My co-worker brought up the Complete Looks for Men of the Nordstrom's website (what's a credit card for?) but I knew already that the store wouldn't that puffy vest in anything short of a men's medium and the toe box on those boots was going to be 12 inches wide. For some reason we looked at the women's styles, too. That was awful.
I love the idea of the Complete Looks pages--my style sense is really Hanes tees and jeans. We should get to have something like this, too, right? A place to share general ideas, stories, and local specifics.
- What brands are good for button-ups that aren't too boxy? Who tends to have their men's shirts in extra small?
- Is it worth it to keep trying the little boy's section?
- Where can I find jeans that don't have that long guy's crotch thing going on, but that aren't all in glitter wash?
- I have no idea how to sew. Where can a kid go in Seattle to get stuff tailored, and can it be affordable?
I ran the anecdote by a few friends, and everyone said that they had experienced it themselves or knew someone that stressed about it.
So I want to hear from my androgynous crew in Seattle. What's a kid to do?
