All you folks out there lurkin around trying to be so different in fashion and making sure everyone within ear shot hears how unconformed and hip you are. You guys put more time into your outfit than anyone. Leave the corduroy, scarves, and fucked up hats at the thrift store. Quit walking around like you’re on your way to a Zelda convention and put some lenses in those fuckin big dumb glasses you wear! —Halloween is over

i don’t care what people wear but this is funny. apologies to pbr and the admiral http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7vYrOSS9VEE/SIex…
“put some lenses in those …” yeah I find that weird too.
lolz PG – loves me my PBR. And you’ve met me – Hipster Poster Boy I is.
I wish they fucking sold PBR here. Not even the evil regime that is NSLC would be able to justify charging more than $15 for pabst, fuck I’ve seen cans that had $1 screened into the logo.
I never understood the glasses without lenses either. I have to wear glasses ( or contacts ) to be able to see well, but if I didn’t I wouldn’t think of ever wearing them for show. Just seems silly.
I got a connection, crosses the border from time to time. He hooks me up. >; )
I get the glasses without lenses thing. A friend described it as just another accessory. Some people don’t leave the house without a pair of sunglasses on, sunny or cloudy. Or just the same as someone doesn’t leave the house without putting on their makeup. Some people try a little harder with the way they look, this isn’t news. They’re not worse people for caring about different things.
I hate the 80’s big glasses style that is coming back. Seriously they look horrible. I was so psyched when the small squarish ones came into style because they actually look good on people and now I had a huge selection to choose from. The smaller squarish frames look so much better on everybody, even when the frames are thick they still look good. But now people are starting to wear these monstrosities again

that look shitty on everyone. And the next time I have to buy a pair that’s all I’ll have to pick from ugh.
Wearing lasses without lenses is like like wearing shoes without soles.

… d’oh! I don’t even …
we refer to people who wear glasses and don’t need corrective lenses as “posers”
Seriously, I’m borderline blind, and people who actually WANT to put bits of plastic on their face when they don’t have to absolutely baffle me. It’s like people wearing hearing aids as decorations.
“Lasses without lenses” Snoop? Sounds like 4 NASCAD grrrls formed a Feist cover band.
Your typos are poetically Rawkin’ today.
Buddy Holly glasses are back? Fargin A!!!
uh.. this post smacks of half-forgotten, repressed memories of burqas. Please don’t bring fashion police to this country. People are happier without it.
So that’s where all that Value Village crap goes. NSCAD…lol…
Ivon,
My buddy brings back a 12 pack from Montreal every time he comes home to visit and drinks it with me in exchange for a pickup from the airport.
Glasses without lenses are pretty stupid for everyday wear, but great for cosplay.
oh the pretentous parade has started, and i missed going. damnit, to hell, wanted to see all the wankers out in their sunday sallyann gear.
Mostly, I enjoy the fashion interpretation parade but some things I find a bit unnerving…
like the bloodless look (heavy white powder on skin) or the corset look (two rows of piercings down the back with a lace crisscrossed through the rings).
I was saving this for another day, but I guess today will do.
For you Kim 🙂

Thanks Ivan, I try.
When you say glasses without lenses…do you mean completely empty glasses – or without prescription lenses?…I know a person who doesn’t need glasses but wears them for fashion. And crazy enough it really works for them and makes them look smart.

Fashion should be a statement, not a question.
Realchick- a student I teach bass to asked my opinion on which frames to buy for her glasses: black or tortieshell. I said tortieshell because the black ones look like hipster faux-eyewear. She agreed with me, and said her friends said the same thing.
42 year old guy in touch with the young’ns!
Awesome!
Good for you Mr Wheelie!
PBR indeed!!
I think a lot of people think his in the back of their heads, just never say it.
Saweet little kitteh, Jenn. Yours? You may have noticed by now that there is a hard core group of animal lovers here. *narf*
what would you suggest people wear, OP?
sounds like you might be a bit jealous of people who are interested in style that extends beyond ugg boots and yoga pants.
We get it, sebastian, you applied to NSCAD and they turned you down for being gay.
