Jess Bartone 1,820 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Fashion is just another industry con job. I wear basically the same "style" of clothes as I did 40 years ago. Jeans, T-shirt or collared shirt for fancy, boots. If anyone judges by clothes, they are instantly worthless to me and are dismissed. Link to post Share on other sites
delancey 1,226 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I have seen similar posts in all types of forums. It comes down to people that don’t care how they dress saying they don’t care what others think and those that put an effort to dress well defending why it matters. Then a big circle. In the Philippines it is too hot and dirty and too casual to try very hard, even for those that might want to. (imo) Link to post Share on other sites

I was levitating - now you know why I don't do sarcasm But it does make it very easy to be believed when I'm not telling the truth - except to Charity I've actually changed the cut of what I wear - they don't make skinny jeans with a 44" waist and 31" inseam 32 x 31 they do - don't have to worry about pickpockets Edited January 28, 2018 by lamoe 1 Link to post Share on other sites
