Double D

Ah, fuck playing in bands. Got fed up with that shit, but I did get to support the Kooks at the Astoria at least.

Just playing in university bands at the moment and working on my own projects. Which reminds me, I need to head over to uni tomorrow and do some recording.

So if I wear my Nudies in the rain for exactly 27 minutes and use Woolite Black does that make me a dunk chain?

My girlfriend's dad appears once more.

Actually in all fairness I suspect he breaks his Wranglers in by jumping underneath a truck and cleaning the chassis with a toothbrush. Don't ask.

a kid spearheading early 90's when he was barely born in the 90's...

Well, he does remind me rather of the kid whose mother assured him that he'll grow into his new clothes.

and to avoid a huge battle with the rest of you' date=' i normally am ok with cult's fits, but this one is just a bad robert smith tribute. shirt is like a tall tee from footlocker and the jeans are tucked into his shoes. the 80's were fine, and it's fun to see pics from that era, but reliving the bad trends from the 80's does not carry over today.[/quote']

Dude, fashion today is just a bunch of fucking late 70s/early 80s rehashes.

Anyhow, only thing putting me off of the fit is the massive dressy shirt against the short jacket. Change up either of those pieces and it's golden.

I dunno man... is it me or do those Diors have honeycombs halfway down his calves?

Your crotch is glowing.

If my girlfriend is a size 28 in girls jeans and size 28 stretch jeans stretch to sacks within one wear on her, would a size 26 Super Slim Kim be a good purchase?

Looked on the Nudie forums and completely failed to find any definitive answer on just how far those fuckers stretch.

I found me a bar in Brighton that sells Kirin Ichiban. Smooooth.

I don't mean to be hating on people so much lately, normally i try to be positive, but we've had some royally awful fits coming into waywt

Beat me to that one. All over print matched to SBs with horribly fitting jeans = no thanks.

that out fit is ruined for me by the trainers,top half is like a different picture looks good,just jeans and trainers dont really work with the smartness of top half

I completely disagree, but then the probability of me rocking out a shirt and skinny tie with 501s and bust ass canvas shoes is pretty high on any given day. The particular choice of trainers and the tongues out is indeed putting me off of a great outfit though, and actually looking again the cut of 1933s is way too slouchy and casual for the top half. So I agree, but I think jeans and sneakers could work fine with the right pieces.

Oh, and a navy/mono day for me too. Must be something in the air round these parts.

and whos the bastard that said these cuffs would look better on a chick? maybe hes right? maybe hes wrong.

Peanut catcher turnups were in my girlfriend's copy of Glamour magazine, under the header 'Top 5 Male Fashion Crimes'.

What the hell is with the current proliferation of Burberry scarves?

Words of advice: if you stray upon these shores, only ever wear a Burberry scarf in serious irony. Actually, that applies to any item with extremely obvious Nova Check.

Buzzcocks, this year. Everyone was a bit weirded out by their newer material, then they came back on and did a half hour encore of all their hits. Cue a couple of hundred 40 year old men going absolutely batshit.

Of the other 80 odd bands I've seen this year, the long heralded return of My Vitriol at a one off gig in London was one hell of a show... not just because of the mammoth wall of sound coming from the band, but the absolute diehard nature of MV fans who came from all over Europe to cram into a 1650 head venue.

That's all I can be arsed to list right now.

Well the camera is dead, this is the best I can do off my phone for now...

Nice tee. I hate fucking British emo kids who all go round in identical I <3 NY tees.

Aye, those Superdry shirts are fucking sweet... they run way too big on me though :C

Also I'm pretty certain all the Superdry shirts I've encountered are indeed just plaid patterned cotton, not flannel.

I lasted a whopping 2 days once. I'm fucked if I ever want to kick in drinking beer. Never had any problem kicking the 10 Benson&Hedges a day habit though, which is weird.

That's essentially the problem i have with the Modern Amusement pea coat I got. But you see, I, like sphoxx it would seem, have broad shoulders but skinny ass legs.

How can one remedy this without compromising arm length or too much room?

Accept that when you're layered up like hell you're not necessarily going to look in proportion with mega-skinny jeans? On very cold days (a thing that is happening less and less in the south of England these past 5 years), I end up whacking out an old faithful pair of bootlegs over my 501s... keeps my jeans wearing in, keeps me warm and keeps my fit in proportion when I'm layered to sin with sweaters, scarves and jackets.

Yeah, high waists have been touted as the S/S07 essential jean for some time... Kate Moss has been seen in both skinny high waists and stonewash flares. Meaning it's less a death of 'skinny' and more a death of the much longer running low rise trend for the time being... Still, Lindsay Lohan has already been pictured wearing the same Chloe jeans as Kate Moss on denimology.co.uk, and a lookalike is already on sale in Topshop, so it looks like it's going to be the new retarded women's trend in place of the horrible city shorts/legging combo of the last year.

Still, both girls and guys should just stick to wearing stuff that flatters them rather than what's 'fashionable'. My girlfriend is a pretty much perfect hourglass, and quite rightly has entirely shunned the skinny trend and stuck to wearing bootlegs, and the amount of hipster idiot guys with thighs twice the size of mine trying to pull off skinny denim has reached breaking point lately.

I call the cops on my neighbors twice a weekend... sometimes more. They have an appreciation for techno and beer pong that I really can't come close to. I'd be fine with it... really... if not for the fact that the appreciation reaches new heights at 3 a.m. with all their windows open.

Try living in the centre of the UK's party town. It's not so bad where I'm living right now, but my flat which I'm letting at the moment is 5 minutes from clubland, and you're fucked if you're getting to sleep before 3 or 4 on the weekends.

I have real issues with the LVC sizing.

Basically they just cater to the 32x32, 34x34 group of people .... e.g. the "standard" sizes they will sell in mega-volume.

They don't seem to give a toss about short / tall / fat / skinny people anymore, whereas in the earlier Valencia street era early 90s, they made a much greater size range in the LVC collections.

Bah, fuck even proportions in jeans. It's all about the massive discrepancy between waist and inseam...

No waist size below 30 on the 505? What the hell is the point of having as high a preshrunk size as high as 30 on a slim fit jean, when the loose fit jeans come in a raw size 30?

Went to see These Arms Are Snakes, got drunk, ate Subway.
