How often do you change your looks ?? Is it the trend makes you do that ?? where does the inspiration comes from ??

I guess I've changed my looks (i.e. how I dressed up) 2-3 times in my life.

First, I guess I just wore what my parents bought me..

Then, I admit to wearing parachute pants because they were cool at the time. I was also fond of silk shirts.

Next stage, I always wore green jeans, often a green shirt, and a green bucket hat. I went through a number of pairs of green jeans.

Then I lost the bucket hat and also I stopped wearing jeans because I got a job as a mailman and had to get some less casual pants. I started with just plain dress pants, but my crotch seams kept breaking. So I switched to reinforced Dickies pants and that worked really well. After that I wore only Dickies pants for a while. Meanwhile green jeans became harder and harder to find, now you don't see them anywhere.

I don't really remember exactly when it was that I lost both my green hats, but I know there was a period where I was only wearing baseball caps, because I have a collection of 100-200 of them, so I'd wear a different color every day.

I then switched from Dickies to windpants, I don't remember why, I just love windpants, they're so easy, smooth, light, etc. But now yet again my crotch seams keep breaking. =/ I go through these things like water. (Sometimez their zippers on the legs break too.)

I also used to have short hair when I was little, then had it a little bushier, then after i got out of junior high and could wear my hair as long as I wanted, I wore it as long as it would get. Then I got way too bald to look good with long wavy hair, so I started cutting it really short.

Also I found some cool bucket hats in Spencer's, so I wear those now. One is tie-dye, one is galaxy-themed, one is galaxy-themed but more colorful, maybe like nebulae or something, one is marijuana themed but I'm not sure if I've worn that one yet (It's just not as good looking as the others, I'm not afraid to wear it or anything.)

Oh, my shirts I tend to like with colorful designs on them, like tie-dye, or South Pole, or sometimes just blue-green, maybe with a little bit of texture, etc.

I also have changed the shoes I wear. I used to wear .. i don't know how to explain it. They weren't sneakers, they weren't quite dress shoes (or maybe they were), they were leather but with a rough texture, they were black, they were ankle-high, they just had a simple and classy shape to my eye, almost so well-balanced that i was plain.. but it wasn't plain because nobody else wore shoes like that. I also wore them with pyschedelic shoelaces for many years.

Then I could no longer find that kind of shoe so I got a few pairs of sneakers, but i hardly ever wore them. I ended up wearing sandals. Not the pleb kind that goes between your toes, the kind that have lots of velcro straps. The first one actually looked cool, it was blue and black and had 3 straps to it. Then that one fell apart. The next one was lame, it just had one wide strap that oges over the front of the foot so it would easily fall off. Then I got some cool ones again that are hard to explain the look of.. but only like probably 20% or less of my socks show through those. it has a lot of straps, or things like straps, but only one of them per shue actually opens or closes. (YES I wear socks with sandals.. I don't get why people hate it so much)
