well I realized that my clothes look really stupid and out of style so I asked my gay friend to take me to the places he shops so I can find some good clothes. I was hoping he could kinda be my personal fashion consultant, but he's bringing a few other people along too so maybe that won't work out. Anyway, I'm going tomorrow and really would like to finally get some clothes that make me feel good.

Unfortunately I don't really have a natural eye for it, and whenever I do try to buy some clothes it takes me hours.I'm going to need to be quick and flawless tomorrow on my whirlwind tour of the SF trendy clothing scene, so I need some tips on how to sort stuff out that will look good on me.

Ok, so first of all, I want to get probably 2 pairs of pants and a few sweaters/jackets, and maybe a tshirt or two - I already have enough tshirts though.

And how I look - well I'm an 18yo white male, but people always think I'm 25 or so. 5'9", very hairy, and my hair is sort of grayish darkish brown. My skin color isn't terribly dark, but not like german-white either. I keep my hair short but shaggy.

And I don't know...if somebody asked what sort of "look" I'm going for I'd probably say "disheveled professor" or "soul brother" or "radiohead" or something.


>>>>>>>so basically what sorts of things should I look for - colors? styles? types of clothing? etc

Bring a female friend along. They love that sort of thing...(Or they were lying to me every time ;))

To them, it's like the joy of shopping without having to spend any money...
