Random Rhetorical Hypebeast Fashion Thoughts

Are birckentstockts comfortable for people with non fat feet?

Just got my package from Patrik Ervell's webstore, really nicely packaged in tissue with a ribbon. I like it when stores package things nicely.

I ordered a bracelet from matchesfashion and it came in a big box and inside was a slightly smaller marble print box with a magnetic closure, and inside that was bunch of tissue paper and a little velvet drawstring pouch with finally the bracelet inside.

anyone have any tips for shopping on y!jp? as internet-savvy as I consider myself I still find myself completely overwhelmed and lost every time I go on there

Having Chrome for auto-translate is helpful. I use from-japan to proxy. Brad from SF/harajuju wrote up a pretty good guide.

[birdman caw]

also it's really helpful to figure out what the translations for brand names are, since some pieces are only listed under the translated names

Pound is at a 5 year high to the yen. Is it time to start taking punts on cheapie bargs?

[bels]

Doesn't make sense majjj. Shipping and import tax will be lower because the shipping is charged in yens and the import tax will be a percentage of the items total value, which will have been set in yens.

Still expensive probably though sure.

[Syeknom]

Mad bargs to be had from the japans, should get on that. So should I.

[bels]

Not such a barg when you sized it wrong because the "Sink until end of tube" measurement is given in cm and you have to resell it on grailed to an apathetic crowd.

[Syeknom]

British retailers don't even list the sink until end of tube measurement! Awful

[exprof]

Idk, shipping from japan honestly costs less than shipping from within canada/us for me... o_o

Kind of want to sew a button on one of my scarves to make something similar to the Nonnative wanderer cape:




Thoughts on wearing them as a top layer? I'm feeling it.

[exprof]

I made one a while back! Also instead of a button you can just use an oversized saftey pin or some other cool pin. 8)

[Blastoise]

Sweet. I suppose that might be better because it isn't as permanent. Although I think it might be cool to cut a few small slits and run leather or suede lace through it.

waiting months seeing stuff on the runway, having it leaked through product shots and drip fed into your brain via social media only to find out the piece you wanted never made production is honestly the worst feeling a victim can experience.

[Yoder]

Found a better price on an item somewhere else only to find out after ordering that return shipping from the first retailer is 30 bucks so you've only saved pennies #madsalebargprobs

[BigDumbWhale]

Dickies styling on amazon is pretty fierce.

[harmsalmon]

nothin like that period of time between the day after you get your paycheck and blow all of it on clothes and the 5-7 days it takes for them to get to you

[smiles]

apparently you can dye things purple with basil?? definitely would like to try

I did an inventory of my tops (or stuff I can wear as tops) and saw I own way too many basics and not enough "interesting" ones. Gray shirts are a particular weakness... but to be honest they're mostly what I wear on a regular day so I guess that's great? Not to mention I have two yards of heather gray organic cotton jersey sitting around, just waiting to be made into even more shirts.

Cant help it though, the right shade of gray can be such a flattering and versatile color.

[bels]

Never apologise for having a wardrobe filled with boring neutral shade tshirts.

It's the rest of the world who don't understand.

[eufemism]

Had a dream that there was a levis x clarks collab. There were denim wallabees that looked
awesome. Thankfully they weren't those new wallabees runs i believe they're called

[breakadawn]

starting to wear more browns and earth tones and idk why I didn't do this before
