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) 20c) 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 shoesd) 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...
I wear whatever is in my closet. I don't care bout designers. Why am I paying extra for somebody name? If I wrote my name on a T, would u buy it for 35- 50 dollars?
I'm not big on name brand, maybe cause I can't really afford it anyway, but whatever looks cute and is cheap in price. I love to be color coordinated as well.
^^^ Megan I love how u change up your avatar everyday...lol...u keep up with the FINEST black men in entertainment...lol...i wanna see Morris, Mekhi, and Omar up there soon. :grin:

Pretty Much. If I do buy some name brand clothing, it's mostly coming from Burlingtons or TJMaxx. Some LEI's or Mudd Jeans suit me just fine. As for shoes, I'll rock some heels depending on the setting and my outift, New Balances, Forces, and I have a pair of K-Swiss that I wear sometimes. I also feeling the stylish/ girly type Kangaroo, Asics, and Puma shoes.

Yeah, girl I thought I would celebrate some beautiful Black men. I might put Mekhi, Morris, or Omar up there but they really don't do anything for me.

b) I sport anything I like. I like ghetto stuff sometimes and those white teen stores sometimes like Aeropostale, Abercrombie, American Eagle.....
I would wear a afro wit some shades wit da glasses out wit a Malcom X shirt. Wait....that sounds kinda fly. I like to be different though. I'll wear a freaking sombrero if I wanted to.
c) Well I'm from da A and da style where I be at is short anything and a nice grill.
d) It seem like every girl at Albany wears the SAME thang. They all wear those slipper looking shoes (not the chinese ones anymore) wit jean outfits tighter than Beyonce's weave and a shiny **** girly shirt. Boys where Tees mostly.
e) I really don't know what isnt cool at my school cuz I dont hang with people that only sticks to one style. If you got it on then thats cool wit you....sheit its cool wit me too as long as I stay fly.
