What to wear?

I have no fashion sense. This is not a boast, more of an admission of guilt. I wear black. Lots of black. Things have been thus for many years. I figure that black suits me and doesn’t draw too much attention to the fact that I can barely find things that don’t look terrible on me. The thing is, tomorow night I ill be accompnying my lady to a house party. Now, I am looking forward to the party and the chance to catch up with friends and have a few laughs, but it does fill me with a certain amount of dread.

What to wear?

I could go in my usual ensemble of geek themed shirt, open shirt over that, and black jeans or combats, but wouldn;t that seem rude? I should make some kind of effort, but effort on my appearence is something I am not too adept at, thanks to the lack of hair and the lack of style. I blame being far more interested on the inside than the outside. Maybe I should go festooned in tinsel and baubles. Or perhaps in drag. Maybe I should dress as the Doctor. Oh, wait, I already did that at a party.

I’ve bought a number of new garments of late, and am sure I will fling a few together into something resembling an outfit, but the simple fact that I am completely cack-handed with my outward appearence remains constant. Hpefully people will be far too drunk to care.

Then again, they are my friends so it won’t matter anyway. They are far more interested in people than clothes and labels. That’s pretty damn festive, all told. Here’s to friends.

As it happens I'm wearing my Epic Fu shirt today ;) Ive committed a fair few fashion crimes being part of the Industrial/metal scene locally, but am thankfully maturing now. Changing the colour of the shirts I wear has been about as extreme as I've got this past year- subdued colours suit me so green, charcoal and khaki seem to do the trick. You're right, people do copy each other, no matter how much they may deny it.

Regarding the video (and Youtube), I haven't set my country preferences, not that it probably matters, and am able to view pretty much anything. I should test that though really. I'm always rather suspicious of people who disallow embedding- isn't the point of putting content up on there to get people to see it wherever they are? Bah.

Speaking of embedding, this song is no doubt going to be stuck in my head all day now. Roll on the party tonight. I might request it...

We're a global band of kids/geeks/freaks who love art/tech/gaming/music/politics & life. Love the web. Live the FU.

LOL @ earwax. I have never been a big fan of Pioneer headphones. The last Pioneer headphones i purchased were the SE-NC70S and in about three months the right side died out and the battery life was crap. What I do like about pioneer is the sound q...

Well I have the 2006 80 GB classic & the 32GB iPod touch both sound qualities are great but I must agree about the classic being better. I've been getting alot positive feedback about Sennheiser so I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the info!

lol dear Mr. Wolf, I've gone down this road before. I can't handle the uncertainty and mind boggle. Have you seen the movie "The Believer"? If so, remember the end? The dude keeps climbing the stairs, again and again, each time facing the same man...
