[feedback] hello, is this mic on, hello

yay yayOG 2004 ·

i havent gotten new threads in like 3-5 years, i mean i got a shirt here and there, but it wasn't until yesterday that i was wearing pants ripped in the knees and a shirt that had turned from cotten into a rubber mat material

thank you wifey for my new clothes

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 ·

hahaha i just saw this, so cute. My baby looks so good in jeans. Hahaha

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

So I used to HATE broaches (correct my spelling if it's wrong) Cuz old ladies would wear HUGE obnoxious ones, just ugly. And teachers would where those corny apple ones or "#1 teacher" pins. But now they're back in. I bought a pretty one the other day. They just can't be too big or gaudy.

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

hi buddy! (its brooches)

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

see, that doesn't look right to me lol

Hi hun! ;)

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

i know. it looks totally wrong. english is mad confusing.

iwz iwz ·

they're both correct. and both pronunciations are also correct. odd, eh?

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

very odd! my parents like to tell this story about a co we had who was from england and he used to correct his wifes pronounciation of everything using a dictionary he brought with him from england.

also, i was wondering about gaza again since it was in the watchtower lesson this week. the official pronouciation is ga'-za (long a) but all the news programs say ga-za (short a). i wonder why?

iwz iwz ·

yeah, I say Gaza, but a bunch of people were saying Gayza. Haha, they're so gay.

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

what does the wt-lib say?

iwz iwz ·

*gasp*

Gay-za

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Gayzilla

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

ga'-za (long a) it is then. even if non-witnesses look at you funny bc every news report says ga-za (short a).

iwz iwz ·

welll... there's the modern pronunciation, and the biblical pronunciation. i think you should use the right one as appropriate.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

I didn't even realize that on Sunday...pronunciation don't matter when you're fingerspelling in sign!

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

i thought this was only for clothing. Isn't this your clothing thread?

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

cant accessories by clothing? they are clothing ornaments. anyway, what are you? the thread nazi?

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

Yes it is...very astute. I'm gonna buy you a guitar brooch.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

i luv brooches! they were SO big in the 80's. good thing i kept some of the ones i've owned. they're so fun!

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

Fishnets? Any takers?

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

ooo bad girl! def try the nude. they are more subtle. i like the brand "hue". last year, i stocked up at blomingdales-2/$17. they are still going strong. no snags.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004 ·

OH YEAH! Fishnets are my trademark...all variety. Most recently pinstripped fishnets to go with these BAD faux vintage shoes.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

superhero superheroOG 2004 ·

rocksupastarFounder ·

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002 ·

our dress code was business ..

i changed that all around.. now everyone wears jeans pre-friday.

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

dude do you even own a pair of jeans? I don't remember seeing you in anything but khakis...

superhero superheroOG 2004 ·

i own one pair, which i believe to be plenty.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah Dan sure has his own sense of style. lol

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Dan is a hip-hopper.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

What styles are you rockin' lately or would like to?
-my armani jeans...i'm so very excited about them. i look like i have a butt when i wear them! but in general, anything preppy or sporty...stuff you'd find in abercrombie, gap, jcrew, hollister, express. Favorite Outfit ever: Button Down shirt with tank under and jeans, and brown shoes...there ya have it...the essential courtney

What's in your closet?
button down shirts, polos, jeans and jeans and jeans, t-shirts, and lots of sweaters...and of course my unlimited sweat collection for school, bumming around the house, and any other time i feel like being a bum

What article of clothing could you NOT do without?
SWEATPANTS! Comfort is great...and i'm always cold.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

whoa, you REALLY ARE from L.I. sheesh!

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

haha, hey! wait a second...i don't care

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

i'm similar to rocksoup. i wear jeans or khakis, all the time. nothing else strikes me for bottoms. tops? lots of band tees and stripy or plaid button downs. i just bought a few half zip sweaters, mega comfy. i'm so boring.

right now, i'm still wearing my work stuff--a grey UPS sweat shirt and heavy black and blue b-ball pants with my doc martins. thats hot, thats hot!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

additionally--how could i leave out my beloved OP style polos with horizontal stripe across the chest! official FU MANCHU wear!

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

aren't UPS colors brown?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Drivers only.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

really?? i thought everyone wore brown. Crazy. thats cool though. i feel SO sorry for the brown guys who have to wear black shoes AND black socks with their brown uniforms.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Only workers publically representing the company wear brown. People in the plants and warehouses where whatever they want. The only requirements are steal tip boots and NO baggy clothing because theres a million unpleasant places and things that can catch your clothes and tear them off or drag you up, down or across the place.

R
rocksupastarFounder ·

maybe only in CRAZY socal!

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 ·

can i get some UPS clothes? haha I was bout to say "off of you" but that might have been taken the wrong way. I mean can you get some UPS clothes for me? I want them. I LOVE UPS

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

I have a vest that I got when I was a drivers-helper last year, but she's a-mine.

Scanners and routers [me] can't get uniforms, I don't think. I'll check though.

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 ·

is there a place you can BUY ups clothing hahaha.... oh man i want it. I should really get a job there for a lil bit just to get some clothes. I almost bought a UPS hat when i went down to NC last month but it was a Nascar UPS hat. i duno not the same

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

at least tell us what you're wearing..fool :P

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

heehee....you're so funny!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

I don't have a style because I am in love with so many different skirts. However, I really love mini-skirts right now even though I don't love wearing them very often.

I cannot live without my black turtle neck sweater. If I could wear it every day I would because its nice and warm and it makes me look very thin.

I'm wearing my new black jeans from gap right now (they're great cause I can wear them to school and be comfortable and yet they're appropriate attire for work!) and some old shirt that has wine colored stripes on it (its grey) which is good cause wine has always looked good on me. I plan on putting my docs on later to go out because wearing heals to walk around school is a pain.

Places I adore shopping at: H&M, Gap, Century 21 (must go there sooon), Arden B always has the best stuff that I would love to wear but I never buy it cause its expensive AND I wouldn't be comfortable in it even though I'd be pretty.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

so monday i bought this gorgeos green dress at h&m for the wedding and then i went in arden b. and they had the perfect color to match the dress in elbow high gloves. the gloves were 2X the amount the dress cost me. isn't that insane?

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

Oh hunny...did you buy them??

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

of course not. i wanted to really bad. but that was just too much money./

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

oh yeah that is insane. its all about the name on the tag.

there's this trendy store on Melrose i went into a few weeks ago and i saw the cutest tank. there was nothing too special about it but the fit and it was $320. Uh i'm all about style but $320? NO STINKEN WAY. I don't even like paying $20 for tanks.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Ooo did H&M have other cute dresses? I really just want a black dress cause I don't own one and they are so versatile but I do love dresses.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

they had a bunch of really cute black dresses in a bunch of styles. i didn't get one cuz i have a black one but they did have pretty stuff. so annoying cuz all the manequins had these awesome stockings on but they were'nt seeling the stockings.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

mannequins are hotter than the female sales associates

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

definitely NOT. mannequins are creepy nowadays. I saw some purple ones at j.c.penney's the other day.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

but they have erect nipples

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

and the female sales associates dont? have you checked?

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

i dont think so it's usually ridiculously hot in stores bc they want you to want to get out of your clothes and try on other ones

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

once in a while they do.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

a lot of times i'll go somewhere and people won't recognize me if they haven't seen me for a few months bc i don't have one style. yesterday i wore a green shirt, over that a red hooded sweater, brown cord skirt, funky patterned brown tights, and brown madden loafers. today completely diff-leopard print shirt, denim skirt, threw a knee-length black jacket over to dress it up, and my sexy sexy boots. i can't stand wearing the same thing over and over again. i don't like jeans at all. i still haven't brought myself to buy pointy (pizza toe) shoes.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

I tried a pair of those on yesterday but it just doesn't feel natural lol I couldn't do it. Plus I have this fear of looking like a penguin. My style usually changes at the 6 month mark of a year. Right now I'm going for the polished sophisticate at work and meetings..lots of lace trim tops! They're SO hot.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

don't worry about pointy toe. they're out this season the cute round toe or square is.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

my shoes usually fall somewhere in between the two

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

how 'bout just cons..I almost bought a pair of purple ones yesterday.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

i have black ones with a pink stripe up the back =)

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

I saw them yest too! I don't know what's holding me back..

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

i want the ones that fold down. i think they have like green plaid ones. so cute!

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

What styles are you rockin' lately or would like to?
i generally dress classic girly fem. my fav places to shop are ann taylor, limited, h&m, old navy & target.

What's in your closet?
lots of skirts. im really comfortable in them.

What article of clothing could you NOT do without?
my black wrap sweater. its like wearing a bathrobe out of the house, but fashionably.

What are you wearing RIGHT NOW?
a black sparkly cardigan over an aqua tank (matching twinsets are so yesterday) black cotton trousers and black round toe pumps

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

I love h&m and just bought a pair of indigo jeans this weekend at old navy. I'm wearing round toe pumps today too! They're way adorable, I don't know how I would describe them to you tho..

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

nice!! round toe is totally in!!!

i wish we had H&M here. i can't even get onto their website to order anything.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Good..I hate pointy toe, it's so awkward looking.

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

i love pointy or square toe. round toe make my feet look so small. but round toe is in...and these shoes are so cute, so im dealing with it.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

I've been rockin' the buddy holly girl thing. Boot cut jeans, black tank under one of my cardigans, a pair of 50s black frames, and mary jane docs. I LOVE CARDIGANS! Couldn't do without 'em. In fact I'm wearing a deep turquoise one right now.

specialk specialkOG 2003 ·

I absolutely CANNOT live without my jeans. Levi, low-rise stretch. LOVE them! I pretty much live in jeans.

Also, my super comfy Old Navy sweats. They rock for sleeping in, or for crummy days when I have to go out, but don't feel like getting all dolled up.

My style is pretty much designed for my comfort...I have some articles of what I call "high-maintenance clothing." Clothes that I only wear every now and then, because something about them annoys me, even though they are cute. I have a short that is ADORABLE, but has tons of dangling beads on it, so it makes noise...not fun for all the time.
The rest of my stuff is pretty casual...not your typical "mom clothes" hahahaha.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

i LUV clothes! i'm a total shop-o-holic! I try to have a touch of everything in my collection because you never know where you are going or waht you are doing.

My most favorite possession (right now) is the faux leopard print coat my sister bought for me!

I cannot live without my jeans!! So versatile!

and right now i am sportin a Black T that has Element Skateboards written across the chest, beigy-y billabong capris with black wedge sandals.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

verrrry cute.. ;)

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

thank you! =)
