Jeans (used to be blue, recently switched to black), a solid-color long-sleeved cotton twill shirt with two button-flap breast pockets, a pair of "trail-running" shoes and white sweat socks. In winter, a wool sweater is generally added to these. This description is probably about as helpful as those police descriptions, like "suspect is medium height, medium build, brown hair, brown eyes".

my style is extremely limited, but i like that it way.
i like two-pocket chambray workshirts. for colder weather, i like two-pocket flannel or chamois shirts.
in summer i pretty much wear a loose pocket tee, usually some dark olive or sage color, with dark gray canvas shorts.
year-round i pretty much just wear dark gray khakis.

I try to only buy clothes at half price or better; beyond that constraint I wear a lot of slim chinos (I have four Norse Projects pairs in different colours), casual shirts, leather trainers. Have a thing for bright colours/patterns. I like the concept of ties but only really wear them for weddings.
― Francois Toofo (seandalai), Wednesday, 21 August 2013 13:45 (ten years ago) link
wear a lot of slim/skinny jeans - shirts more than t-shirts (tho i've got a lot less formal and a bit more fashion-ish in the last few years) - still lots of blazers, and converse or other trainers or brogues if i feel like it. like one brightly coloured item per outfit i guess. ties sometimes, not quite as often these days. i've drifted towards having a more adaptable style whereas before i used to very much the same style on all occasions.

Ripped "skinny" jeans (awful name), ancient clarks desert boots, either solid color t shirts (black, gray, navy) or oxfords, grey or light pink or plaid. Thick black rim glasses.
I want to up my style game someday.

A bunch of homemade colourful stuff including various variations on a slimmed down pair of wrangler jeans. For the last few months that's tended to be with some variation on a jeans jacket that i've made based on a take off of a Levi's jacket. Probably most frequently been one made in a blue William Morris Strawberry thief drill with gold birds on it. waistocat based on a western style thing that holds my walkman,, change bag, camera, wallet etc.& possibly brown leather car coat over the top.& brown leather either engineer boots, harness boots or brogue boots on my feet though today I'm wearing brown suede chelsea boots.
