what is 'invisible tie look'? shirt buttoned all the way up?
― jaxon, Monday, 19 September 2011 17:49 (twelve years ago) link
yeah. it can be okay sometimes, i guess, i just think it looks a bit fussy for such an otherwise casual look

I keep trying to pull it off and failing horribly

kinda loving the idea of a workwear style suit for winter for everyday wear. contrived/passé or cool? this one is universal works and tbh i can't really afford it.

I mean is there also going to be a shabby little flat cap and a Newsies accent?
― Octavia Butler's gonna be piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiised (Laurel), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 17:10 (twelve years ago) link
I'm not against it, I just think it would look better with knickers.
also kinda loving this from UW
http://www.urbanoutfitters.co.uk/content/ebiz/urbanoutfitters/invt/5232465271493/5232465271493_Navy_l1.jpg
and did buy this
http://www.urbanoutfitters.co.uk/content/ebiz/urbanoutfitters/invt/5851465279955/5851465279955_Red_l1.jpg
which i like irl even more than in the photo because the dots are printed not woven and are very pale pink rather than white.
xpost ha, laurel i know there's a risk of that.
― I have an infamous queef post? (jed_), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 17:11 (twelve years ago) link
I'm just kidding, I do rather like the suit, I'm just making fun of my own reasons for finding it ...appropriately au courant with my demographic, loosely speaking.
― Octavia Butler's gonna be piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiised (Laurel), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 17:13 (twelve years ago) link
There are much worse looks to evoke, that's for sure. I like that suit!
― Art Arfons (La Lechera), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 17:46 (twelve years ago) link
Anyone have any recommendations for procuring a nice 3-piece suit within the next, oh, two weeks? Local department stores (including Saks, Neiman's) have been a fail.
― quincie, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 17:52 (twelve years ago) link
Oh wait may have a Nordstrom option (what is the feeling on Hugo Boss menswear? I love the womens clothes but generally too spendy for me).
― quincie, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 17:59 (twelve years ago) link
Are you in DC? Surely there's a Jos. A Banks around there somewhere.
― pullapartsquirrel (Jenny), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 18:26 (twelve years ago) link
Oh I forgot about that place--lemme check and see if they do 3-pieces. . .
― quincie, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 18:41 (twelve years ago) link
i like that suit, jed! and the vest

pocket front tees/shirts
― señorita buttstench (Lamp), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 22:48 (twelve years ago) link
heheh i ordered like 5 of those for midsummer wear when j crew was having a sale
― max, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 22:53 (twelve years ago) link
theyre the new henley collar tees
i bought eight pocket front tees in different muted colors this spring, have been wearing them all summer
broke down and tried on a bunch of pocket front boo oxfords, they were super nice and flattering
also say a rag+bone (or maybe engineered garments) duffel coat v prominently displayed in the p cool boutique where i was shoppping @cake #falltrends
― señorita buttstench (Lamp), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 22:57 (twelve years ago) link
i take my t-shirt cues from my gf, 6 years ago she was like v-necks, 3 years ago, henleys, this year, pockets

also idk what you have xp'd but the brand 'surf nyc' is kinda terrible? but i really like the name 'surf nyc'

opinions, ive got em
― señorita buttstench (Lamp), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 23:05 (twelve years ago) link
have been seeing a lot tees with contrast pockets, that's cool i guess
― elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 23:07 (twelve years ago) link
i guess pocket tees confuse me a little, because the pocket is not practical at all and practicality is a value that pockets usually express in a garment?? idk.
― elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 23:11 (twelve years ago) link
they are only practical if they have a protector
― dayo, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 23:15 (twelve years ago) link
but if pockets are gonna be a thing for a while we may as well reinvent the pocket protector while we're at it
― elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 23:25 (twelve years ago) link
we can use ~repurposed deadstock materials~ and have ~hand crafted quality~
we can make ~a million blog dollars~
― elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 23:26 (twelve years ago) link
i use my pocket for a lil notebook sometimes
but cmon its the fall fashion thread why are we talking about practicality
i suppose the practical purpose of the pocket tee is to add a lil bit of flair w/out having to put a huge skull tattoo print on the ass part
― max, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 23:41 (twelve years ago) link
fashion sucks imo
― puff puff post (uh oh I'm having a fantasy), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 23:42 (twelve years ago) link
i keep my current gen white iphone in the front pocket of my pocket tees

pocket tees are great at covering up one giant nippleyou can use your messenger bag strap to shield the other one
