I wore that? Really?

ascot

Just been clearing through my wardrobe to find some stuff to donate to the clothes charity that's coming around to collect tomorrow. Thankfully there isn't an awful lot in my wardrobe that I was aghast at, but then I did find this:

And I'm wracking my brains trying to figure out firstly why the fuck I bought this sweatshirt, what I would even wear with it and if I ever actually did wear it. It's like somebody planted it in my wardrobe! It's just not me!



But anyway, let's review past fashion faux pas and how hilarious our fashion sense was 5 years ago and how even worse our fashion sense now is going to look in 10 years time.

Thinly veiled fashion thread, but nothing mega here.

I really need to upgrade my fashion in general.

I had a shirt with The Crow movie poster on it, and wore it unironically for the longest time. And I have a nadesico shirt (lol animoo). And like 5 wwf shirts: two the rock shirts, one triple hhh, a Dudley boyz, and an undertaker shirt. I wish I could travel back in time and punch myself in the face

Viscount Islands

Now he wears Mean Girls and Glee shirts.

i have a bunch of vidya game shirts that i use as painting smocks to ensure I'll never wear them outside the house.

Spudge

Last year someone got me one of those "No I will not fix your computer" shirts, done up in the Star Trek: TNG font

I haven't worn it. Don't ever plan on wearing it

Or sell them for VINTAGE GOODNESS.

It seems a lot of people now have gotten on to those slip on Tom's style shoes. I honestly vote them for gayest shoe ever™

A few very loud shirts from my early teens are probably the most awful example.

Cilla Black

I look like a dork in pretty much anything, so it doesn't really matter anyway.

FAQ

everything I used to wear and everything I currently wear is awful

and to think i called you fashionable on twitter, ascot

I have the hardest time shopping for clothing that isn't in dark or dull colors. I kinda fell into a gothic phase when I was a teenager and I'm still so used to wearing darker clothing but ugh I just want to feel pretty.

Eventually I'll get more confident in what I wear, for now though I'm working on buying more than just a t-shirt with a decal on it, so even if it's yet another dark shirt at least it's a pretty one.

Octopus Melody

I wore this shirt with a big ol' dragon on it fighting a knight on a horse up until I was in like 6th or 7th grade and I never shoulda worn that shirt but man I loved dragons as a kid and some time after that I saw that movie about kids who go to a fat camp and one of the fatties on that movie wore the same shirt to add insult to injury.

ascot

Blegh. I hate the style, not that they're Tom's.

Send me that shirt, Ascot. I wear that kinda stuff.

Liiya

I used to wear some clothes that were not well fitting and just look wrong when paired together, I can't think of any specifics, but I've got a lot better at fashion I think.

MrMonroe

I threw away a pair of carpenter's jeans during my last move

I didn't even have the courage to bring them in with the rest of the stuff when I went to the Salvo, and instead drove ten minutes out of my way on the way back home so I could dispose of them anonymously in one of the drop boxes.

Marshmallow

I follow the "pick it off the floor and put it on" method of outfit coordination.

Green, orange, and blue, white socks with black shoes are the pairing for today.

Edit: Oh wait, one of my socks is white, the other is black.

baggy pants so baggy you could make 4 pairs of baggy baggy pants from them

crwth

i used to be such a little hot topic fiend until about my third year of college

i'm just now learning about how to not look like an asshole when i got outside

Quoth

anyone remember those shirts that changed color in the sun or heat or something

Yukira

I used to wear really baggy shirts. Not so much now.

My wife has smacked my fashion sense into place, although I still get a lot of Transformers, video game and super hero related T-shirts.

I'm in exam mode and haven't really done any washing

as a result I ended up wearing my hangover gear outside the house, felt like a shlub all day

My low point was in eighth or ninth grade.

I had a flip hairdo and cat's eye glasses. I essentially looked like this except for real:

Getting contact lenses and braces was one of the best things I ever did.

I can't figure out what to do with old softball shirts. I get one or two a year and once the league is over I'm stuck with the shirt and it seems like everyone else keeps theirs but who's got that kind of space?

I was 18 before my hair had anything vaguely resembling "style"

Ahaaha. Really? Oh man.


Ok, let's see. I currently own a shirt with Daredevil on it. That's pretty bad, I'm told.

Hooves

yeah

I used to wear uh you know eyeliner in high school

that combined with my signature black/brown motif and a number of other fashion atrocities makes me pretty sure I win this thread

I looked like my mother's high school yearbook from the 60's. And I thought I looked awesome.

I used to have ridiculous long hair, and wear scary looking lumberjack clothes. Now I'm pretty nondescript I guess. I'm content with that.
