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'm not against it, I just think it would look better with knickers.
also kinda loving this from UW

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'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).

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

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'

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

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

i keep my current gen white iphone in the front pocket of my pocket tees
― señorita buttstench (Lamp), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 23:44 (twelve years ago) link
pocket tees are great at covering up one giant nippleyou can use your messenger bag strap to shield the other one
― Art Arfons (La Lechera), Thursday, 29 September 2011 00:02 (twelve years ago) link
otherwise why have a pocket on the front of your tshirt is all i'm saying
tbrr i think man-boobs tend to prohibit the use and appreciation of tee pockets ;_;
― elmo argonaut, Thursday, 29 September 2011 13:05 (twelve years ago) link
i mean my manboobs are relatively small and pert but still there they are :\

^^ i collect these so it's not so much a fall staple as a year-round staple for me but i wanted to post my swag (not that kind of swag)
is there an "ebay / secondhand swag" thread on i love style? sort of a bragging thread for cheap scores?

admittedly i am not in love with the persistent no-break / 2 in. cuff trend that is STILL going on but otherwise the lookbook is major fall fashion boners, for me anyway
― elmo argonaut, Friday, 30 September 2011 19:52 (twelve years ago) link
yeah roll the cuff down and that outfit is A+

all fair isle everything
<3 those but what would you ever wear them with
― corey, Thursday, 6 October 2011 14:21 (twelve years ago) link
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
shetland is better
― funk master friendly (moonship journey to baja), Thursday, 6 October 2011 14:52 (twelve years ago) link
you would wear them with straight leg pants so that they peek out
i think they would look good with like, olive green officer pants, a white shirt and a grey cable-knit cardigan. or like, very dark jeans and a big fuzzy sweater.
― funk master friendly (moonship journey to baja), Thursday, 6 October 2011 14:53 (twelve years ago) link
like fair isle can be very nice, but i think plain shetland will look better longer and doesn't scream *trend*
anyway that's my plan for the season, on the lookout for something like this that is lasting quality but is not egregious expensive (under $250?). i think i could go land's end or ll bean for under $100 but i'm not convinced that stuffs not made in sweatshops. would be great to find a vintage piece but wool doesn't do so good in california.
― funk master friendly (moonship journey to baja), Thursday, 6 October 2011 14:58 (twelve years ago) link
oops that's the hurling sweater not the shetland, but there's a shetland crewneck in the mix too
this might actually be my best option, though it is more than i can really spend right now: http://jpressonline.com/sweaters_shaggy_dog_detail.php?id=PLAINM727NAV
