The Shoes That Got Away

Before this year I never really cared about my clothes; as long as they were clean and sort of stylish plus fit me well that's all that mattered and then all of a sudden I began to take an interest in clothes.

I always hated straight leg jeans and now that I have one pair I fear I'll wear them out. Lol.
Not to mention I almost had a heart attack when I thought I'd mistakenly bleached them.

Anyways the post is about this pair of Tom's Shoes I'd been dying to have called the Remarque Toms with the quote "Make Art, Not War" on them. I've been waiting for about one month and a half to get these shoes because they were sold out in my size but as it turns out it was a seasonal style and now that they're gone, they're gone.
A little piece of me died when I saw that.
-sigh- Oh well.
Here's a picture for old times sake anyways. I envy those who got a pair.

I have to admit that I was a little late to the Toms game though, I didn't really take notice of them until about June-ish when this girl told me about the movement behind them and I've been down ever since. I just haven't felt the need to have a pair until I saw the Remarque's.
Because I couldn't get those I will probably go for either the Barletta Cordones or the Cortazar Cordones, we shall see very soon. Only thing that concerns me is the fact that I'm ordering online and I'm not too sure of the fit/feel and I don't want to get something out the way. Ya feel me?


Anyways I'm really into beanies too and now that winters coming in I'm looking at a few I might get. There's this Hurley one I'm definitely getting (shown to the right) and I saw a Quicksilver one I might cop as well but I'll have to see. I'm also in love with visor beanies and I own a black Tarheel one, a black Jack Daniels one, and a gray Halo 3 one. We'll see if my collection will grow anymore.

Also I'm a pretty casual dresser when it comes to clothes so I prefer tee's and collared shirts (i.e. polo's) but now I notice I'm shifting to tee's more and more simply because they're a lot more free, a lot less restricting. I saw a few shirts in PacSun and Hot Topic worth picking up and I even got a few online exclusives on the way right now. I really like this O'Neill one (shown to the left) but I think it looks too much like the other one I already ordered.  Volcom makes some really good tee's as well. Yes this is men's, I prefer men's tees over womens.

Lastly I'm feinding for a digital watch one, specifically a G Shock. This one is so hot, it's not colorful or anything, it's black (mostly 'cause I'm a simple kind of gal when it comes to clothing/accessories) anyways it's about $350 (so I won't be getting it any time soon). The official model number is "G7710-1". Or there's this atomic one I'm totally down for too called the "GW700BRJ-1A". It's highlighted in rose gold yo.





There are some jackets I'd like to cop too, I want a hoodie, a Northface, and a peacoat. I could go into specific details but jackets/coats are just something I DON'T buy on style alone because their ability to keep me warm, how they fit, and their overall ability to match anything matters to me too.


Now that you got a little taste of my style let me know wassup wit yo closet.

&& I'm out.
