MEN! How "metrosexual" are you
Edited on Sat Jan-15-05 01:02 AM by HEyHEY
I must admit... sportcoats, suits, and such are my wardrobe. As well, I shave with a brush and recently began Loofah use. I DO wear cologone and know too much about food,booze and music that isn't mainstream.

You?

8. jeans, sneaks, t-shirts and ball caps..
hardly attributes one would associate with metrosexuality. So, no. Not that there's anything wrong with it.

10. heck if I know
Edited on Sat Jan-15-05 01:18 AM by Kenneth ken
that's one of those culturally chic terms, and since I'm happily culturally unaware, I don't know what it means. :shrug:

post a pic - that's how I learn about all the celebs-of-the-week, maybe it will work for phrase-of-the-month too. :7

12. brace yourself
I wear the same clothes for days on end without showering. I seriously don't know where my razor is, so I couldn't tell you the last time I shaved. When I do shave, I use aftershave. Aqua-velva, it comes in a big jug and makes me less red. As result of these qualities, it is practical, and used. I do use deodorant.

The wardrobe? I just bought 2 pairs of pants from JC Penny's for about 15 bucks. Those will have to last until I feel like shopping again. The last time I went clothes shopping before then was first semester sophomore year, a little over a year ago. I wear a leather jacket, or various Adidas jackets my mother bought for me. None of my clothing fits. Everything is 2 sizes too large, since I've lost 40 lbs since July. My underwear, which I change regularly is made out of cotton, and doesn't ride in the ass. However, it does fall down as it is way to big.

I have a yellow belt that has cone spikes on it, with a four leaf clover belt buckle. It's probably my most expensive part of my wardrobe, as I think I ended up paying 60 dollars for the belt, buckle and shipping from two different stores.

I don't wear denim, so the stains on my khakis are present and accounted for. They usually come from sources like hot sauce or ranch dressing, which end up on there after a fierce night of eating.

The t-Shirts I wear, and I only wear t-shirts, come from various assorted concerts I've attended. Ranging from the Rolling Stones, to the Ramones, to the Black Dahlia Murder, to Remembering Never. They're all black, except for my white GWAR shirt, that is many many colors.

My shoes are either a beat to hell pair of Vans that are falling apart, my Doc Martiens shoes, black and white (real snazzy like), or a pair of Chuck T's. The Chucks, which have been to hell and back, are falling apart and covered in bleach stains. They were made in America, and have lasted me much longer than any pair I've owned since Converse was sold to Nike and production moved overseas. You're damn right they don't make 'em like they used to.

Oh yeah, and I wear glasses.

Giorgio Armani designer Italian eyewear, thick, black, expensive. My sunglasses? Same, prescription. So maybe I am a bit of a metrosexual, at least when it comes to glasses. :-)
