Josh:
Today's post will feature my Threads... or style. I would say my style is emo/skater but preppy with some So Cal style. Yes, it is a remixed style. However, our location, that shall remain secret, is so isolated that keeping up with trends in not only fashion but other areas are deeply influenced by the internet. On the other hand, the need for new threads is an excuse for frequent travel. In addition, most times our clothes has to be order on the internet [shipping sucks].



Favorite Brands:

Volcom Stone
Levi's Strauss
Hollister Co

Jackets: Militarized style. Faux Fur is cool. No blazers, though. Hoodies rock too.

Tops: Collared shirts and polos from American Eagle, Hollister. Even militarized tops, especially thoses with shoulder epaulets from H&M or Urban Outfitters. Tee's that are basic are in.

Bottoms: Rock the slim fit jeans. I wear Levi's 5lls or 510s [men's skinny fit] avalible at PacSun or Urban Outfitters. For shorts: go with Volcom like the Chino's, even pattern shorts from Quiksilver or other surf brands are a go.

Kicks: I don't dig creedlers or slip-ons... whatever they're called. I usually wear skate shoes; although I haven't bought a new pair in a while. I'm looking into these awesome shoes from Supra, Supra Muska Skytop Black Dot. Oh yeah, summer's soon so slippers are important.
Quiksilver leather slippers from PacSun or Macy's go well. On a final note, this might deny my style as "punky," I cannot stand Converse shoes. I don't like the way the feel and look, but the are an original fashion trend these days.
Accessories:
Jewelry: Leather bracelets, beads, puka shells go with the style and rings
Cell Phones: Today, the trend is to get a phone that is texter friendly. By texter friendly I mean, QWERTY keypad. Also most teens are getting BlackBerry's and iPhones. I have the Voyager and its a great Multimedia phone, with a large QWERTY keypad.
Sunglasses: Urban Outfitters rocks cheap in style sunglasses. Kanye West shades and Wayfarers are in style now. Also, I have a few pairs of Oakley's, they're great for going to the beach etc.
Hats: I wear those military caps and when I wear them people call me "Fidel Castro." They rock look them up.
Of couse standard on a teen: iPod
