>>18602895This. It's barely a step above dark academia on the autistic cringe larp scale.
>>18602881Woke capitalism. Freedom in movement of goods, labor and services. Neoliberal deregulation. Blue no matter who. Classism. Union busting. Hating on the plebian poors.
>>18602987And remember: if you cannot pay all your living expenses from your brokerage, you don't belong here. Alien invader.
>>18602941And what's "larp" about it?
>>18602997The same way you LARP as Microsoft support when you try to scam pensioners.
>>18602997You are LARPing if you did not come from our community. Just like if I wore a Kimono as a white guy from Maine. That would be cringe and a LARP.
>>18603113And what "community" would that be? Chuds?
>>18602941>button up shirt>slacks>a blazer>"holy cringe... is... is this guy not wearing a graphic t shirt with Vans to work? What an autistic cringe LARPER!!!"I'm curious how anyone could look at stuff like not the right here >>18602987 and call it LARP. Larping as what? A normal person? That's what everyone wears to work. this is the least offensive and most normiecore blend-in-the-background way of dressing.
>>18603004My grandpa was a multimillionaire and only wore cheap Timex watches. I think fancy watches like this are very boomer coded. WWII vets and depression era kids would never.
>>18603167>WWII vets and depression era kids would never.Because they grew up during hard times, so they knew the value of money and saw showing off wealth to be obscene. Boomers on the other hand were spoiled brats while growing up and continue to behave that way well into their old age. Hence their reputation.
>>18603164>least offensive and most normiecoreThen stop making threads that act like it's some fancy shit that deserves cringe names like "Prep".The only "PreP" your using is the one to stop catching AIDS when your getting topped by another homosexual
>>18602895i can't even imagine how mad you must have been to make this post
I want to treat myself to a nice shetland sweater (or perhaps 2). I’m somewhat stuck on the colour. Leaning towards navy, but a moss green or very dark brown/warm black are also still in the cards.Main issue is styling. I feel like the navy ones would fall flat on blue jeans/navy trousers, so I’d have less outfits to wear (don’t like khakis for dark and cold winter time). Warm black would be the most boring, but most versatile too… And I feel like green can quickly become a bit too colourful/bright when layering with light blue/white button-ups. All have their downsides, although i like ‘em all too.If you had to pick one or two, what’d you go with, anons?

What did she get wrong?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9quubWb3OE
>>18603164>> >"holy cringe... is... is this guy not wearing a graphic t shirt with Vans to work? What an autistic cringe LARPER!!!"This but unironically. If you wear prep in a place where everyone wears prep & have dressed that way since 6 years old - not a larper. If you wear prep where other people wear graphics tees and sneakers - cringe larper.
>>18603624>What did she get wrong?Nothing *wrong* ... just *different*.People need to stop thinking of "old money" as prep done wrong and instead of its own distinct (shitty) style. Just like 2000s skater style wasn't what actual skaters wore but instead its own distinct (shitty) style.
>>18603624This "old money" fashion trend is entirely fiction, it is not real. I've met people on annual shareholder meetings with 9 digit net worths. They either wear a suit or typical boomer slop like every average joe boomer. They DO NOT know what Loro Piana is.
>>18603582Brown and grey are very versatile. You also have undeyed options for these too, which can be beautiful/unique. The darker to more formal on the spectrum. Shetland comes n many bright colours, of you can pull it off go ahead, but maybe make it your second purchase after picking something safer first. Bosie or Genuine Scottish Knits are great options, recommend. Skippers Mill, Shetland Woolen co, Community Clothing exist too, but have not bought from them yet.
>>18603582>>18603709The fist color should always be uncolored.Have some staples with the natural tone of the sheep or the natural color of the linen.Second choice some whites. Nice and neutral. Third choice get an accent color. Make sure it's only one accent color per outfit: no green pants and red pullover simultaneously.
>>18603167>tfw my 70s era Timex just stopped ticking a few days agoI heard some of them have sealed movements or something. Is that true? I hope not because I would like to get it fixed
>>18602881Why do people in /tip/ hate polyester even though irl tip types wear cotton polyester blend clothes
ask chatgpt for advice
>>18602881It’s not worth being rich if you have to dress like that
>>18603390Are you from the USA? Preppy is just a basic fashion term that middle class public school kids have worn for a long time. When I was in HS from 06-10, like half the school dressed preppy. The thread is traditional American clothing that everyone wore back in the day, ivy style that while originated in ivy schools became popular enough that it expanded past common collegiate wear to international appeal with books like Take Ivy in Japan and Black Ivy with Graham Marsh from the UK (among other books of his on the style). I don't think you know what you're talking about. There is one crazy guy here always talking about old money but nothing in /tip/ is beyond middle class.
>>18604058>and Black Ivy with Graham Marsh from the UKImplying that Jews didn't originally steal the aesthetic from the UK and sell it to American fuckwits like (You) to start with.And they still do it.And (You) still fall for it, LMAO
>>18603932Yeah, what's the point in being rich if you don't dress like a homeless nigger like every NPC on the streets?
>>18604149Lifschitz looks like elderly Bilbo.
>>18604389when 85 years you reach, look as good you will not, hmmm?
Casatlantic and Natalino are both officially using only black models now.
>>18604149I'm Jewish so idc about your troll rant. You're just trying to instigate people rather than just talk about the thread topic.
>>18604411>Denies that Jewish schmatta trade co opted traditional British clothing styles.You might be out of your depth talking about apparel
>>18603390>>18604149Being racist is a huge red flag that someone is an alien intruder into tip society and culture.Actual preppy WASPs are always nice. Having some angry grudge (no matter if far left commies or far right groypers) is an immediate tell someone is lower class.
>>18604410I don't care, cope and seethe loser. I have never bought there but now because of that I will.
>>18603167My dad's a multimillionaire and he has a few Rolexes but he just keeps them in his closet and hardly ever wears them.The stats from Rolex about the average Rolex buyer (~150k income) shows that most people with Rolexes are upper-middle class pretending to be upper class but rich people absolutely wear Rolexes too>>18604512Acting polite != being anti-racistBeing overtly racist in public is a different story
>>18604515Good luck, faggot.
>>18604521having these little resentiments at all is kind of pathetic. Definitely lower class coded.
>>18604550ahaha he's reposting his child bearing hips as if he didn't already got roasted hard enough last thread
>>18604550You better be an FtM tranny, bitch.
>>18602987Kek you guys aren’t actually neoliberals right? That would be retarded lmao.
> be me> administrator at a university> cost of living is so expensive I can no longer afford to buy trad clothes
>>18604564Trad clothes aren't in any way more expensive than t-shirts and jeans. You don't have to buy them from the same couple of well-known brands. They're fucking clothes, not high tech gadgets. There are hundreds of brands that will sell the same product (often literally, since they're made in the same sweatshops) but for much lower price (especially if you buy online). With most of the big name brands you're paying for the brand name, not the quality.
>>18604562Neoliberalism is based tho.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjD6paChdL4

>>18604552>>18604559Cosmic levels of retardation.
The only way for nonwhites to thrive in America is make them rich good looking fit guys and send them to high ranking universities in northeast and west coast and or run family business after high schoolcuz low ranking unis and public unis especially in the south has too much hazing and racism and shit.stay away from brokies and racists.
>>18604677reject racism, embrace classism anon>>18604684exactly
>>18604688por que no los dos
this thread is /tip/ related>>18604703
>>18602881is that good skiing attire?
>>18604606I’m just being dramatic anon. Let me be dramatic.
>>18604627>>18604630If you have to use edits and videography tricks to make it look cool, then it’s probably not based. Besides, Raegan was hardly a neoliberal and I said “retarded” not “cringe”.
>>18604684Wrong. A friend of mine in college (State Uni, sports school) was Asian and pulled a lot of ass. He didn't try to be some WASP. He just Chad/Jock/Fratmaxxed.
>>18604785Yeah that east asian guy fucks white girls .

I'm not sure this is the right thread but I'd be curious of what /fa thinks of this fit.
>>18605290Image didn't send
What's the /tip/ solution to a fleece full-zip?Easy to take on and off while being warm, even around the neck
>>18605291the umbrella doesnt match but the drip is fireyou need to be bearmaxxing
>>18603709>>18603721Thanks for the recs. I really like the idea of undyed as I prefer to wear ‘natural’ stuff and try to cut back on polyester as much as possible. Just looking at the catalog pics on Bosie’s website (picrel), however, I feel like it would look shaggy, i.e. as if I’ve been hugging my dog or laid in bed before going out. I know shetlands are supposed to be a bit rougher, but I’m particularly concerned about the hairyness. I already own quite a ‘hairy’ dark brown alpaca sweater, about which my feelings are quite mixed as well.So still leaning navy, as I think it’s neutral enough. If I end up loving it, I’ll go and think about getting a second.Like the idea of whites, but my winter skin is quite pale and dry so I generally tend to look rather sickly in lighter colours.
>>18602881H
>>18605291the tie is way too thickget rid of the umbrellashoes look worn outpants could probably be 0.5-1" lowercarrying extra clothes on your arm is super cringe unless you're walking to your car/house/coat rack to put them awayIf you have any musculature, v taper maxxing and slightly slimmer pants is the move. Other than that, looks fine.
>>18603927Because you can find polyester attire for $10-30 that's just as quality as whatever $5k polyester sweater that you just splurged on. Not to say that polyester's a bad fabric, it's great actually if done right. It's just that you can't flex with it.At least with other materials, sourcing and working with it is difficult so a cashmere/merino/silk shirt is actually worth the price tag most of the time.
>>18605463all the rich country club dads wear polyester golf polos
>>18605482Yeah, but do you ever see them brag about their choice in clothing? They might get compliments from other people, but polyester is inherently a humble fabric.It's a very good fabric, but not something that you'd get if you wanted to flex your wealth.
>>18605488i dont see any tip types that brag unless theyre super young
>>18605494Exactly. If you're not a flex culture retard and not trying to impress other flex culture retards, then (well made) polyester is potentially the best fabric out therethough merino still has it beat in ultra cold weather, and you might have to compromise on the weave or add in other fabrics if you want specific sheens
>>18605291mirin hard, very effay
