Where's the other $30 your argument's making me spend?

Quick question. Have you found that after you dye your pants the dye tends ot bleed, or is there a way you treat it? I've tried to dye a few things and then they would bleed in the was ruining other clothes. I just suck at doing it. Perhaps I'm doing it wrong.

God Bless Viv Westwood, but I just hate Bondage pants. True, I own a pair, but only due to the fact that

1)I was stuck in town,
2)it was an emergency (as in, buy something or be nude)
3)On the clearance rack, making them the cheapest thing there.

...I must say...they suck. I felt so generic wearing them. I still have them, but haven't touched them in, say, three to four years.

I can understand that. o.O Never thought about it that way.

You know, I once thought that Tripp pants were the coolest thing on earth.

Then realized that my BDU's are twice as comfortable, and infinitely more durable. Add some chains on to them, and they look great. They also don't JUSt come in camouflage. You can find black, blue, and a lot of other colors. Again. Durable.

But... Tripp pants rub me the wrong way somehow.

I mean, the style is meh. I am apathetic, though I do like chains, and I love pockets. Yet after you've seen the billionth pair, you begin to realize that they're just a represenation of that person's beliefs, on average: they shred and fade away with time.

*Sigh* Tripp pants are alright. If you want them, go get them, they look cool.

But that's it. They look cool.

And?

I don't like Tripp's wide-leg pants, but shut the fuck up. They don't fall apart. The cheaply made Hot Topic-specification ones fall apart.

People fail to realize that brands like Tripp NYC and Lip Service don't make low quality merchandise unless a large (and thus powerful) retailer requests them made cheaply for higher capital gain. That's why I said to buy from their Couture line instead.

Hippies are nice; one of my friend's parents are hippies. :B


Your idols look like their heads are about to pop. So there.
Look at a face-forward view of Johnny Slut and tell me it doesn't look like he's about to exceed full cranial capacity.



I think I just alienated about 3/4 of Gnet in one way or anther. :"D

Your Tripp plants are nothing compared to by ultra smooth velvet pants!

I think army BDUs are one of the best. I've had a pair for 4 years and they still aren't that worn. Bondage pant are awesome too, to bad the good ones arent cheap, so I plan on making my own.

I'm fine with just one skirt...Not 15. I'm a guy...Besides, making a skirt, easy. Making pants, with pockets, chains, hoops, buttons, snaps, patches, words....Etc, with a sewing machine from the stoneage, is easier said than done.

I own two pairs of pants and a pair of shorts that I got at Goodwill awhile ago, so they were all missing their accessories (chains and all that). One pair is rather big on me (black with green stitching) so I wear only when I feel like it, but the other (black with blue stitching) is pretty conventional so I wear those around most of the time. And plus they're a size large so I don't have to worry about actually "tripping".

And plus they were cheap (20 bucks for all three), so I transcend poseur and just go right into "guilty pleasure" XD
