Gimme, tFS forums are quite friendly. Ive been here for 7+ years!

There are even some sub-forums who are extra friendly compared to others. Like this one. So no need to feel bad.

About fashion neurosis. I am stylist. I work as a stylist.

When Im being introduced, most girls get super excited because I am an stylist but half of them take a look at me and say: "Really?".

Hi, My name is Marco, I am a stylist and I am a fashion slob.

I hate how people think that because you ARE a stylist you have to dress like Anna Dello Ruso 24/7. When you style you need to wear sporty clothes. And when I dont style I like to wear weathered, comfty clothes (Ill admit it .. my style is borderline derelicte).

At least I DO know that when I meet a client I have to wear at least a jacket .. and dressy shoes. But I mean, people, give me a break!

PS I very distinctively remember this one time when I was working for the top fashion magazine of the country and I was outside the publishers with a whole bunch of shopping bags smoking and waiting for the car to arrive when one of the big kahunas from the publishing company took a loooong look at me asked the security guards who I was RIGHT ON MY FACE. He said I was a stylist working there, I just turned, blew the smoke on his direction and replied "Yes, you pay me to dress people". (No wonder they didnt renew my contract) lol
