Opened the closet to find I’m out cold on cool T-shirts! I was interested in seeing what you all wear while on a weekend, mixing or partying it up?
I’m into brands like adidas originals and Gio-Goi (the latter I cant find good pricing anywhere in the states)… and humorous or provoking shirts you can’t typically find at any kohls or mervyns or whatever.
You guys have any tee’s or online stores for them to share??
I mostly make my own T-shirts with witty sayings and descriptions of merry times. It catches some looks and draws out some laughs (or at least chuckles)
Jeans: APC New Standard or Levi’s 501 raw denim. I think I might have some black 505s too, but I haven’t seen them in a while. Other than suits and that one pair of D&G slacks that IHNFC where they came from, I really only own about 3 pairs of pants.
And a shirt of some kind…I tend to wear custom made or tailored Oxfords in blue, white, or grey because I’m a preppy motherf***** who doesn’t like thinking about getting dressed in the morning…and because if the shirt is cut right, I don’t quite look like an italo douche bag but the tattoo on my chest just barely pokes out…which tends to be a conversation starter. Failing that, I have a bunch of target brand V-necks that mostly fit right, one Marc Jacobs t-shirt with a skull wearing headphones over the left chest, and several AX plain crew necks. I tend to wear the jacobs shirt the least because I hate labels that show.
And shoes. I only own 2 pairs of shoes that I wear out: brown bucks and black cap toes. I also own martial arts, running, and cycling shoes (as in, with clipless cleats) but I don’t wear those unless I’m actually doing those activities. And IHNFC where my flip flops went…but that’s fine, I didn’t wear them anyway.
I think I own more jackets than the rest of my clothes combined…and I still usually wear my Chrome cold-weather bike jersey more than any of the rest. That thing is so comfortable it’s like sex. I have a thing for jackets…and bags. I own like 5 black shoulder bags, but I usually carry the Chrome bag…except when DJing…I have a UDJ record bag that fits my entire digital setup.
And I have two livestrong-esque bracelets. One from a darkwave band called the Crüxshadows and the other that’s bright pink and says “BOOBIES ROCK!”. It’s supposed to have something to do with breast cancer awareness, but mostly I just think boobs are kind of awesome. I’ve been wearing the same watch ('97 Omega Seamaster) since I was like 12 (saved up for like 4 years), and I finally got sick of how unbalanced it felt having something on one wrist but not the other.
So…I just wear the same thing I wear every day. I went to one of those ridiculous prep schools with a uniform and basically never got used to the whole casual dress thing…t-shirts take waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much thought.
a suit…of the birthday variety…then again, i usually mix at home. at parties, I go with whatever the parties all about. Lookin’ fly as can be, usually. Nice black on black T-shirt with a pinstripe black jacket, flat brimmed hat.
