There's this one store I always used to LOVE to go to, because they always had these amazing men's shirts. I'd always keep it a secret when my friends asked about where I got it from. I don't know, I always liked the styles on men's shirts than some of the women's sometimes.

I'm generally a S/M, so it's pretty much the same-ish in men's.

When it comes down to pants, I'll get my jeans or pants anywhere, as long as they fit properly and they are comfortable.

Its rediculously difficult for me to find jeans that fit me right. -__-;; Drives me bonkers.

And I tend to wear S or M. More often a M, but it honestly depends on the manufacturer, because some M's fit okay, and some are huge on me. And some smalls are rediculously small, or fit just fine. I dunno, it can get confusing, though.

And I only try on clothes that i'm thinking about buying. I just do not like buying things without trying them on first, because I never know how they'll fit, or how they'll look on me. Sure, the mannequins can pull anything off, but that doesn't mean it'll look good on me. lol So, I like to try them on just to be safe. Not going to buy it if I dont like it.

Jeans are such a pain I gave up on them and started using leggings instead. Srsly, like, the only jeans where my butt would fit right were colombian jeans. Ecuadorian jeans are for women with absolutely no butt, so they just reach halfway up. Colombians, on the other hand... are for colombian women's... :roll:

And here a women's L is a men's S :gonk: And these days women clothes are either too much tight or shows too much boob, and men's clothing is awesome, like, very cool'looking and all but because they're in the men's section my mom refuses to buy things for me from there, so I... buy no tops :cry:

Im an awesome shopper. I find out what i want before i go. I get there, get what i want, and go again. No dicking about looking at crap, just there and gone and the whole ordeal is over. Clothes though, ill walk around and look at all the stuff quickly til i see something looks like the style im after, then ill get the right size and go. I dont care whether other people like the stuff i wear, im not wearing the clothes for their appreciation, im wearing them for my own comfort and enjoyment. If i found a pink tutu(sp?) to be what i felt like, id wear one. Though, hell has a better chance of freezing over before that will happen! :P

Aww. I think you'd look lovely in a pink tutu. :P

I think you need to go give yourself a swirlie Mon! Thats a horrible thing to say! LMAO!

brb getting a chocolate vanilla swirlie ice cream.

:P

Hahahaha! Touche!

Aw, thank you. And yes, she was delighted with her pet leaf. When she reaised she lost it I walked back with her to see if we could see it, but the wind must have blown it away. It was cute while it lasted xD



That's quite an old picture, but I love that little bear suit she's wearing.

Because it is past 1am in the morning and I am bored of writing a paper due in a couple of hours, I shall post random pics from my external hard drive. I feel like sharing as well, strangely enough. xDD;;


Taken at a resort late December. Had to crop out my cousins and friends from the pictures because a) the piccies are big, and b) in case they came after me with pitchforks and death glares. >3>;; Can't anger them anymore after beating all their asses in Monopoly since we began to play together this year. xDD;;;;


Well, got lazy to crop again. Meet some of my (manymany) cousins? xDD;; I'm the third one from the left, second to the right. >3>;; Taken during Christmas Eve.



Btw, on the shirt/dress size issue, I find it VERY hard to shop. D: </3 Especially in American/European retail brands. I'm too petite! ;O; Mango and Zara for example have me as XXS or XXXS (What kind of size is that?! D8 kid-sized?), which I didn't know existed till... well, when I fitted a dress from them early this year. </3 I wanna be normal!

Jeans are a problem too. </3 Su and I have the same problem (which we've mulled over countless times in the past). ^^;;

I hate jean shopping. D: I'm very short and have very wide hips, so my jeans are almost always too long. Besides that, I used to be a 0, and it's painful for me to see the size gradually go up. Time to get a gym membership! I'm so obsessive about my body, skin, and hair. I don't think I've ever felt entirely confident in any of those except hair, though. Sad panda.

I'm looking at old, silly pictures and missing my longer hair. It was so much easier for me to deal with and I wasn't so worried about my acne, which of course is getting worse now that my entire face is exposed. ):



We're pantalones salesmen.


And also fuzzy sock salesmen.

:lol: I'm fat compared to you guys. Soooo tiny! :illgetu:

Oh well, I like how I look, kindof. xD :heart:

----------

Btw, as for your acne, it's just not used to the exposure. give it a few weeks and it'll settle out of shock.
Though, now that you have bangs (if you didn't have them before) you need to make sure your forehead isn't greasy because of them. When I first started sporting bangs, my face got a little more acne-covered for a bit, but then it settle out as I learned to stop fucking with them. :lol:

Everyone is soooo pretty :D:D
*hugs thread*

My precious bangs actually got cut off, which is why my face is exposed, haha. I'm taking hair and nail vitamins which supposedly makes your hair grow at ridiculous speeds, so hopefully that's the case.

Yeah I don't need to take those vitamins for my hair to grow like crazy. :illgetu:

I want my acne to go away foreverrrrr~ If it does in the next 4 days, I'd join a religion ;A;

lol Yeah, Ry and I have discussed our pants issues before. xP;; So very frustrating.
I'm always so happy when I can find the right pair of jeans. :drool: I'm very picky with how they fit and feel. It drives me bonkers how almost all the jeans I try on just bulge at the back. Its so hard to get ones that fit right on the waist, but I am always so happy when I can find some. Also depends on the fabric. I dont like the thin jean fabric too much, usually. Has an odd look to it that I feel looks weird.

@ Ry - lol You just have a petite frame. Most American/European women seem to have bigger builds, I think. It really entirely depends on the person, though, I suppose. Different genes and what not. Also depends on the designer of the clothes. Some companies just have an extremely skewed concept of sizes. O_o;;

And nice pictures. ^^

@ Kah - Yessss! D: Me too! I get so self conscious from acne. ><;; I've been stressing out really bad lately, so I've been getting random break-outs here and there. And my forehead seems to usually get it the worst (I dont know why), so I'll get paranoid about it and wear my hat so that people can't see, and then my hat just irritates it more. And my chest breaks-out, too. :/ I use proactive, but not often enough, I guess. Sometimes it feels like the more I use it, the worst it gets. Might be because its bringing stuff to the surface and I dont stay consistent enough for it to go through with its phases and to then get rid of it, but I dunno. Very bothersome, either way. I think i'd have a lot more confidence if I didn't have any acne.

@ Jovial - My pant size hasn't really changed in so long, but there are some clothes that dont fit anymore, so it seems like i'm growing and shrinking a little on and off as I work out more or less. But i've been a size 5 for a very long time, and i'm comfortable with that size. If I went higher, then i'd be rather upset with myself and work out a ton. But I can't see myself ever fitting into anything smaller, because I can't get them over my butt. lol

Oooh. How much for the Mickey Mouse pants, salesman?

I'm lucky, I don't usually break out except right around my period. :sweat:

It's even more worrying because this Friday (thus "the next four days" petition...) is my graduation. These pictures shall lay in the portrait wall/closet for like, until I marry or something! :gonk:

And I also have acne around my breasts... and my back. And not the whole back, juuuuust the part that you can see when wearing a dress. Anything under the fabric is acne-free, but the people there won't know that if the only tihng they can see is an acne infested back filled with random acne scars, you know? :cry:

Sounds like hormone issues, Kah :( You have my sympathies because I have the same problem, being on the pill has got my skin to behave itself a bit, but I often have to rethink what I'd intend to wear because my neckline will expose spotty skin : / It sucks because I'm quite curvy and high necklines are not flattering on me at all, they give me a continental shelf effect at the front and make my shoulders look really wide. But I've had to buy stuff that makes me look like a fridge for when my skin gives me no other option.

What I do a lot of the time is wear a strappy or short sleeve top under my top with the lower neckline, and I'll pull it up at the front and down at the back until it covers the nasty skin, then I'll safety pin it to my bra straps to get it to stay put >_>

I have a little bit of body acne, but again, not enough to even be a bid deal. :(
Sorry you go thought that, Kah.

@ monstahh - I am just getting off mine, so thats probably also contributing its fair share right now. lol

But my cheeks are super soft! *rubs cheeks* o 3o

@ Kah - Dont you hate that?! Its just not fair. lol Stupid acne and ruining important stuff.

I get it on my upper-back, too! Really badly, and I can't do anything that'll stop it. But its mainly caused by my back being out. Something weird when your vertebrae are out of place causes you to break out near there. My chiropractor would tell me about it all the time. And the top of my back is constantly out, so that causes that usually.

@ Jelly - Yeah, I had to do something like that today. My chest is broke out just in two spots that stand out, but the dress I had on today is just below them, and I couldn't find a way to cover them up. So, instead I just wore a scarf all day. lol

You only need one spot in the wrong place to totally f up your day though. People with nice skin are so lucky :( I talked to the doc about it because like I said to him, I'm a little bit old for teenage skin, and what's going to happen when I stop taking the pill? I can't stay on that for the rest of my life, but if I stop taking it, after 3 or 4 weeks my skin is appalling, particularly on my chin and in my nose creases, as well as my chest. It stays like that too, it's not just for a few weeks will my body finds it's natural equilibrium again.

I stopped taking the pill for a year, and if I was lucky I have one day out of each month when I had no spots on my face, in the end I just gave up and started taking it again, and within 2 weeks my skin on my face was ok again.

Doc told me it might sort itself out when I hit menopause :/ gee, thanks! I'll stop getting spots when I start growing a beard instead then ._.

I agree. :( I envy people that have such perfect skin. Even more so when they say they dont even do anything special to make it that way. I try stuff for mine, but i'm so forgetful that I never keep up with it. :/ Not to mention so lazy. I dont usually go to bed until i'm nearly passed out, so washing my face doesn't seem appealing. Also, it usually wakes me up a bit, which I dont want by that point.

Yeah, that doesn't sound like a good thing at all. I worry that once I get older that'll stick with me, too. :/ I was hoping it'd pass, since so many people's seems to go away as they get a bit older, but my parents both still get them rather often, so it doesn't seem promising. They dont get them bad, really, but still get them.

Its so weird how that happens, huh? I would probably take he pill, too, if I were you. lol I dont have any reason to take it now (and i'm sure that lazy/forgetfulness wouldn't do too well with it), but it'd probably be good for me in that I get terrible cramps and my periods are usually long and exhausting.

lol What a lovely thing. Rediculous how our bodies protest. I hope that you can find something else that'll help control it. Sounds like its quite the bugger to get rid of.

Now you made me worry, what if that is genetical? My mom gets these huge whiteheads on her chin whenever there's something to worry about (an ill relative, a homework deadline, a fight) and I just got an humongous, painful pimple right under my right nostril :gonk: And three little zits on my right ear, but do they look horridly noticeable! :shock:
