[OC] an outfit I really like :) : streetwear

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 14 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

All the clothes are either thrifted or something that was given to me as a gift. The watch is a Casio f91w with a metal bracelet

Shoes are from H&M but I'm pretty sure they don't sell these exact ones anymore as I found them ages ago at a thrift store. They're a pretty common style though

I'm finally getting around to trying to post some oc since the mod has been pulling the weight of a collapsed star trying to keep the community going 😅

Edit: shoes are from H&M, not forever 21

Thank you 😭

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Lol, you're so very welcome, I'm glad this community exists for me to post in. I'm largely out of my depression hole and a lot more caught up on chores so hopefully I can post periodically now :)

It took some fanagling to get a camera setup since I don't have a floor length mirror but I made it work!

I think an undershirt or a long-sleeved shirt under they top would add to this outfit, while also resolving the nips.

(Not a fashion expert, just a singular opinion, feel free to dismiss)

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I wouldn't have considered that, I might have to try it and see what I think! (Assuming I can find a suitable long sleeve, I don't think I have many)

Honestly I like having an excuse to show some skin as a vaguely more masc presenting person. The nips don't really bother me too much, but I always kinda worky about making folks uncomfortable 😅

Thanks for sharing your thoughts ☺️

I appreciate your honesty :D I enjoy seeing people presenting their true self.

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

I appreciate the positivity! ☺️❤️

You look great! Crushing it.

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Thank you!!

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Looking good. Had no idea we had a streetwear page here now

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Thank you! And we do, though its mostly been the mod posting inspo and discussion to keep things moving. I'm hoping I can post fit pics periodically now that I'm kinda out of my winter depression hole and a little more caught up on life 😅

Don't think about elephants

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Don't think about elephants?

[–] SwingingTheLamp@midwest.social 8 points 8 months ago (2 children)

There's a famous demonstration of how the mind works that instructs: "Don't picture a pink elephant!" The hitch is, what's the first thing your brain has to do in order to follow directions? Picture a pink elephant!

I think the other commenter's point is that if you ask people to ignore something, that guarantees that we will notice/focus on it.

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Ahhh, okay thank you, I think somewhere along the way I've heard that before, but my brain absolutely did not make the connection lol.

I'm not really bothered by people noticing/paying attention to it, I just worry about making folks uncomfortable. Fortunately no one seems to care

Y'all! Those trousers are cool!

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Thanks! I friggen love these pants, I end up wearing them a disproportionate amount of the time any time I put together an outfit 😅

[–] owen@lemmy.ca 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Very good. We need bigger boots tho

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

I actually have some massively oversized boots I could try but didn't consider them for the outfit, I'll have to give them a try and see if I like them better

[–] noxy@yiffit.net 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

cool watch too!!

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Thanks!! I don't wear it as often anymore, when the original strap broke I got an a700 I'm in love with, but after much searching I found a metal bracelet for it and I still love it dearly ☺️ its been pretty abused so it also makes a great beater 😅

[–] LordPassionFruit@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's a great outfit!

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Thanks! ☺️

They're from H&M though I don't think they sell these exact ones anymore since they're really old now, but if you're looking for a style name they're Chelsea boots, and I'd say they have a rounded toe, chunky tread, and slightly raised heel :) if you search Chelsea boot you'll find all sorts of options!

[–] thesporkeffect@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Thank you, I saw you mentioned the boots in the other comment just after I posted

[–] Djont@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Nice outfit. Love that style of boots, recently got my own pair

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Thanks ☺️ and me too, they're super versatile and I enjoy that I can make them work with more fem or more masc outfits. Someday I'll have to get some nicer quality ones
