What Do You Wear?

[Kellhus]

What is your personal style? Do you care? What MBTI and Enneagram type are you? Do you have a color/particular article of clothing preference? What are the brands you wear?

 

[The Gopher]

I DON"T CARE if it's black and not stupid I will were it. I do like suits however but just for the kick I get out of it.

 

[EyeSeeCold]

I do care but I think it would be weird to wear great clothes one day then bland ones the next. I don't like to raise people's expectations nor do I like inconsistency. If I could change my whole wardrobe with a budget of like $2000 I'd really step it up. But for now it's just mostly dark colors, long-sleeves, boots and a jacket.

I think it's a common INTP problem to hate doing mudane tasks, right? Well, I freakin' hate doing laundry, and even more, I hate putting it away when it's done. So...I wear jeans and whatever's on the top of the basket. This results in wearing a lot of wrinkled clothing, at which point I usually wish I was less lazy.

That said, I mostly shop at the big department stores; JCPenny's, Dillard's. But also Target. So.

Hmmm. I'm certain there is a substantial thread about this around here somewhere.

Edit: You might find this of interest.

There needs to be an option for: Stylish, but inexpensive.

Cargo pants/shorts. I bought a lot of plain polos from Old Navy this past summer. Cheap as hell, $8 a shirt!! All new stuff.

Disclaimer: I do not work for Old Navy.

I remember, my answer is pretty much the same.

 

[Cavallier]

^As is mine. I still have the exact same articles of clothing I mentioned before.

 

[IfloatTHRUlife]

I wear the skins of animals i have slain.

 

[Tyria]

Anything comfortable and clean that isn't distracting or gaudy.

 

[SQ_Minion]

Jeans, t-shirt, black hooded sweatshirt, Converse high-tops.

I like to wear things that make sure I don't stand out. I like to look clean but not so preppy that I come off as trying to be preppy. So I'll wear things like plain or subtle t-shirts or long sleeve shirts, striped or plain button up shirts, a few patterned shirts, jeans or khaki's, cargo shorts, etc. I generally avoid designer things, and I hate "trendy" things like the tight shirts with tribal like patterns that are popular with guys lately.

I absolutely refuse to wear something with a theme or subject unless I fully understand and support the material. For example, I would never wear a shirt with a quote from a poet unless I have read the majority of the poet's works and probably some form of a biography. Even though I remember loving the movie Tron, I would not wear a Tron shirt because I don't consider myself a devout follower. Even though I like "The Who", I do not feel as though I have put enough time and effort into really delving into their music to wear a shirt featuring the band.

 

[s0nystyle]

stuff that fits skinny people. don't care too much about the price because it's hard enough to find size 28 pants for guys that IS NOT children's size

 

[Jesse]

I don't own much clothes and the clothes I do buy I try to get someone else to buy them or take someone along to convince me to buy stuff. I wish clothes was unnecessary or I just got delivered awesome clothes to my house so I wouldn't have to think about it.

 

[Anchorite]

Plaid. Lots and lots of plaid.
I pretty much only wear blue jeans with plaid dress shirts.

Weird, I feel similar to this. I love a bunch of bands' work but I don't think I could ever qualify to wear a shirt.

 

[Thoughtful]

With the exception of shoes, I buy everything secondhand. Of course, I work in a thrift store, so I'm there all the time, and when good stuff comes out, I can take my lunch break and buy it. I miss a lot of things that come through, but I get my fair share of cool stuff. You'd be surprised at all the good things people give away.

Some loot includes:
Iron Maiden tee (I consider myself a devout Maiden fan, wouldn't wear any other band)
Skull and crossbones tee
Elements hooded sweatshirt
Two blazers that acctually fit me (whish is wierd, I'm a skinny fellow.)
A buttload of Cargos

And that's just some clothes. (found a brand new gas-mask in with some surplus gear once... )

OT though, I find that it's usually a good Idea to buy nice new shoes and orthodontic inserts for them. Take care of your feet, and your feet will take care of you. I usually wear Ecco for work (expensive, but with all the wear I've put them through, it was worth it, + they have a 1 year warranty), Currently wearing the white HT Converse that will go with my Doctor Who costume for Halloween.

EDIT: I also have a few witty tees I bought new online. Thinkgeek stuff mostly.

 

[Cavallier]

The shoe bit is true. I wear Keens a lot. They were recommended to me by a nurse who's on her feet a lot and she was absolutely right about how they could carry me anywhere. I've literally worn all the way through the soles in both pairs I've owned. They have lots of toe room (which makes me look a little like a duck) but I never get blisters.

 

[Ska]

I wear brand name only, second hand only, and I also go nude.

 

[Thaklaar]

I wear whatever my wife tells me to wear.

 

[DarkGreen]

I only like comfy, if it's not comfy I will not wear it. It also can't be skimpy because that means I'll get cold so I really like wearing baggy stuff, mostly cotton.

 

[Dormouse]

Mostly second hand and vintage stuff, because looking presentable is awesome but I am broke. And even if I did have pocket change I certainly wouldn't be spending it on clothes.

Racecars are what I'd blow my earnings on. Vroom.

 

[dark]

Dark colours, mostly black, and the shirt has to have either an Iron Maiden picture or something almost as cool.

 

[Mello]

I wear clothes.
