i had similar ones in the late nineties. i did not look that cool at all and tbh i doubt anybody ever will.

also in general, 90s clip-on shades were so annoyingly heavy

I want to say I don't believe you but I'm assuming by having to actually teach students you're probably more aware of current trends than the rest of us

Not particularly fun fact: if you look for glasses frames on Amazon and eBay, the wire aviator with clear lenses not unlike yours is now being sold as "Dahmer glasses," presumably because of the show that just came out. I hate it. I hate the idea that people watched it and thought "drat that guy looks good." I hate all media about serial killers.

the only interesting one (to me) was mindhunter and netflix nuked it before covering btk, which would have been an interesting way to skip and show the way the fbi evolved their approach between his emergence and his capture. i guess he wasn't sexy enough for the swooning subscribers

i have not watched the dahmer one and have no interest to

boot cut is definitely a "we all suffered so you don't have to" and yet they keep throwing themselves in front of the bus over and over!

otoh maybe this means the semi shameful t-shirts from threadless circa 2005 I have in the bottom of a drawer will be funny again.....

it’s really loving weird to walk into a store like h&m and see graphic t’s with “vintage” britney spears and christina aguilera art on them. plus there is a ton of simpsons stuff that probably would have been extremely uncool to wear in the actual 90s

I absolutely loathe shopping for clothes because i have no sense of style or identity and i have perpetual anxiety about people perceiving me as being part of any particular subculture

never been in h&m, I always figured their "fast fashion" thing was meant to cater to people who want to dress jn whatever is fashionable right now and are gonna chuck it after like 6-12 months.

for dudes anyway imo you can't go wrong with regular Levi's for jeans and some shirts from like The Gap or Uniqlo for pure MOR laziness. if work needs non-jeans, then again Gap has khakis that haven't changed style in the 25 years I've been wearing them.

Yeah I like h&ms shirts and hoodies because they fit well and the price is fair, I just buy the solid colored ones. I've worn the same series of levi jeans since like jr high.

e: lol the jeans I get are the 527 slim boot cut
