I donno man. I thought that baggy shapless pants that don't fit is what is hip...kids pay top dollar for that sh%t.

If all else fails....send your mom to shop for you...it will be like a flashback to school...sure they will fit and be a bargain but, you will end up in some slightly too short cordouroy slacks, an OP shirt and a pair of Zips or K-Swiss shoes.

Well, that is because you are a Dude.

Gonna have to bite the bullet and use the changing room homeboy....after losing that much weight if you just guesstimate the clothes ...your pants will either still be too loose or you will end up in a pair of pants so tight it will look like you are trying to smuggle two plums and a zuchinni.

At least on this next shopping run...be preparred to just go ahead and take a little more time.

After all, if you took the time to drop weight...it won't matter if the clothes you are gonna buy still look like crap....take the time to get something that really fits you.

Besides...it will be a perfect opportunity to find the cutest sales chick to help you out....

"I lost weight, I wanna look good, I need the opinion of a good looking woman to help me look my best....."

Make sure you throw in a "Does this make my @ss look fat?"...it is sure to get a laugh...Hell you might even score a date!

Go to a major retailer. The associate's are all up on the most modern trend's. They are there to help you. Let them do the work for you. You'll have fun.

Any popular store with clothes that fit your taste will do nicely. How about going to the mall? Also, sales associates should be more than happy to help you out. I would find it to be very fun to help someone find clothes. Congrats on your weight loss. Help is there. Styles do change...but not to the extend where we are wearing space suits. :tongue:

congratulations on the weight loss (if that was a goal)

your profile says you're a student, so i wouldn't put much effort into business attire and would concentrate on casual.

start off with just a couple of pairs of good jeans, maybe one black and one blue, and throw in a pair of khakis (if that's your thing). they are casual and comfortable, but you can still dress them up a b it.

i wouldn't go too nuts on shopping if you're still planning on losing weight, cause you'll just end up tossing the new stuff as well.

how about the shirts? do they still fit or do you need more of those too?
