A few years ago I created this janky little video. My skills have not improved much sense, and that’s fine. Because regardless, what I think you’ll find is that the principles still hold true. If they are ones that you subscribe to. And if they don’t, they won’t. All that means is that you’ll find this amusing sans agreement and some “shit, that’s why….” moments.
If you are someone who is highly creative (I’m not talking sketch pad skills, I mean you question things a lot and seek the unconventional) and pragmatic (things need to work) then you know that one of the shittiest feelings in your jeans is when it’s uninspired, average, and fully uncommitted. Hotdog water, in other words.
What’s interesting is when I did this video, there was such a dearth of eased out jeans in the market. Now there is. BUT beware, it’s not because the market get smart in recognizing people use denim as tools, or individuals are different. It’s because of a trend - they jump on and they’ll just as quickly jump off to chase the skinny jean. As we talked about in style class: skinny, tapered, balloon, baggy, flared, etc - they play different roles in the closet. It’s not about trends it’s about creating the visual that confirms the way you want to feel. And it’s all good. Except for the baby carrot spray painted numbers. My opinion.
Watch now.
......as I sit here in my Sid's I think your giving hot dog water a better rap than it deserves......
not bland but really unpleasant.....like the jeans you used for "No's" really SCARY bunch.
enjoyed your film skills........s
When I think about all the time and money I spent trying to have the perfect capsule wardrobe and it never, ever felt like me! It was all hot dog water! So bland! So basic!
