it's so hard seeing adults afford all the things that kids like. Y'know, for a short time i thought raw denim was teenager thing haha. Didn't know that most people that wore raw denim were adults hahaha. Makes sense though, YOU guys are the ones that can afford'em.
Well, speaking for myself Simon, I'm not the paragon of maturity. I'm basically a kid myself. I wouldn't be surprised if many of the "adults" on this forum feel similarly as I do. Most adults I mingle with in this day-2-day world find it immature and narcissistic that I'm so obsessed with (ridiculously $$) Japanese jeans. Trust me, the adults you meet here are not exactly mainstream.

cool store…you gotta start ur proxy service for Oakland T shirts...being a big fan of printed T shirts myself I see the need for it...
Beatle, here ya go:
That's the same store ! It's walking distance from my home. I wear a Women's Large in those T-shirts…they're very high quality (American Apparel or similar quality).

Seul, thanks for anointing me "Ms. Sunshine" & the t-shirt compliment – and I'm basically a jeans and t-shirts kinda girl ! Simon, I had no idea you were Asian ! I'm surprised you can get away with pot/cig smoking...didn't you have an overbearing Asian mom like I did ? [I'm Indian, as in – South Asian].

Usually premium leather isn't my material of choice for shoes since premium leather usually doesn't look too good all scratched up…
Simon,

Simon - So what is the excuse for the camera phone flicks when you are in your room…. next to your "sock drawer"?!? I mean, I can practically see the drawer in question in you awful quality photo.
-
You get back what you put in. At least, that's how I choose to look at it. Just my opinion.

@simon626:
okay i just pulled my camera out and i realized why i don't use it. I don't have a memory card to put in there….i will try to get one sooooon!
I can send you one if you would like. I would rather see quality flicks from you that badly. Also, a little critique on this fit:
1. That jacket is way too big for you and looks bizarre with such tight jeans.
2. The shirt is too big with the tight jeans.
3. Tight jeans and chunky sneakers like the Gibson Dunk you are wearing do not got together well.
4. The fit just looks sloppy overall.Resolutions
1. Get a pair of bootcut jeans or straight leg.
2. Get some boots.
3. Ditch the jacket/ shirt and switch the shoes with some vans.I am no expert at all and have fallen victim to similar things as well. I just figured you were looking for some advice so here it is. Hope you don't take it personally. :-\

And honestly, hell yea i know that everything is totally out of proportions. The flannel my sister bought me. she refuses to buy me mediums so almost all of my shirts are large
The reaaallly loose jacket on top of the flannel is just something i put on because my mom told me to grab a sweater before i left the house.
But honestly, i dress pretty sloppy with a gang load of mismatching items on a regular basis. Sometimes simply because i REALLY have no idea what to wear, and other times because i honestly don't even know what counts as fitting "right."
Your criticisim is greatly appreciated. I'm still trying to learn how to dress smart and impress allllllllllllllllllllllllllll theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ladiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeseeeeeeePerhaps it's a generational thing, but I've never understood the tight jeans thing…
Sometimes I think it's just me, but then again, there are times when I'll be sitting in a bar in Greenwich Village and think that a lot of these guys look like their wearing the leggings I see middle aged women wear in supermarkets

I think only really young guys (like Simon) can pull off skinny tight jeans…and even then, only if they're skinny. Oh, unless they're rock stars or musicians, who seem to get away with it quite nicely. If you're closer to 30 and up, in general, tight jeans on men looks a bit odd. But as I've said before -- how you appear in your tight or loose jeans has much to do with the confidence you display.

I think you may have hit it right on the head. If you're so skinny that skinny jeans still have some wiggle room in them, then you're great. But I think a lot of regular sized guys are getting into the tight jeans thing and they have no business doing so. They look like sausages.
As for the rock star thing, that's just a costume. Who the hell wants to wear a costume all the time? What do you think Iggy Pop wears on line at Costco?

No shirt and leather pants… Duh!

@simon626:
Btw, my jeans have zero wiggling room, my scrotum feels like it's constantly being held by the most delicate denim covered hands, the jeans are skin tight around my thighs, and my ass fills out the entire backside with absolutely zero loose material.
Really man?!? As DougNg said in the Internet Forum Terminology, Acronyms & Etiquette Thread: "Don't say anything to someone on the forum that might get you punched in the face. Treat everyone with the same level of respect you would the biggest motherfucker in the bar with a shotgun in one hand and a bottle of Jack in the other."
