    Dressing up as a guy is kinda hard, the widely accepted options tend to have much less variety than women’s fashion. You pretty much have to get weird to make it a little fun, and that’s risky.

    I guess that actually makes it easy to dress up, it’s just depressingly boring.

      the acceptable shirts that come out of most clothing stores the last decade or two have been so godsdamned boring. i do most of my clothing shopping at thrift stores now and look for stuff that’s easily tailored because that’s the only place i’ll find interesting fabric. well, there and nordstrom off the rack. i saw a jacket there a decade ago that i should’ve bought that was too fucking expensive and i have regretted not buying it to this day. i should have spent that $700 i have had at least $700 of regret by now.

      edit: i don’t have a lot of regrets but this is one of them.

        One of the nicest jackets that I own was manufactured in the 1960s and has had quite the interesting life before I got it.

        It’s totally impractical since it has the shallowest pockets you’ve ever seen. It will absolutely not hold a phone.
