I agree. That is not the dress.
I need to find a dress that is chuck friendly, then. Really, my only complaint against them is the typical sockless shoe requirement, so if this can fashionably be amended, I'm all for it.
dresses and sneakers are stupid
no exceptions
I see women in skirts and sneakers, but I think it's too much of a punk kinda thing, I'd look goofy as hell trying to do it. :(
It is entirely punk and it's entirely stupid and ugly.Quote:

Flats would work for you I think. Here let me find a pair, wait a sec...Quote:

These are from forever21 and they are only 20 bucks. Comfortable and cute. I did pay full price for that dress, it's so cute I want it now! :)
The rest of us aren't rockstars. We don't have to accept sneakers with dresses because the girls wearing such an ugly combination are not going on stage after we see them.
your face looks fine you stupid dorkQuote:

I really don't care much for jewelry, but I like to have a plain necklace on to fidget with. I've got the one pictured that my stepmom gave me, and a string of small pearls that I got from my boyfriend's parents. They both look okay with the dress. I'll try the hot librarian hair up thing, lol, but I plan on cutting it short soon (long enough to pull back since I rarely like it down)
I just wear black flipflops with the dress, the somewhat platform ones. They're my only non-sneakers. I cheat and put socks on once I get to work or stay home though.

Blv.
I would say that dress is a little too..err...dressy for flip flops. I would rock some heels with it myself. I do love me some flats though. If you don't like heels, try kitten heels they are pretty much flats with like an inch heel. Like so:
http://www.zappos.com/images/723/723...4-257780-d.jpg
If you wore these, side part your hair with low pony tail, ditch glasses, put on snazzy victorian style black necklace. Keep twins out. Profit.
I might be able to hide socks in those. I have some thin, wide ankle opening black socks that I got with my old pair of heels for high school graduation, you can't tell they're there. Hmm. I can't walk in heels at all, though. Not very practical. I prefer something I'd be able to run in if need be.

Kittens are like heels for noobs. They are very easy to walk in. Why do you cling to socks so much? I wear socks to the gym and in my BDUs and that is all. Unless it's winter you don't need them. Heels aren't for running, they are for making the sexy time.Quote:

Incorrect. Most men like women with a sense of a style. Like heels. Or hills. Not sneakers with dresses, though.Quote:

it's not a style or preference. It's sort of 'I am medically retarded and I'm a drippy sweaty white person' problem.
Also, style wise, I can't really ditch the glasses. Wore them for years but I've got eye allergies and the contacts don't give me enough air, my eyes get mad itchy. I can only wear them for a few hours at a time during off seasons. I think I look better in glasses, anyway.
Edit: Holy fuck, those shoes are $135? You've gotta be kidding.
what the fuck are hills? Heels? Then you're wrong butt, many men find heels to be enticing. it's a fetish.
You're hopeless. And I mean that in as nice a way as possible.Quote:

I know. Just explaining, since they asked. I have no issues with the style or general use of heels, though I prefer sneakers, but this is why I have a strict sock requirement. I'll happily wear anything if I can wear socks with it.Quote:

Those would be considered flats, my dear.
I see that, as they're mostly flat. I'm trying to find something I can wear that doesn't look silly with a casual dress.
They would be fine. As long as the color matches the dress.
The red label bothers me, cause the dress is purple and black. If you ripped that red tag off. Then yes. perfect for your problems.
Also ... stockings. They are like socks, but they are more airy so it feels like you are wearing nothing. I'm sure you heard of them.
I'd laugh at you if you walked by me wearing socks with anything other than sneakers. I'd also laugh if you were wearing the sneakers with a dress.Quote:

Has to be cotton socks. I know I'm insane and dumb so don't bother going there again. I've obviously tried to solve the problem, and failed. Rich, the entire point of socks and me pointing out that they're cut differently is that you can't see them with a lot of shoes. If they don't have an exposed toe or side, the sock is hidden. Everyone wins.
You wouldn't get on someone's ass if they had a skin condition and didn't want to wear an exposing tank top. Think of it that way. I wear socks, and want nicer shoes. It's not amazing.
here Nomi this is what I am talking about.
http://www.delpstockings.com/cotton.html
go with a solid color. Vertical or horizontal lines would make the ensemble retarded.
Thanks. That is genuinely helpful, Advocate. I have a hilariously slutty plaid miniskirt I got as a joke gift and I should totally rock it out with some cotton stockings.
**Shocking I know**
You're welcome.
Yes. It means a certain amount of men like women with heels. Some, those who have the fetish, like them a whole lot more than most, but that doesn't mean all men don't like heels.Quote:

It's like there's a uniform for appropriate club wear:

- Obscenely tall heels
I guess I just prefer girls that can be categorized as pretty or cute rather than hot.
But if you come home around closing time and need to get laid because of a rough day, which girl will you be going after? ;)Quote:

Exactly what I'm talking about.

I still have a crush on Nomi.
I'm thinking about purchasing this fine timepiece:
http://www.bungersurf.com/nixon/nixo...white_hero.jpg
Usually I think Nixon watches are overly priced or overly ugly, but this one is only ~$130 and is hell of classy.
ugly imo
round faces or bust
Why would you buy a watch in this day and age?
When do you not have your cell?
IBTN
I only wear a watch when I put on a suit nowadays. Even then, I still usually don't.
i realize this is just after everyone has declared their hatred for heels, but.... omg shoes!!! i just got these last night. the black ones are for a wedding and the green ones are because i heart green shoes for life. i rarely buy high shoes bcs i rarely wear them but these are def exceptions to the rules.
I'm getting a tattoo of Cthulhu on my right arm from the shoulder to a little past the elbow.
That's my style.
Then comes the band-aid over a scar on my elbow.
Nah, I like squares. Its wierd, I know. It's just my thing.Quote:

A friend of mine just dropped by 50+ pairs of vintage shoes from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. I wish I had a picture of my friends and I going through them, it was quite a spectacle. Keeping some, selling some, but all the heels were too small for me. :/
I love high heels but they are incredibly impractical for just about anything I do. And I'm a whiner, "wah wa wah, these make my feet hurt."
Nomi, if you'd like to wear flat shoes with a dress, the dress must be pretty short. Long dress + flat shoes = kinda of blah. They aren't necessarily a bad combo, just sort of boring. If you like boring (god knows I do) it's fine. Socks with them...wellllll, you can punk it up and wear knee or thigh high socks, flats, and a shorter dress, but depending on how cliche you feel it might not be so nice.
I don't think I've worn a dress in years. hm.
I guess if a girl is trying to get 100% dolled up, heels are okay. Otherwise, noting appeals to me more than a girl in sensible footwear. Save that pretentious shit for someone else- I don't want to hang out with a girl that can't break into a sprint at any given time.Quote:

I think square faced watches are ugo too. It's not that it goes against the norm, I just don't like them.Quote:

I do splurge on clothes every now and again. I probably only wear heels 1-2 times a week, the rest of the time it's chucks, pumas, tigers or flip-flops.
Edit: LOL @ Dole.
Fuck it then. I'm a firm believer in as long as I think it looks good, I don't give a shit what anyone else thinks. Fortunately, I'm usually right. This also doesn't stop me from mocking other people's decisions, though.Quote:

One time I was wearing one and tried to open up a door but because of the extra weight I misjudged my own strength and ended up swinging my hand in to a womans eye really hard causing blindness. But now when I recant the story I tell everyone she went blind because I'm so handsome. True story.
I have this amazing watch my great-grandma bought for my nana when she graduated high school, and it got passed down to my mother and then me. It's a gold Bulova watch, but it unfortunately doesn't work (hoping it's just a battery) and it fits my tiny wrist perfectly. Once I have the cash I intend to get it fixed. Because it's old, I'm having a hard time finding someone that will look into repairing it. Reluctant to have a family heirloom be sent out, you know?
I only have one watch. My ex got it for me like three years ago. I only wear it on occasion, but I always get compliments on it.
Click for full size
That watch screams tacky with the cheap, plastic look.
That's not nice. But it is true.
Is that a Swatch?
It's the strap more than the face I don't like about it.
There is just no pleasing TNL :lol:
NOMI, NICE CANS.
EDIT: FUCK NOOOOOO about Steve & Barry's.... I love buying cheap ass work polos from them.
Hey, if you like it then you should wear it. But there's no denying that it's a cheap plastic watch. The face is perfectly fine but plastic straps should only be attached to happy meal watches.Quote:

And keep it simple. Black/brown leather strap with a small and quiet face. When you wear a wristwatch with a huge face, you're attention whoring and you're not going to get the right attention. Believe me, a small yet professional watch will give you the right look when you're aiming for style.
T-shirts under blazers ftl.
I'd like to know why that's a problem. Please, give me a reasonable explanation because all fashion gurus want to know why their opinions are wrong.

It has barely left this thread. Get over yourself.
I feel naked without a watch on, unless I'm at the crib, when I'm literally naked most of the time anyway.
I'd love to get a certain Patek Phillipe, but I don't want to shell out the dough for it because that's contract killer money.
