I have a casual style. Just jeans and t-shirts. Sometimes button downs. I don't like shorts. Not sure why. If I get a career I'd really, really like to wear men suits. So that should be interesting.

i agree with the casual!! my idea of dresse up is usually my "good jeans", polished cowboi boots. either a good tee or a button down with a sport coat..
sometimes ill wear my tux shirt "that the sleeves are neatly torn out of" and leather jeans with matching sport coat

Here to join the casual brigade :P I prefer to stick to jeans/cargos and t-shirts/longsleeves/sweatshirts. When dressing up I'm kind of like cody in that I tend to go for the "good jeans." Will wear dress shirts/button downs, polos etc., and dress pants if needed, but really not into the whole suit thing. Luckily I work at a job where the dress code = sports wear.

But...have my first work Christmas party soon and while we don't have to get dressed up to the nines, I'm guessing the usual work clothes won't cut it lol So will have to figure out what to wear for that...ugh

I found that I like the sweaters that have the zipper that goes to about mid chest and then would wear a turtle neck or a dress shirt and tie and a pair of nice jeans or my dress slacks and motorcycle boots.

for cas: it is Jeans and tennies and my ball cap and my hoodies

Its been so long since I've seen a real live butch I would not care if they were wearing a torn up t-shirt and a pair of winnie the pooh boxers!

A follow up on eBay.
I'm not doing real well there ... or elsewhere. Lol. What happened to the flannels? The regular wools? The stores and online places have the "super" 100s wool. I can't stand them. I'd worry that o was naked ... they are thin as paper!
I found some middle and heavy weight woolen trousers, but they are very pricey. I like plated, sit at the waist pants.
On eBay, I'm looking at Harris and other tweed jackets. After the first mistake of ordering my size, and finding that vintage runs smaller, I've measured all my parts, and checked with sellers about the measurements of their coats. It's a journey, I'll tell ya. Lol.

On the plus side, I purchased enough ties to open a shop!

I've gotten into sweater vests this year, have a number of them now. I really like the way they look with long sleeve shirts. I can wear a tie or not depending on the event, and with or without a jacket. They're really very versatile.

Best thing about living in the frozen tundra now: Being able to wear button downs and my ties. When I lived in the South, there were about five days a year that were cold enough for even long-sleeved button downs. Of course, the flip side is it being so cold you don't take your jacket off, so nobody sees it. LOL
