Seeing as we're all discussing how much clothes/shoes we do/don't have... let's take a step closer to a "fashion forum" by discuss not what we own, but who.
a) what designers do you wear?
b) what styles do you sport?
c) what's the style where you're from?
d) what's prevalent at your HBCU?
e) what isn't cool at your HBCU?
I'll start:
a) for jeans: Seven of All Mankind, Citizens of Humanity, Rock and Republic, Yanuk, etc.
for shirts: Banana Republic, Juicy Couture, Lacoste, Express, etc.
shoes: Nike Dunks, Vans, Enzo Angiolini, Chuck Taylors, Coach, etc.
b) my style is steadily maturing. Freshman year I used to rock Timbs and fitteds, sophomore year lots of Juicy tops and flats, this year I'm going to be a bit more sophisticated since I'm approaching (and will be once school starts) 20
c) New York guys are all into white tees, Enyce/Evisu/RocaWear jeans, and Timbs. Some are a bit more exclusive with Evisu jeans and Bape sneakers. Most girls wear Guess/Gap/Express and the more exclusive girls wear Sevens, Citizens, etc. and heels or Prada shoes
d) at Howard some students don't give a damn about fashion so they wear whatever. Some girls will wear any no-namebrand outfit as long as it hoochie-fied enough, other girls will spend thousand on their wardrobes with Prada, Gucci, Chanel, etc. Some guys will wear suits and wingtips everyday, some will wear white tees and jordans, some will wear Bapes and Seven jeans.
e) some students make fun of other students for shopping on Georgia Ave... but those girls still get attention in their barely-there outfits. Nike boots are like a running joke around campus... I still don't know what they are...
