Dressing 101 (size and color)

[Anomalous]

As I was in Principles of Horticulture class, I realized that this knowledge applies to human aswell. So these are what nature intended to be. These are descriptions for things in nature (trees, plants, etc.) but applied to our needs. Here are the class notes!

Texture:
Definition:The amount of light and shadow cast by a your clothes.
Lots of shadow = Coarse textured. Caused by bigger and more cloth. So baggy clothes have more shadows.
Little shadow = Fine textured. Caused by smaller and fewer cloth. So tight shirts have less shadows.

Feel:
Coarse textured - rushed, threatened, annoying, bold, rustic, informal

Fine textured - restraint, refined, quiet, neat, formal, elegant

Color
Definition:Tends to be the first of the elements that draws the eye in a design.
Basic colors: Yellow, green, blue, violet, red, orange
"Warm" colors are yellow, orange, red. These colors appear closer than reality to the eye. The eye sees warm colors first.
"Cool" colors are blue, green, violet. These colors appear farther away than reality. The eye sees cool colors after seeing warm colors.

Color combinations
1. Monochromatic: one color and its tints and shades. So a light to dark brown, or some red with pink.
2. Contrasting: opposite colors on the color wheel. Ex: Red and Green; yellow and violet
3. Triad: 3 colors equally spaced around the color wheel. Ex: Red, yellow, blue
green, violet, orange
4. Analagous: 1 color from the wheel plus a second and third color next to it on the wheel.
Ex: Blue, green, violet

The color black, brown, white,and gray are neutral. These colors combine with any others.

-matchin your eye color is a good idea
-I know t-shirts are supposed to stop at the belt and bicep
-Polos and long sleeve undershirts are in right now
-blazers are in
-layering adds depth to your outfit
-if a tee stretches across the chest it is too small
-wear brighter colors in the spring/summer

As I was in Principles of Horticulture class...

I've personally never met a plant with good fashion sense to be honest.

I'd take it with a pinch of salt.

That was seriously pointless. It didn't doesn't even give a slight hint how to use those colors in dressing. I was learning art class all over again. Warm colors....cool colors...yea everybody knows that, but is that it?

Great tips!

Here's more:

-Get T-shirts with muscle fit (Abercrombie, Hollister)
-Make sure shirts fit good around the neck and arms
-Don't get plain blue jeans. Try vintage fades and destroyed jeans

Here's my clothing type:

Hollister and American Eagle jeans
Abercrombie, Hurley, O'Neil, and Hollister T-shirts
Abercrombie, Ralph Lauren, and Hollister Polos

American Eagle tops fit like ****.

Don't be afraid to try a Medium if you are usually a large.

you said:

I heard:

I am gay

but seriously, that wasn't a very practical guide. I'm not trying to shoot you down here -- what you wrote was certainly informing; I just don't think there's quite the need for such detail when it comes to choosing your clothes.

Are you trying to say, 'dress like a plant to attract girls'
