And what's your idea of 'good taste' with clothes?

Only problem with that, you can't pick random people to hate.
Hating on chavs is a favourite past time.
Going to the pub tomorrow, I will no doubt h8 on a few people. :cool:

I think the novelty would wear off, moving into Manchester.
I think I'd prefer moving away somewhere a bit quieter, I love Manchester but somewhere a bit calmer would be nice.
Bills + realities of living on your own = :(
Maybe I'm wrong, I just don't feel completely ready yet. But if the opportunity came, I'd do it.

Jeans, no skinnies. No cardigans.
Nice jumpers, nice hoodies, nice t-shirts.
No band ts.
No River Island stuff.

No band tees? :(

Only forgiveable if you're lounging around the house.
I hate them mid 30 guys, with long hair and a Pink Floyd band t thinking they're 1) still seventeen and 2) cool as cold shit.
They're usually tight fit as well, I have a handful but I don't wear them in public and they have tight sleeves and generally aren't very good.

I love Band Tees, what I wear mostly. They look good and they can be good conversation starters.

You: "Oh, you like *insert band name here*? That's cool! I like them too"

*awkward silence*

Them: "Ur, yeah..."

*another awkward silence*

:laughing:

I'll start wearing my Joy Division t-shirt and I'll get new friends. :D

I got into a conversation with a fucking Kiss fan. I tried to tell him how fucking atrocious I thought they were without being too strong. I failed.

I saved it with "but since you saw them live, I bet that'd be kind of fun!"
Fucking Kiss http://www.mygnrforum.com/public/sty...t/facepalm.gif

Band tees are great providing you don't wear generic white/light colour on black crap. Like standard Nirvana shirts and stuff, they look proper awful. Band tees are all I ever wear, no other tees take my fancy. Nothing from River Island or Topman is nice, and Primark clothes should not be worn outside of the house. I like some Adidias originals tees, I own like 3 of those but generally its band tees. I have some trackies and tees from Primark for lounging about the house in, otherwise, if you go outside in Primark stuff you need punching in the gob. Unless its jeans. I'll accept those I guess.

I like band tees which don't have the bands name plastered all over it, though they're few and far between. Nice designs are always rad. Yeah, band tees are definitely cool, and I've had a couple of people starting conversations with me on nights out and stuff or at the pub when I've had my Jr. shirt on. Also the same with festival wristbands even though I have my Leeds wristbands on and most of the people who go to Leeds these days are goons and I'd not be seen dead talking to the shutter-shade wearing cunts in the middle of the street.

TheCunningStunt 10-23-2010 01:19 PM

I've only ever been in Primark twice, never bought anything.
I really like Fred Perry shirts.
Adidas Original tees are shite.
This thread has reminded me, I need to do some clothes shopping.
I only ever seem to wear a suit these days *sigh*

Band tees remind me of people who are oh so proud of the music they listen to, and they stick their pigeon chest out and make sure everyone knows what music you listen to and how proud you are of it. (Not you, obviously. Just speaking in general)
I think a lot of them, the design leaves a lot to be desired.
Next and Burtons are nice.
I think I need to go Primark more, I bet they have some nice Jeans.
Topman are atrocious.
H&M are 50/50, some nice stuff - some absolute sh*te.
What other shops are there? Republic and Bank, sh*te.

downwardspiral 10-23-2010 01:27 PM

Fred Perry polos? They can be alright on the right person, but not that many can pull them off IMO. And ugh, seriously Burtons? D: absolutely disgraceful shop. Their clothes are just so boring and dull. When you're 45 and a virgin, you can shop at Burtons, otherwise you need to steer clear. Adidas originals stuff is nice, they have so many different designs, how can you say they're all bad?! The plain ones with the Adidas logo on are good.

I don't think many people are like that with band tees, I've genuinely never ever came across someone like that. But anyway why shouldn't you be proud of what you listen to? Not like you need a shirt to symbolise that, bit it's sometimes nice to rep a band you love by wearing their merch. Some band tees are just genuinely nice. I hate people who wear those tees from Urban Outfitters and Topman who have a band printed on them (such as Sonic Youth, Led Zeppelin, The Stone Roses etc.) argh it infuriates me so badly.

TheCunningStunt 10-23-2010 01:36 PM

Burtons is wonderful you clownfaced clopper.
They have a lot of plain stuff, but I like plain stuff.
I really like plain white t-shirts.
Burtons hoodies are minging though.
But they're a great shop.

Every Adidas Original shirt I've seen resembles this:
http://www.football-shirts-online.co...0528_large.gif

I imagine showing off the music you listen to is part of the appeal of wearing the shirt, although there are some (utter twats) that will wear band ts if they like the design, even if they don't like or don't even know the band.
A few wear Pink Floyd DSOTM t-shirts, just because of the design. So I don't know.
I'm a fan of jeans, white nice trainers, plain t-shirt and a really nice hoody/jacket.

downwardspiral 10-23-2010 01:41 PM

Ew, that Adidas shirt is horrendous. The ones I have are just a plain colour (I have green, white, black) and then they have the logo in plain white. I haven't worn them in a while but they're just real nice, plain designs. I don't like anything too complicated.

I tend to wear Vans/nikes, mostly the former. I have a pair of Pixies Vans cos I'm a ****/fanboy :3

Bought a couple of colognes:

The first one's more of a casual, wear to school type of cologne. Both smell amazing though.

Ridiculous!? Huh? My main store is Express. I'm all over the place though. I'd wear a cardigan and suit pants with this t-shirt

I've never seen a nice Adidas shirt.
I want to go shopping now, I haven't had new clothes in ages.
My birthday soon, I'll get the mother to take me shopping.

Vans are terrible, I've never ever been able to see the attraction.
I love K Swiss, I liked them before the chavs swooned in on them.
But it didn't change my feelings for them, they're a wonderful trainer.

downwardspiral 10-24-2010 04:49 AM

Hahaha I used to wear K-Swiss, they're actually quite nice trainers but I don't think I'd wear them now. They're a bit too spoony and big I think. My Pixies Vans 4ever x

One of my teachers noticed the unknown pleasures shirt I wore to class one day and since I've been getting oddly high marks on my assignments, even when I know I've left something out and normally wouldn't recieve full credit. I'm sure it's all in my head but I like to think my musical preferences played a part :D

Just traded this for another 15" screen.
Why, might you think?
Well, this one has video input. Connected my DVD recorder to it so now I can watch TV on my studio. I already had an old Philips video monitor for that, but this is far more convenient :)
