ok, I desperately need a wardrobe upgrade, and I am thinking about doing some online shopping from places outside the U.S. I always thought countries had the exact same clothes, but it's actually pretty different and the stuff I have seen from some european and japanese companies was pretty nice. Do you guys have a specific place you can recommend? I'm looking for something that's fairly inexpensive, but nice, which is what I'm sure evryone wants. Thanks.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
A few years ago I saw so many clothes I wanted in Florence, Italy it wasn't even funny. I only had a backpack and was traveling on a budget so I wasn't buying, but I every store I walked by had the most awesome outfits in the window. Just real urban casual stuff, I'm not even talking about suits. And the shoes, oh god the shoes. I would love to take a bunch of money and just go clothes shopping in Italy for a week if I could.
That's exactly what I mean. I'm not fashionistaby any means, by clothes suck to be honest, which is why I want to improve, but the stuff on the European websites is just cool, casual, and looks good. It seems cheap in euros, but here it's pretty damn expensive especially shipped. What I especially like is that nothing is branded with their stupid names all over the clothes, i.e. famous, volcom, ed hardy garbage, affliction etc. it's just nice stuff. And at the risk of sounding like a woman, their shoes are awesome. Check out the site called yesstyle, it's asian. Some stuff is really cool, others are so-so. I'm still looking for a definite resource.
Nothing wrong with loving the shoes. In a country like Italy, it's hard not to. That's what I like about the Italian culture. There's no stigma to men being into fashion and shoes and things like that and being called "metro" or "gay". Italian dudes are some of the most machismo in Europe, but they've got good tastes in things like fashion, food, coffea and wine. Italy is as good as it gets in this world.Drewskie said:
I think you have big problems from your childhood if your really mean that. Italians are pussies.
On the other hand I don't see what's so special about clothes here, just pick what you feel good in, maybe put some links and let us know what you really enjoy.
Here are some good ones:

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I don't really like to go for sports brands like Adidas for casual wear. More of those street wear, good slim-fitting jeans, t-shirt w/ some abstract picture would be cool for me. Also, casual pointed shoes, not the formal ones.
