    I am an adult and I understand that that whole “look” now was engineered right under our noses by LVMH. I say this as someone who used to obsessively check KanyeToThe, Superfuture, rawrdenim. I was effay and I battled in those r/streetwear WDYWT? Threads to get enough karma to make my own posts

        Here’s one that I don’t think I ever shared anywhere. Only posting this because of how bad dated it is, probably 11 years ago. I was a broke, closetted, landlocked teen trying to impress internet strangers with a pizza-flipper wage.

        TBH, I’m worried to post much more out of fear that a reverse image search will lead to an old forum account from the days that I overshared everything and I don’t necessarily want that tied back here.

            Good, but chasing the Gosha and Yeezy/FoG (not FOG, that shit came later and I remember when it was a Pacsun collab) looks way too hard.

            I like to think I do a more natural-to-me look nowadays.

            The first two’s shirt and pants ensemble came from Salvation Army literally three days ago.

            Pic 3 features Brooks Brothers Eliott pants, I love these things and have a few different colors.

            #4 is with the Tarvas x BlackbirdSpyplane Moss Wanderers shoes. BBSP and their little “universe” of outlets and writers is pretty much my only source of modern style these days and I proseletyze others to do the same whenever I get the chance

            My decade old Goodwill black leather belt appears in all three outfits and is on my personal 7 days a week
