What I See Fit

first post & boy scout uniform

Mon, 06 Aug 2007 18:36:00 GMT

Hi all, this is my first post here, so I thought I'd introduce myself a bit. I'm 24y/o, and I taught high school science for 2 yrs, though I was oftentimes confused for a student. No suprise there. Since I'm on hiatus from teaching, I'm taking the opportunity to dress less conservatively. I love all kinds of fashion, especially the creative kinds of outfits that seem to violate the "rules" of fashion yet still look kickass.

Six years ago, my ex gave me his old boy scouts shirt from when he was, like, 10yrs old. It fit me pretty well. For some reason, males really seem to gravitate towards me when I wear this shirt. Dressing like underage boys must be a turn on! :P

I'm a nerd at heart. I love pen & paper RPGs, comics, parasitology, Joss Whedon, Battlestar Galactica, and probably some other things I'm forgetting about. I love collecting music from different countries in different languages. My current obsession is Ojos de Brujo.

Hey lovelies

Since it appears we've been having a lag in posts, I thought I'd show off some Tokidoki shoes I recently got. Is anyone else into the brand? It's a Japanese themed line designed by this amazing artist named Simone Legno . I've been crazy about it for a year now and recently it's started to blow up.

The line started mainly with handbags (though they do everything from backpacks to duffle bags). The then moved onto producing incredibly cute clothing . They now do everything from jewlery to toys to ipod skins !

They look really cute with this jumper :D

Erm, you can kinda see the top of a Tokidoki shirt I've got.

So yeah, this concludes my shameless Tokidoki promo :P

Hello friends.

In the next week my laptop is being taken into the shop for a little problem to be fixed. For the time my laptop is away from me, I will not be able to access the internet, at least for a long enough time to sort out new memberships etc.

So for this reason I have enrolled miss_jaffacake as a temporary moderator, as she has had previous experience in the mod role. It's not exactly like she will be doing much, but still, she's in charge of making sure people are allowed in and are nice.

When I am able to use the internet properly again, I will most probably be hiring some new mods, to which anyone can apply for. It's an easy job really, just keeping a watchful eye on the community, answering queries and keeping the troublemakers out. A bit like a bouncer really. So there you have it.

Anyone got any questions?

First Post - Mod Post.

I thought I'd start this community off with a post from your friendly mod (hollycore), although at this moment in time I am the only one aware of this certain community. If you have just stumbled upon whatiseefit, when welcome, join up and I'm sure it will be buzzing soon. Spread the word, that there's a new fashion community in town, and it's open to anyone with an original sense of style. Since this is the first post, I thought I'd say what you should do when posting.

1 - Pick out a nice picture of yourself/your clothes, and you can even take a happy smiling picture of your face if you wish, it's up to you. I'd like the page to be kept at this size, so please keep them about 500px wide at the most. There may be an alternation in the size of the page, when the new banner is made. I did this layout at about 4 AM, so it's a bit non-permanent at the moment.

2 - Say a little about yourself if you like, but not so much that it take up the whole space. Your age, musical interests, other interests, and anything else you think we might want to know.

3 - Try to use language that we can understand. E.G. Not "omg u gadda c dis noo outfid i got. it da bom". If you speak like that, I'll ban you. :) I'm just trying to make the world a nicer place.

4 - Have fun, and remember to post the post as a friends only post. Post.

5 - Be inventive, and be nice.

Themz the rules, deal with it.
Any questions/suggestions/ideas for the community can be posted here. And I promise I will read them all.
