Fashion Thread

[scottyboy]

This is mainly for Rob to tell us how to be as attractive as he is.

Also, because with a real, full-time, adulthood job, I need to totally revamp my wardrobe. Talking new dress pants, some new shirt/tie combos. The whole 9 yards. Maybe some new teacher sweaters, too. Mmmm.

Any great deals/brands/styles, etc.

Get a blazer with the patches on the elbows. All the underage girls will want you! It'll be like a buffet.

Preferably tweed.

Scotty as a teacher with a tweed jacket and elbow patches would be boss mode.

I ripped my favorite shirt yesterday.

But with a giant red R on the front of it, so everyone can know that Rutgers is the bee's knees.

[towelie]

he can teach the scarlet letter with it on.

I second the tweed as a solid choice.

[Paul]

Would the scarlett R on Scotty's blazer stand for Rape or Rambunctious?

Ledbury sale. Great shirts

[Brent]

Ledbury? How do you afford that shit?

Scotty, since you're a teacher like myself: J Crew Factory and Gap are your work attire friends.

[Rob S]

The sale is pretty decent. Can grab a bunch of shirts in the $50 range right now.

[bigbluedefense]

Meh, I'm more into solid colors than checkers and stripes.

I do need some summer sweaters though. I like wearing thin sweathers in the summer for nights out but not everyone sells them. They're usually winter weight.

J crew and gap seem like pretty good places to go.

Also, I totally want a tweed jacket with elbow pads now. And it's all you guys' fault.

The price range it was at when I posted the sale was about my max for a shirt. I'm pretty frugal with clothes, for the most part, because I'm trying to lose weight. Once I get down to where I want to be, I can throw $100 at a shirt like that and feel pretty good about it looking great and lasting for 10 years.

Uniqlo and Land's End Canvas are also great for good, inexpensive clothes.

J. Crew is great because they don't stock too many "mistakes" (i.e. bad purchases).

Question for those of you who wear sweaters: what's the best way to keep them? I'm finding putting them on hangers give you those weird little points on the shoulders and it's annoying.

You need to buy good hangers! Or you could just fold them, but they take up a ton of room.

wtf is the difference between hangers?!?

and that's the issue, I'm pressed for space so I'm in a quandry. Unless these fancy magical hangers really do the trick
