yeah, if you can find a good blazer and jacket that fit you/you can have altered in a thrift store you already have a lot of options for when the weather isn't trying to kill people.
@witchknights my monthly budget for things that aren't food is about $100? which doesn't go terribly far with clothes, and usually I try to save about half of it. I haven't actually looked at any of those stores for ties specifically—I wasn't aware any of them sold them. (for general clothes, yes. I have this wonderful bomber jacket from Forever 21.) also lmao @ the boring lawyerdude—my mom is a lawyer so I know a LOT of those people. fortunately I do have a jacket that fits! a whole suit, actually. my grandmother got it for me from an outlet for Christmas. I am juuuust tall and wide enough that the smallest stuff off men's racks fits me (5'7"). and I love love love that suit, it's like the best item of clothing I own. @Vierran thanks for the tip! @Imoyram thank you so much! that shirt is so gorgeous, omg. and the backpack. I just really love florals, lmao.
I'm awake again and here comes a set of more affordable dress shirts in jewel tones, probably. I just kinda guessed for price. I love making sets for specific reasons
niiiiice also, I have my cute sailor dress on today, and I'm hit with a wave of "why don't I have more of these, they're so cute!" I just need one I can fit a binder under. And maybe a red one, and (continues on.)
Anyone else have any set requests? I wanna make more sets, I'm in a set making mood. Either outfits, or specific kinds of items (the dress shirts set kinda thing) I'd probably do most of them?
I am intrigued by coloured pants (as I mentioned earlier in this thread) but I can't seem to work up the nerve to pair them with anything but neutrals. Maybe a set like that?
I'm gonna assume masc and coloured pants? I can try doing that! :D Also @emythos mentioned candy coloured earlier, and my hand may have slipped... Hehe
I'm gonna give creepy cute and affordable jewel toned office wear but like in fun a go as soon as I can get my brain gathered!
uh, building off what I was talking about earlier cute sailor clothes? like the anime looking ones with the cute collars? preferably in colors other than white?
I have this set from a year ago isn called sailor, more generic and less anime, maybe of interest to you? Link
d'aww, it's cute :D wish it had the collars though here, http://www.modcloth.com/shop/dresses/sea-shanty-singing-dress
Aaah Ok! That might be hard to find on polyvore because it generally doesn't have many... Costume-y clothes? (Not saying they have to be costumes) I can try and look for something! Were you thinking a set like the dress shirts or an outfit idea? (Outfit idea might be easier because only need to find one of the dresses, but I could totally give either a shot)
