banana republic is too...boxy for my taste. Clothes have to fit me like armor, not a carbord box.

it was just funny because i don't think the Forever 21 stores around here carry men's stuff, so you can imagine our surprise.

seriously though. i'm happy for you.

i am not ashamed to say that i buy a lot of basic clothes (tank tops, t-shirts, sweaters, skirts, jeans, etc) from Target, Kohl's, TJMaxx, Marshall's, and other "discount" stores. i would rather splurge when it comes to more permanent items that really take a beating such as shoes, purses/bags, and outerwear... because that's when you're really getting what you pay for.

i was wearing this one t-shirt i got for $10 at Kohl's out to a club one night, and a guy asks me "is that shirt from Diesel?" so i replied "nah, it was $10 at Kohl's, but it's good to know i tricked you into thinking i'm so trendy!"

i have a hard time keeping up with rob and myra when it comes to trends. it seems like everytime we meet up they have a new style and i'm one step behind. it's like i'm trying to chase carmen sandiego.


Posted by r5a on Apr-08-2008 18:16:

I would never be caught wearing any BR stuff.

Kill me first.

Thanks though, I have a friend who would like this, shes a BR whore.


Posted by gehzumteufel on Apr-09-2008 18:10:

so here goes:

I LOVE express, so anyone who suggested them, im already there.

I like BR jeans for men. they fit well.

and i cant be arsed to search ross and all those places because usually when i do go to those type places, since i have a super common size, its impossible to find what i like.

oh and mezzir: yes outlets ftw, but they dont exist in every place.

NO!!! on BR, Express, Armani Exchange
or
Hollister, A & F, American Eagle,
and all this other shit with their logos on it.

most of it is made with one body type in mind,
and the difference between a L,M, S is usually the length of the item
and doesn't take into account the actual dimensions of the human body.

and like someone else stated earlier, there is really no reason to spend 40 - 50 dollars on a t-shirt that is of the same quality or even worse in some cases than a t shirt that can be had for less than 20 dollars.
ditto with 100 - 200 jeans that are made out of cheap denim, poorly constructed, with the next trendy brand name on the back.

now the difference between a 200 - 500 dollars suit in comparison to a suit 1500 - 2000 dollars suit is worlds apart. i know that a tailor can help on a cheap suit, but he can't do miracles. it's all in the construction. same goes with shoes.

yea, they're made for the "average" body type. if you're anorexically-thin or a waddling fat-ass you're gonna have a hard time finding clothes that fit well regardless of what brands you're trying to shop for.

yes, but only because you're an art student.

I'm actually aiming to start wearing all black exlusively ... sad I know


but I already have all my bags in black that's a start right?
Camera, laptop, messenger, backpack bags all blacks.


Posted by daydreamer on Apr-09-2008 22:10:

right... actually neither.
definitely not fat, maybe the 'avg' american body type is big, i don't know, that could explain it.
my point is that where i to buy a 'S' at BR per se,
what would be taken in would be the length from neck to hem of the shirt, and the length of the arms, but not the waist line or torso of the shirt. that's why when you tuck them in, it balloons around and over the belt.

recently i've heard that they released a slim-fit/more tapered shirts
but i've not gone back, so i can't exactly comment.

even with the brands i use, i usually have to get a few minor adjustment made to them to fall in line to the rest of my wardrobe, but nothing like a complete readjustment of the garment is necessary.

what do i know, i haven't been back to any of these stores in years.
maybe things have changed, in terms of quality and fit.
