Today I’m asking for fashion advice.
Well not so much “fashion”. I realize that a large majority of what I wear isn’t really fashionable in any larger scheme of things, but I like to think that somehow I still look presentable without fitting in. But the advice part is very accurate.
Anyways, I’m sure it’ll come as no surprise by now that yes, I wear women’s clothing. A lot. And if it is a surprise, then you never listen to me when I talk about shopping! Come on guys. Just about all my jeans are women’s, because let’s face it: boys’ just aren’t skinny enough for this little frame. Having trouble with this? Here's some of my jeans to give you a visual breakdown:
 |
| Normal boy jeans? Guess again. |
 |
| Of course these are girls. |
 |
| Obviously... |
 |
| Yep, Wet Seal. |
 |
| Not jeans, but still women's! |
 |
| Long-term loan right from an actual girl! |
 |
Surprisingly, these are actually men's.
Now to the question… I was shopping at Guess the other day and tried on a pair of jeans. They were 50% off but still $70, and I’m wondering if it’s worth it. Obviously I won’t be able to wear these jeans all the time… but I can’t get them out of my head! They fit awesomely and shone like stars in the night sky- doesn’t that sound like something I should be a part of? Here they are!
So, could I pull these off? It might be tricky since this picture is of a shapely model, so here’s an artist’s rendering of what it might look like with me wearing the jeans to give you an idea:

| See the difference? |
Thanks for your attention, and thanks for your help! Please let me know what you think… do you want to see me in silver jeans? GO! |
So I like what you've done with the second pic by the way. I feel like I can visualize yourself in these pants now when they are sans heels.
ReplyDeleteI say go for it. How I measure how badly I want (and subsequently deserve) something, is by how much I think about them later. I know its a for sure thing when I dream about whatever it is that night.
dude! i can see you in silver jeans... was actually wonder after this post why you haven't busted them out yet! GO!
ReplyDeleteps - love the visual demo!
I forgot you had my pants! They best be in mint condition. & yes I would say I half expected you to already own a pair of tight silver jeans.
ReplyDeleteyou should definitely buy them but wear them with the heels.. yummm.....
ReplyDeleteis it me or are the anonymous people on this blog just getting more and more creepy? ha ha thanks for the support so far guys!
ReplyDeleteCaitilin- yes don't worry I take very good care of your pants! and if you forgot about them i guess you don't really want them.. ha i'll hang on to them for now.
Thanks Brian!
And Sara, if you're dreaming about me in these jeans then i definitely think that's a sign to go for it. What? did i not read that right?
Honestly that artists rendering does not do these babies justice! And I'm pretty sure you know that you NEED these pants. In fact here's a test that I just made up based on a motivational poster in my mother's classroom: flip a coin, not because it will decide for you, but because as that piece O' silver is going head over heels in the air you will secretly know what you want it to land on! I know right? It's super deep, and it means you'll have those jeans in no time!
ReplyDeletep.s. your anonymous readership... oh my.
Ah Andrew! I am all for this progression in your skinny jean trend! I, too am quite surprised that you haven't started to rock this baby on your own...
ReplyDeleteThe girl rule of thumb on purchases is that if you think about it too much after trying it on, you need to buy them. There's always more money to be made, but these jeans won't be on sale forever! (Sadly this reasoning process works on me all too often..) So yep, I support the silver skinnies. Sidenote: I'm also kind of disappointed that I haven't seen you rock the white ones in person. I feel jipped.
agreed with sara. we both follow the same religious beliefs that if you see something and you can't tell at first impression whether it's love or lust at first sight, sleep on it. if you're still day dreaming about it - they belong to you.
ReplyDeletego get em bb.
You're not a bloody astronaut. Much to perhaps the disdain of all commenters thus far, do not "rock" the silver jeans. Don't you want to be able to look down on a sunny day? Save 'em for 2053, when everyone will be wearing silver clothing... And they'll probably be way cheaper. That, or by 'em and enjoy eating food out of a tube, Buzz Aldrin.
ReplyDeletehmm... thanks girls this sounds like good advice. The keep-thinking-about-it theory I mean. Ha and yes Alex, what a deep look into my inner self!
ReplyDeleteLorelei- don't feel jipped! Since they're white I can't wear them very often... but you've seen my other white jeans at university!
and now Mike... you make a strong argument. And a funny one. I like that. You're confusing me though! Who should I believe? Are these other people just enabling me?
Hey, you knew I was an enabler when you asked me to read this! And don't listen to Mike, you could be an astronaut if you really wanted to... and then we could get you some matching silver kicks!
ReplyDeleteI knew if I came back later to check up on the comment it would be worth it! It's like putting cookie dough in the oven! LOL... Mike may be right, however year 2053 you'll be how old? You might as well rock 'em now and that way when our gravitational pull and atmosphere are all jacked up, you've already broken them in and you can move freely in them! lol... plus as Alex suggests you can get matching silver kicks... but somehow I think you already own a pair!
ReplyDeleteI would like to find out who that first anonymous writer is, she sounds HOT!
ReplyDeleteOh, and about the jeans, GO FOR IT! let your true colors frolic in this world you only got what 100 years max?
Yes, they are indeed enablers. Skinny jeans are your heroin. I'm asking: will you take the help that's being offered to you today? There are many wonderful garments made specifically for men! We have our own clothing now! Come on back, we have cookies and clothing that doesn't hug the sack.
ReplyDeleteYES Alex Supra actually makes some sweet silver shoes... here's an example

but oh my word that would be a lot of shine.
Brian i love your cookie dough simile! ha ha very good- i'm going to put that in my title. Very good points as well, i only have partly silver shoes at the moment but it would be great to break in my jeans while i'm still flexible enough to do so!
Anonymous#2- thanks for the great advice and the death clock, but why do you assume Anonymous #1 is a she? hmm...something strange going on here...
Hey sorry i missed you Mike, we were commenting at the same time how crazy is that!? And i wear SOME garments made for men... but i like to think that all my clothes hug my stuff an appropriate amount... ha but i didn't realize you have cookies. You bake now?
ReplyDeletecommentaholics anonymous anyone?
