This is both accurate and way off simultaneously
There's definitely a fashion sense being gone for here that isn't there for me, but that is oddly close to how I would have dressed in high school from the waste down. Black Chucks lasted me throughout high school, but I'd never dream of wearing
clean Chucks. That shit needs battle scars, holes, and pen marks everywhere. Those pants are plaid and similar to a pair I had in high school, but not a pattern I like (ideally I want my pants to look like a 1970s Woolworth's couch, preferably heavy in brown and/or green). I don't know what that shirt is, but white is an instant no for me, as is anything three sizes too large and tucking anything in.
My fashion sense is a hodgepodge thanks to my intolerance of warmth. Ideally I'd have nothing but tweed and flannel, but...um...I'd need to live in the Arctic Circle to wear any of that for more than an hour.
2 parts lumberjack
2 parts elderly Irish man
2 parts contemporary outdoorsman (the recognizable labels in my wardrobe is names like Arc'teryx and Patagonia)
1 part Bavarian stereotype
+ a bunch of graphic tees because anything heavier would kill me in temperatures above ~70°F/20°C
After 3/4 of a year inside I just look like an even harrier Will Forte from the
Last Man on Earth pilot.
I'll be honest...one of my favorite things about traveling is being able to wear clothes I actually like
Stupid f***ing California, nobody wants me to take layers
off.
