o yea i knew that was something lol

lol @ "funky mom"

god i need so many things can't even enumerate

I WANT LIKE TEN THOUSAND SUITS. i want to be the dude in Breakfast at Tiffany's

Need some new gym shoes. So tempted by some b/w Nike Frees (because they look nice over everything), but wondering if I'd be better off with a more traditional/robust Asics type things (cos I mean, who needs to look stylish in a gym really?). I mean, are the Nikes legit for gym or are they really just fashion shoes?

nike frees r good gym shoes, neutral shoes r good for lifting particularly, i personally prefer something with less sole than the nikes but theyre def better than a trad cross trainer imo

i guess i need to work out my gait. I p much just run to the gym, 10 mins of cross trainer, then the rest is machine weights. Nothing too intense but I'm going more and more and my Asics are from, like 2008 and worn out.

gait analysis is p cheap - free at lots of shops, though you won't have much of a fashion choice

i got the really lightweight new balances for mixed cardio and weights, i love 'em

same

i hav deez

use them for short runs too

i can't find an exact pic of mine but it's the minimus 20v4

yeah minimal zero heel>toe drop shoes are prob ideal for the gym, mine are more "racing flats" but p similar overall

My running shoes, high fashion:

Oh man, I found the best summer blazer/jackety thing for not too much money in the Gold Label section at TK yesterday but they only had it in a small/medium. That's the problem with that place - all the L sizes get snapped up immediately. Checked online and it's the same story.

ugh desperately in need of the above

in my ongoing quest to only wear the clothes i find in the lost and found at work i tried on this sweet normocre grey hoodie last night but it was like childs medium and only came to my navel. so i feel yr pain dog latin

the silver lining is i need to save money. but it was the swishest thing.

feel you. sometimes i try to re-borrow the small black jcrew cardigan i handed down to my bf Ryan (bc i don't have any cardigans!), but it literally looks like a \\shrug// on me.

i find it p hard to get any cardigans that i like. i'm still wearing one i got in cos about 4 years ago - i mostly find shawl collars impractical and crappy under a jacket, and shawl collars seem ubiquitous, as i think i bemoaned upthread. i find when you get one without a shawl it's often that ultra thin material which also defeats the purpose of a cardigan, to actually give a bit of an extra layer under stuff or whatever.

i have a cardigan i rarely wear having devoted myself to the shacket and sweatshirt life. also i dont wear collared shirts outside of work at all

omg collared shirts are even more comfortable than tshirts for me sometimes, i feel like i was born in one

thinking about getting back into the lacoste polo life again tho this summer. can usually find used ones really cheap in nice primary colors
