Some places I notice a lot of people would rather by brand names, or whatever, and more try to "fit in" with a normal, sort of "classy" look.

I don't know if that's true, it's just the impression I've gotten.

No, it's true -- not for all people living here but certainly for a lot. I see it where I work. Everyone looks like a clone of everyone else for the most part between handbags, designer jeans, hair cuts, jewelery, etc. but then again, I have to remember that in that particular area, it's a bunch of wealthy people with nothing to do with their money and time but spend it getting services and using their credit in designer shops. Then you have people that adopt their own unique style, etc. It varies depending on the area. We have total rednecks here (they're called "pinies" because they live in the Pine Barrens) then you have the yuppies and the hippies, and so on. I like to look nice when I go out (and if that's "classy," so be it) but I certainly don't think that makes me a snob

An older lady came into our shop the other day to look at a proof, and she had her hair in pigtails.

This is a very cute hairstyle:

I am 17 years old and I love men in their 40s and 50s. I have no idea why but I'm not attracted to guys my age. I just see it as older men are more experienced.

I'm sure that sounded weird to a lot of you.

I would hope most people possess a little bit of that characteristic.

Oh. Yeah, that makes sense. I like to dress up, too, I wouldn't think that makes you a snob. I usually wear some plain black dress when I do. It could very well be where you live, I've always lived in college towns. And, berkeley/oakland especially, people try extra stuff. Well, some people. And of course, in chico, you try to find the cutest, most creative way to be scantily clad, and also you have to have tattoos/piercings. So, basically. yeah.

Good lord, no. I'm a jeans and heels girl or jeans and a nice pair of boots (oh, and a top too

)

Not to me. I've always liked that.

Drats.

Those "Juicy" pants are big in South Boston and the girls who wear them can certainly fill 'em. I was at the Cheesecake Factory about a month ago and this BIG woman came in wearing those pants and she kept touching her ass and picking her crack, as if she was trying to smooth out any wrinkles or dislodge any wedgies that may have prevented people from seeing the word "JUICY". I was having a hysterical fit.

Right now (since it's summer), the "in" thing is the O.C. Beach Patrol pants and shorts (it's written on the back). I don't want ANYTHING written on my ass. In fact, anything that takes attention off of my ass and the fact that I don't have much of one is a welcomed thing

Ugh. Man. Okay, one of my friends from high school -- she's a big girl -- she wears things that just don't fit her properly and it breaks my heart. She's turning 23 and still hangs out with 18 year olds who wear skimpy clothing. Thusly, she wears skimpy clothing and it's just. not. working. for. her. Instead of looking nice, she looks trashy. I guess if she feels okay wearing it then go for it but even her mother said something to her

Apparently, i'm never going to live that e-bay purchase down. The only reason why I bought it was because the back of the sweat shirt was really cool looking.
