Right into skinny jeans and white tops these days

 

I'm boring and wear band shirts, shorts and converse/skate shoes, but it's what I like and want to wear.

 

You do you man, we all have our own unique styles shaped our interests, desires, budgets etc






How do you guys feel about bandanas? For example:

 

bandanas, they're neat if they're worn like shown in the second pic. You'd have to wear an outfit of similar nature to the same guy too, its hard to pull off.

the way the bandana is worn in the first pic by frank ocean is tasteless in my opinion.

 

I'm toolbag #3 and 4.

 

Yeah I love the bandana frank wears but I think Vic Mensa rocks it better. I was considering be a pioneer also, wearing it as a bracelet of sorts but it might be too big for that.

Not really a fan of bandanas, just not a style I'm keen on. I do think it looks good on Mensa though.

 

What if you cut a square out of the middle, then tried to use it as a bracelet? Could be something fun to try if you've got $15 you're willing to blow.

As for me, I admire when it's pulled off right, but I just don't have the right wardrobe for bandanas.

 

Fair enough, it certainly is a bit of a leap of faith with it as it certainly might not look right on me without the right aesthetic, also concerned about it working due to skin tone differences and I don't want to end up looking like a hippy.

Yeah potentially, can cop some cheap ones off of aliexpress for $1.23 each so that might bear trying. I get what you mean though, you certainly can't just add a bandana to any outfit and it work, should be interesting.

 

For you guys into street fashion where do you go for your jeans? I've been looking for that "destroyed" look but cant find any I like straight jeans but im fine with skinny as long as there are 17in leg openings (cant do any skinnier its just not me)

 

Have you thought of distressing them yourself? I picked some slim black jeans up from a thrift shop ages ago and distressed them myself by hand. Used a craft knife to make an initial incision sideways and two places (where you want your hole to be), grab some sand paper to rough up along the incision and then use some tweezers to pull the black threads out so you're left with just the white threads for the distressed look.

 

I actually have thought about it, but I'm scared to ruin my jeans I already have, was it a simple process? My buddy use to do the distressing and he'd use a sewing machine for some cool patterned stitching as well on some of the openings he made, But when my other buddy tried it on his true's it went to hell in a handbag real quick. You pleased with the results or would you have just rather bought them distressed?

 

Yeah, I'm okay with boring. I feel like it's an attractive, fashionable, and classy look. I don't have too much time to spend coming up with a new thing every day. And if I did I would probably end up with the same stuff because I just love it. I enjoy looking mature and professional.

That being said, this isn't all I wear. In summer in casual situations I wear soft fitted T's with some nice shorts pretty much exactly like this.

 

Have you tried embellish? They make nice distressed jeans.

 

Is anyone else going for yeezy's on the 19th?

 

I guess I don't really have much of a set style. Plain t-shirts and jeans are the regular. Hoodies and what not. Guess I still sort of dress like a highschool kid. When I'm dressing up typically khakis, black undershirt with a pullover nice sort of sweater thing. I could show you guys an example if I can find one.

 

Yeah relatively simple, I can upload some pics of how they turned out and some pics of the process if I didn't throw out some of my old jeans yet if you want

Guess everyone has their own style, I'd personally get bored of just wearing the same stuff all the time though

Too expensive for my taste, I try to be quite frugal. $96 USD and then no doubt the shipping would be murderous. For comparison I the pair I distressed myself was about about 12 USD which I distressed for free.

Considered it but there's no drops anywhere near me

Feel free to post some pics fam
