Thats right, I know whats going on, or atleast what I care to know is going on. Such as, Halo 3 will be available in 16 days, 20 hours, 2 minutes, and 30 seconds from this exact moment. And counting. I also know for a FACT that i like women...SHOCKER! a male writer in a fashion blog whos sexual orientation is...straight, straight as an arrow. What else is going on you may be asking yourself...well thats a tough one, the news on Halo 3 drowns out most other thoughts in my non-complicated male mind. But what little useful information I can provide includes this, the world of fashion is perpetually changing.
Fashion is no where near stagnant, well, female fashion atleast, male fashion seems to hover around a norm, not steering too far to one exreme or the other. But fashion as a whole is much like a living, breathing organism, constantly changing and adapting to its environment to fit in, or possibly make a statement.
My presence in this blog, being the only male, is to simply provide my input. To observe and address fashion trends that are sweeping across the nation, and turning women into drones who just go with the flow...the fashion flow that is. Quick question...what deductive reasoning goes through a girls head when she decides what to wear, or not to, and how much of an impact do current trends have on this process. Well if I had to guess I would think that girls dress to impress, impress the opposite sex of course, what else could it be..."oh i just want to look nice and pretty today." Okay but for who? why? certainly not yourself. Hopefully you can like yourself no matter what you're wearing or what the occassion. Unfortunately girls like to critique what the other girls are wearing, but honestly, I, being a male, am not conerned with what the other girls think. And thus, why should you, being a girl (most likely), concern yourself with the opinion of other girls. If you are dressing to impress me, the typical male, what i think about what you are wearing should be the only thing that matters. Not to be conceited or anything.
But enough about what I think, what about me as a person. Well we've covered the fact that i am a typical, straight male. I like women, cars, video games, women, and of course new technology. Something new...well lets see. I am originally from San Diego, California. I was born and raised there, until the middle of seventh grade, when i moved to Carmel, Indiana. I now live in a residence hall (with no air conditioning) at Purdue University! I am not one of those typical male butt-heads though...pardon my french, dont worry i cant speak french fluently. I'm not tall by any definition of the term, and not a jock. I dont love football, or basketball, or baseball. I dont watch or play it. I have played soccer my entire life and never played on a school team. I love to wakeboard, inner-tube, go boating, swim, work out, paintball, Longboarding (its a long skateboard with bigger wheels, built for speed, not tricks), snowmobile, rough camping, not luxury camping, surf when i get the chance, and just kick it with the buds. The list goes on...
But about my fashion sense. Well despite living in Indiana for the past 5-6 years i have kept my layed back/skater California style, but i've also adopted some midwest trends such as wearing polos and collared shirts, occassionally. I try to go for the sleek, clean and cut look. Not too much going on, no fantabulous colors, or "bling-bling". And for the most part I would say my clothes accurately portrays my personality, layed back, relaxed, chill, fun loving, but with a hint of seriousness.Anyway, enjoy the blog and feel free to ask any questions!

Hmm, I'm pretty interested in seeing how you blog about fashion! I think I am definitely going to return to check it out!
I think that this is going to be very interesting seeing as how most guys I know refuse to comment about fashion. I'm glad you're offering your input and you don't care what other people think about you because you are after straight. I also think it'd be interesting to see what a straight guy thinks about women's fashion. Such as what they find attractive and what they find absolutely ridiculous.
