My motto: IF you look better in looser clothing, then to heck with the style. I go for comfort, not style.
I think they look fine.

Some of my clothes are baggy, some have bog padded shoulder. I do not know what time they are from, maybe the 90s, or 80, maybe? My sister was taking about pitching old things and said. " why do you not throw out some of those old clothes". I said, they are not hurting anything.

Chunky heels are big, here. Flannel, too. I haven't seen overalls, other than the Oshkosh B'gosh I put my 6-month old in. I haven't seen chokers, either, but when I do, I'll wear 'em.

I dressed like this, minus the dreadlocks.

The guys I dated dressed like this. I wish they would go back to that instead of the skinny jeans they insist on wearing nowadays.

As a man, I'm glad the long and baggy look that the 90s gave us has run its course. By the mid-90s, it seemed that all clothing for men was long and baggy and we had no other choices, unless you didn't mind the negative social consequences. Nothing against baggy, but it's nice to have a wider variety.

Haha. My parents wouldn't let me get TOO baggy with my jeans when I was younger. There were some ravers at school who would wear some ridiculous sized pants.

It's funny that like around 2000-6 that's when skinny jeans were becoming popular coming from the Hardcore and Emo and Punk scenes. A little later you saw regular kids/skaters wearing skinny jeans.

Now in some of the artier/hip circles horrible 90's fashion is making a comeback. Normcore, big jeans. Ugh.

I'm glad I have a work uniform and just wear t-shirts and 501s on the weekends, so I don't have to keep up with all of that.
