How do you dress?

Thread topic appropriated (with permission) from lafemmefatale, in the Ladies' Lounge, with the lead pipe:

How do you dress? Prep, hipster, casual, Abercrombie, neo-goth-industrial-metal-hardcore?

On any given day you're most likely to see me in a black shirt, blue jeans, and a Celtic necklace given to me by my woman.

EDIT: Link to original thread added for a more diverse set of responses. Remember not to post in the LL, men, or the mods will rip the flesh from your bones.

A button up shirt with a small tee under it for those hot days. Along with a pair for blue/black baggy jeans and my white/black Chuck T's.

EDIT: Like the one n my avatar.

Semi-casual, usually. Shirt with collar, three buttons, cargo pants, and usually brown leather shoes. Nothing special.

Pretty much casual for me. I usually wear a t-shirt and jeans. Sometimes i'll wear a button up shirt and some khakis though.

You'll usually find me in jeans and a t-shirt. Once in a while I'll throw some preppy dress into the mix.

I'd like to be better dressed, but I'm afraid I just can't afford it.

I don't have a particular style. I dress all kinds a ways. Just whatever looks good. Some days I'll dress sporty, other days hip-hop ish, other days kinda casual or prepish, I've even dressed a little skater before I can pretty much pull off anything. One person told me I dress very retro. I just think I dress good. Also I fancy jackets very much...which is funny cause I live in Texas and you don't get to use jackets very often here.

Asta!!

The most common among a numer of variations:

Going out - unbranded tailored white shirt, black jeans, nice elastic sided black leather boots and a heavy black leather jacket.

At home trashy wear: Faded grey Planet Hollywood:Dallas/Heineken tshirt with holes in it I got free with a case of beer. Faded green Khaki shorts.

If I have to wear my suit, I will always try to wear nice silk ties.

I love dressing crazily one day, dying my hair platinum blonde the next . . .

Somedays I dress like a camp counsellor, same days I dress like a diva. It depends on my mood.

I don't dress like any of that.
I don't have a specific category that I fit in. I wear whatever I'm comfortable in.

I don't really have a particular dress style. It varies depending on my mood and the working condition of the washing machine. One thing I do always wear are sneakers, I don't like formal shoes.

i used to dress in button down shirts, slacks, and dress shoes. All the time, since High School, because I never knew when business was going to come up.

I'm most comfortable in that attire, but alas, working where I work now... that doesn't work, so I wear khakis/jeans and a plain pocket t.

when casual, i like to don either a Tool t-shirt, or a t devoted to my beloved Gamecocks.

when i've got to look decent, i'll wear some blue jeans and a polo.

when i've got to look good, it's khakis or grey pants with a nice blue button down.

It all depends on the mood...

If I had a choice I would live in a climate that allowed me to wear shorts and a sweater all year round... Unfortunately Toronto doesn't allow this...

My office is very casual but as I am in a position of relative authority I tend to be office casual...

I only wear a suit if I have to... or if I'm trying to seduce my wife.

Same here. I usually wear a T-shirt and jeans because that's what I'm most comfortable in.

normal--summer: shorts, and tank top, sandals. if real hot
forget the tank top and sandals.

normal winter: switch to shorts and T-shirt, tennis shoes.
nasty winter: switch to jeans and T-shirt.

formal church: shoes, socks under shorts, slacks and casual
shirt.
funerals: drag out that blue suit and white shirt, and
same old tie.

I try to dress well and be my best when I head out, at home I'm a lot more casual.

My usual clothing consists of a short sleeved dress-like shirt worn over a t-shirt, some nice dress-like pants. I wear bright colours, and sometimes add a black element like black pants or black shirt. And I guess the reason for all of that is because I like to look and feel like my best when I'm with other people, and most of the time, at least to me, it pays off.

Cuffed dark blue jeans, white t-shirt, cocktail/Hawaiian button up shirt, black steel-toed boots, American flag belt buckel, studded belt, chain wallet, and a shop rag hangin' outta my back pocket.

Every once in while I throw on shorts, a skateboard t-shirt, and skate shoes. But that's for sports and casual purpose.

Sadly, I've worn "business casual" so much now, that I feel most comfortable in that. Suits at work - sometimes with tie or not, depending on how my day looks. Dress pants, golf shirt or mock neck, sport coat outside the office. About the only time you won't see me dressed like that is bedtime, and at the gym.

I dress in whatever I feel like at the time.

Some days that's jeans and a T-shirt, some days it's a casual button-down shirt with rolled up sleeves and khakis, some days I like dressing nicely with black pants and a dress shirt (of course, I can only do that when appropriate :-p), some days it's jeans and a light sweater (the kind you can get away with wearing even if it's in the 70s), some days it's jeans and a heavy sweater (in the winter), some days it's jeans and a hooded sweatshirt.....

I think I'll stop now - you get the idea
