What are you wearing today?

[Sonnytsunami]

Sonny & INTER, you two are too cute in the striped tops!
Sonny (again ) I think I am supposed to catch the garter, not the bouquet you wear the "girly" look very well! But don't stop wearing your "aggressive" rock & roll outfits when it suits you.

hi tangerine!

thanks a lot for your kind words))! i will tell inter you liked her look in her striped top as well (btw, i bought that top for her!! hee, hee.. i love stripes!!!)

mm... so if you catch the garter.. who is supposed to take the bouquet? i will save it for Susie , for being the best alternative-dressed girl i know. and that is a huge compliment coming from me, i guarantee!

thanks also tang for the compliment about my girly look although i agree the rock and roll outfits suit me best.

i bought me a damn pentax optio x digital cam and i cant pass the pics from the camera to the pc as my damn computer doesnt seem to know the camera is connected... even if i downloaded all the drivers from the cds and so on.. anybody can help, please?

oh tangerine, you look fab in blue! i love your grey jeans so much as well. you look manly YET very cool!!!

faust, dont forget to take a pic of your NIN look! my best friend missed their gig and she would love to be in your shoes now

feel fed up about the whole camera thing.. again i would love some help.. i hate technology!

luv, Sonny xxx

 

[adorefaith]

quirky you look amazing.....i adore that first outfit....i want to steal that entire ensemble for one day....

 

[tangerine]

Thanks Sonny!

I sent you a PM about the camera, but anyone else who has any ideas should feel free to offer suggestions, since I am not familiar with pentax digicams and I might not figure it out.

 

[Sonnytsunami]

thrillions of thanks...

Tangerine!!!!!!!

Guess what? Shortly after answering your kind PM... i managed to do it. i dont know how i did it but i was finally able to download the pics from my camera to the hard disk!!!

i tried to post the pic of me today but it seems it has too many pixels so it is too large for me to post here. i will soon learn about how to make things properly and i will send a smaller pic soon. Promised!

Your help was pretty much appreciated, man. You are an angel!

i hope you will follow my suggestion... (what i wrote about you and the blue colour being a perfect match!)B)

thanks again!!!

Sonny xxx (who doesnt hate technology that much now...)

Hello!

Everyone looks incredible and puts me to shame once again!

But here's my ensemble for today anyway.

-Some altered boy Diesel jeans
-Gold scarf and green sweater from thrift store
- White american apparel button up thermal
-aqua colored belt from Canal street jean co
-old beat up nike tennis classics (not in picture)
-small flowers worn in hair that I picked from mothers garden

sorry about the quality of the picture, I think I need to wash that mirror......

 

[a984mel]

hi woodenhouse, that striped top is actually a jumper in a large size, its from asda, a supermarket in UK that sells clothes too, it was ridiculously cheap!

 

[Fade to Black]

that's some interesting style you got there, Capita. Especially the flower, which was a nice touch with the scarf/sweater color combo. You carry the thrift store chic look well.

 

[Sonnytsunami]

first pic of me posted taken with my new camera

this pic proves:

-a- my mirror is the dirtiest of them all
-b- i am a mess taking pics with this machine from hell and especially dealing wih the flash
-c- i seem to be wearing all the items you have already seen such as my d&g jeans (at least now you get to see more of them), my red and white striped tshirt and.. oh wait, you get to see my black military (more like from the navy) jacket by H&M and my orange converse all stars trainers. ooops, no belt today but of course the usual chain hanging from my jeans (that is the item i will take to the grave with me.. i wear it almost every day...

will try to improve my photographic skills from now on...

 

[tangerine]

Sonny, glad you got it going! I was busy reading the manual and writing you another PM, just disregard it.

Thanks for your kind words. I will remember about blue!

I love the jeans/chain/stripes and wish I could see the jacket and Converse better, but I know your picture taking skills will improve rapidly now that you've got your camera going.

And CAPiTA, that's an awesome look! Nothing whatsoever to be ashamed of.

[drexl]

thanks for the compliments, susie and tangerine...good to see you postin around here again tangerine.

drexl cool outfit. how are those Acne blazers in terms of pricing and fit? Pretty reasonable and slim?

Thanks Tangerine, faust and Fade To Black!

faust - you gotta show us your NIN outfit!! I am considering getting the Cloak FW05 Hussar jacket in black leather and match it with some black skinny jeans and beat up combat boots for the show myself

Fade To Black - I think they're great, Dior Homme slim (high and narrow armholes, slightly cropped, thin lapels...I compared the measurements from the jacket and a DH one in the same size and they are exactly the same, 17 inch shoulders and 40 inch chest for a sz50), the one I have is made of virgin wool and only cost me $200 on sale (it's around $400 at retail), less than what I paid for my Dior Homme eye t-shirt! They have really nice ones this season, the model is the Aktie jacket. www.acnejeans.com

 

[Sonnytsunami]

"my picture taking" skills.. ha, ha

need to go to bed now.. it is almost 3:00 am here and i must work tomorrow but i wanted to thank you once again.

you are a f*cking angel, tang. thanks so much for your time, patience and effort.

sweet dreams (are made of this) and see u all tomorrow...

keep cool!

 

[purexelegance]

thanks to urd, susie, goosemaster and tangerine and everyone else.

oh i must add, tsunami, will marry you if you go through with the paper work.

this thread just keeps me going through the day.

i adore you guys.

today, i went to class wearing a positively stunning smile. and a rather mediocre outfit.

i just love days when you can smile for no reason.

anyways,

today:
- pair of guess heart wire earrings (12 dollars)

- express black tank
- beaded necklace from anthropologie (that was on sale)
- 7 for all mankind jeans

WOW. That sounds perfect in every aspect imaginable, I'll be on the look out for those when I go shopping in the city ... probably saved myself a cool thousand, thanks for putting me on to these. Do you know if they're available anywhere in New York or Toronto? Thanks again!

Last season they had the grey and navy version, but this winter I'm pretty sure they had a regular black wool one. Here's better pics of the jacket this season:
