What would you recommend to a fuccboi who's about to start Uni/college, on what clothes I should buy first?
Let's assume I don't have any clothes, or that my current ones are shit. Is 200 dollarydoos enough to get the essentials?
2 black t shirts
1 white t shirt
1 gray t shirt
crew neck sweater
black slim jeans
indigo slim jeans
black button down
white button down
could probably get all those for less than $120 at h&m

I've got the basic HY haircut, and I'm tired of it being so neat everytime I put product in it. I have very thick, straight hair, that slightly waves when I blowdry it. How do I still style it back but get a more messier, tossled look? Picrelated. I currently use Hanz De Fuccboi's Claymation. Any tips?
>>8779438
1. take shower before u go to bed and blowdry hair badly
2. go to sleep
3. wake up with shit hair and overuse hairspray to try to save it.
thats how you get messy looking hair :)
i have thin hair which is shit and which means that mine never looks neat :(

if you could go back in time to when you first got involved with clothing, what would you tell yourself? il start
>get your measurements taken
>basics first, focus on the areas of your life you are wearing clothing the most, and then move outward from there. fashion is not about playing dress up on the weekends
>never buy anything on sale just because it's on sale
>focus on building a wardrobe you love, not following trends
>always think about the context of where you are going before putting on clothing, "living the /fa/ lifestyle" is not about being as "avant-garde" or "dressed up" as possible wherever you go. what you wear to a concert is different than what you wear to church with your family, and different than what you wear walking around the city, etc.
>remember that you don't "need" any article of clothing. yes it's nice to purchase things you love but all it does is benefit the extent to which you feel comfortable and "yourself" in your day to day life
>do NOT spend more money than you have. if your spending habits make you feel anxious, you're doing it wrong
hope this benefits someone on this board
the best advice for someone who wants to dress better is honestly the least understandable piece of advice when you are starting:
don't be afraid to spend a decent amount of money to get basic items. yeah you can get basic shit for the low, but once you have a plain tee that you really love and start to prefer over your cheaper tees, you'll understand
>>8791610
good list.
i think everyone is just destined to make the same mistakes when they start splurging in clothing though. you learn as you go along.
everyone buys a few outlandish pieces that look good in a vacuum but are hard to make a fit around so they just sit in your closet.
no matter how meticulously you get all your measurements you're going to buy stuff that doesn't fit; different brands just fit so differently.
>don't disregard solid basics - I bought 2 pairs of shitty asos/river island trainers before AF1s and wasted the cost of a pair of decent basic trainers
>don't buy shoes that won't fit - try shoes on and buy them online - bought size 11 boots when I should have got size 9.5 ;_;
>buy sportswear :) its only 2013 when you're starting and you'll be ahead of the curve and that shit lasts pretty well

You're not starting your thread well.
A lil survey
>Whats the Most Expensive Piece of Clothing / Footwear in your wardrobe (According to RRP)?
>Has your interest in fashion desensitised you to the high cost of fashion i.e. $100 plain t shirts?
>How frequent / expensive are your cops?
just curious about the copping nature of people on here
>$920 pants / $800 boots
>Definitely
>Don't cop stuff for months at a time, but they're usually $200-$500 at a time.
>>8765193
I have a Peak Performance parka which retailed for €300, however, I got it for 90. And a snowboarding jacket of the same brand for 280 to 100. I dropped 150 on Clark's, so that is probably the most I spent on a non-discounted clothing piece.
I have not been desensitized into buying expensive basics, simply because I can't. Being a student can be financially stressful as it is, and I am really careful about spending my money. I usually wait until brands start slashing prices, so that is a careful ordeal.
1. $400 down jacket, $300 boots
2. yes but i still don't find the high cost of 'luxury' basics justifiable
3. infrequent, depends on bills/'extra' money allotted for clothes. usually research or hunt for a long period of time
