It's so much more fun wearing nice dress pants and making other kids look trashy

Have I mentioned before how I want to grow up to be Sebi?

Da......


I agree, I have a sick pinstripe suit that makes me look like the man.

A number of years ago, I started a trend among some close friends where we'd go out once in a while and have a "Reservoir Dogs" night. We'd dress up in black suits, skinny ties, and sunglasses and hit clubs and strip bars, etc. It was a blast.

Meanwhile, I'm savoring a nice cup of café cubano. I thought I'd try to make the stuff in honor of Fidel (Fabi is going to hate me for this, I know ). I used to have neighbors while I was living in Maryland who were Cuban expats/refugees who moved up from Florida for work at the time. They made some kick ass Cuban coffee, and I think I've finally recreated it... :coffee:

That you're thinking about this at age 19 is cool to me, IMO.

Certainly, jeans are the expected and most accessible attire choice. It's all I generally wore at 19 unless I was required for work, a wedding, or some other event. But the truth is there's a lot more out there than jeans -- and jeans all the time can be so one dimensional, as you note.

And if someone is 19 and dumping hundreds of dollars on just one pair of jeans, they could easily get a great pair of "non-jeans" pants for that price. Not necessarily bow-tie-and-tux, but something that is classy, has clean design lines, fits extremely well, and might even fool people into believing you're a person of culture and taste.

To spend $300 on jeans has become, to me, like dumping all of your money to trick out your Honda Civic... when you could instead buy a nice BMW for the same price.

It's better on the East Coast of the US, for example, than it is out West here. People are casual all the time in California, where you see people still dressing up for an evening out in places like New York. About the only place to see people dress up in SF anymore is the opera ... I've even been to the symphony where most of the people showed up as if they just got out of the gym.

how about dressing up in a wig and pantaloons? I doubt people wore armani suits to see Aida at its first showing. The majority determines the boundaries of good taste and It seems as though it has been accepted as a part of everyone's wardrobe.
As for comparing jeans to a civic, I am sorry but you have just foregone all the nuances this rich fabric is capable of. Quick example, the brand Levi's everyone s been talking about has jeans selling for 300-400 $ and at the same time offering its low-end trucker 30$ jeans. I could bring in extensive illustration of this phenomenon through other brands/styles.
If you cant recognize the complexity of the beautiful thing we call denim I'll take you shopping next time you're back home

N.B: let me be a denim snob and tell you people that diesel was "out" 4 years ago thanks

I had no idea hambon was banned.

Looking around -- yep. Looks like he has a week ban. Can't say I know why though, other than the message he can see when he tries to log in.

http://www.revolveclothing.com/brandpages/TrueReligionJeans.jsp : the joeys have been real popular the past 2 years but as you know flared is kinda out so you need some frankie B's something like this http://www.revolveclothing.com/productpages/ANTI-WJ64.jsp

but these guys make in my opinion the best jeans for girls sizes 0-4 http://www.einstein.it/ check out their 525's

Interesting. I had to look out of curiosity. But I mentally can't get past the lowbrow connotations of jeans, no matter what the price. I see the pictures of those models in those jeans and I think, "smack addict whore".

That's a lot of money to pay to look dressed down.

I agree, Greg.

its not dressed down thats the whole thing, there are day/night jeans, loungy/after hours jeans; it's a lot more complex than you d think.
