I dress in alot of dark colors. Alot of people here call me "goth" because of that,too,but they are pricks and idiots anyway.

I like my own style to say "unique" "intelligent" "cute" and "tough".


SOMETIMES,I'll dress androgynous,though.

Summer: A T-Shirt, usually with some picture or other graphic design on it, shorts, Tennis shoes and one of those short-sleeved overshirts that the skateboarders wear. sometimes i'll wear a bandanna or headband. I don't like hats very much, they're too scratchy.

Winter: LAYERS. Lots and Lots of Layers. if its below freezing or close to it, i'll be fully decked out in several layers, gloves, winter hat and scarf. I'll sometimes pull the scarf up so it covers my mouth and nose. I flaring hate the cold.

I just wear a shirt and pants all the time
I never wear girls clothes though, they're always really restrictive, whereas guys clothes tend to be more comfortable. I think this irritates my mum though, she'd rather I wore girls clothes

black, black, grey, black, white, black and grey.
baggy baggy baggy and loose. Haven't worn skirt/dress in over 6 years , but have kept two immense floaty skirts in black and sea blues "in case"! ! And long black dress!
mostly cotton, some wool, a little" poly etc
Found super shirt in Kiabi, cheap french chain; huge wide floaty cotton black and grey and white check with lines and cross lines so not "blocky" ; bought 5 of them!! :lol:
Anything i like i buy at least 2 or 3. If new stuff.
Love second hand too, for the "different" bits, the stuff that isn't totally "no message".

Like hoods,and hats.
And recently got more and more into boots, whereas in "youth" liked tiny light shoes s if no feet, not earthbound. Now i like the solid chunk of boot to hit ground with.
And very few bits of very simple big jewellery. Very occasionally.
And black , black and black, which is weird cos i used to be the one who wore the most brightly coloured stuff, and outrageous prints etc. But just can't handle them anymore.

I've never been into trends whatsoever. I seriously don't care.

I tend to wear cargo-type pants (usually dark)-- the more pockets, the better. And often I wear boys tops. Seriously, little boys get all the cool clothing (um, and I'm a 23-yo female). Most of my clothing is dark, but since I also really love rainbows, I will wear colourful things if it's something that appeals to me, which I'm very particular about. I do NOT wear white. I have one off-white/cream-coloured shirt that I like, but that's the closest I get. I've always collected band t-shirts, although I wear them a lot less than I used to, but I totally used to live in them. I never wear jeans. I never wear shorts that don't go below the knee. I like crazy socks. The wackier, the better. I've totally been known to wear dark, sorta-plain clothing with super colourful, silly socks underneath. For some reason that is hilarious to me. Oh, and I always wear a belt. I wear hoodies or hooded shirts a lot, and wear the hood up often.

AND NEVER, NEVER THONG SANDALS!! !! ! (or underwear, for that matter :P )

I basically either wear a black or really dark colored shirt, and black pants. If I wear jeans, I have nothing left in my drawer.

The only time I'll wear something with a design is if it has an awesome one, like my Great Wolf Lodge shirt with all of the wolves and the ravens and stuff in the back. I've actually been in two news things with that on for summer programs and stuff.

If I'm not wearing all black/dark, I'd either be extrememly happy and wearing purple or totally depressed and wearing gray. Yes, I choose my shirts by emotion. So what?

And no, I'm not attempting to be gothic with my "Dark Clothing" thing. Actually, my label is Optimistic Semi-Goth. Yes, I made that up.

When outside, I always wear long boots, a long, black velvet coat with purple lining and a black stetson. Underneath that, anything I can find that isn't unwashed.

All my clothes come from the thrift store. I simply don't understand spending excessive amounts of money on clothes.

Mostly I wear black pants or a long skirt and some form of loud blouse. I like outrageous colors and patterns. Though often I do wear monochrome outfits (all black), just so I don't have to fuss over finding something that coordinates. I definitely like jewelry. Silver with lots of dangling bits. For shoes... Err... I really hate wearing shoes to be honest. Especially women's shoes, they're like torture devices! So even in winter I tend to wear toe-socks and flip-flops. I get a lot of strange looks!

I also LOVE playing "dress up". Always have. Sometimes I decide to put extra effort into my outfit, and I get all sorts of stares and comments. My relatives tell me I pick out the weirdest things and don't know how to put together an outfit, and that even as a kid I dressed "funny". I don't really care though, as long as I like it, It's fine.

I've been told the same thing about the way I put on make-up... I don't wear much anymore, but when I was employed my co-workers actually didn't criticize me- they told me I should be a make-up artist! So It's all a matter of perspective.

I just wear a T-shirt and shorts if I am not at work. If I am at work, assuming that uniforms aren't required, I wear a Polo shirt and slacks.

my outfits are very boring for the majority of the year, but since i started wearing blue denim jeans as well as black, not all of my outfits look identical when i wear a jacket :roll:.
tight-ish black band shirt, jeans, casual shoes. two hoodies on top of that if i'm in class X____X (i'm very sensitive to cold).
in the summer, i'll throw in the occasional short skirt, fence-net stockings, striped thigh-high stockings, and/or combat boots.
every once in a while i'll wear striped/fence-net/fishnet stockings under a pair of ripped jeans.
but i really don't have much of anything top-wise that isn't cut like a t-shirt :/

I have very limited options when it comes to clothes. I hate shopping for clothes with a passion, so I go about twice a year to stock up.

When you have a 6'10" arm span, its pretty hard to find long sleeve shirts or jackets that fit. I end up bringing about 20 things into the change room and end up with 3 things that I can actually wear. The big and tall stores are no good either - they have the right length in the arms, but it looks like I'm wearing a nightgown. Arrow shirts are the only ones that fit right, so I got several of those, and Ecko hoodies seem to be made for people like me.

Shoes are a problem too, because my feet are unusual. I have size 12 EEEE feet, and most size 12 shoes are super-narrow. I'm stuck paying about $200 for New Balance shoes, so I take good care of them. I'm more comfortable in boots, actually, and I've found some decent ones with an ABS toe which won't freeze in the winter (much lighter too!).

Otherwise, I almost always wear a certain kind of black t-shirt (a store brand, not expensive) that seems to fit any occasion.

I also like skate or hip-hopish pants because they're comfortable, made in my size, and they tend to stay in fashion longer which is good because, like I said, I only buy clothes one or two times a year, and tend to keep my clothes for a long time. If I'm going to be forced to buy brand name stuff, I want things that will last.

Oh, yeah, LEVIS!

Out of necessity, my sense of style has calmed down,,, ok not really. I love to wear bright colors and i will take many fashion risks.. As far as floral prints or anything feminine, i prefer rounded patterns as opposed to stripes or linear floral designs. I have learned a few basic fashion rules, and i tend to follow them. Many of my outfits are a little childish in pattern and cut. I love a- line pinafores in Bright colors or rounded flower prints. I love mary janes. although i never wear the two together. Jeans every single day, unless its a special occasion, then its corduroys. In the summer, breezy short sundresses. I own about nine pairs of dr marten's shoes of differring styles and colors. I collect them like squirrels collect nuts. I even get excited thinking about them, like now. Hmm christmas is close. I think i am due another pair.
