stop the presses!
yes it should. it's possible to find harmony between comfort and style. just because it's comfortable doesn't mean it's ugly. That said, there are comfortable things that are ugly, and there are also uncomfortable things that are ugly. I personally have a hard time buying, wearing or liking anything that I find uncomfortable. |

I have an ex who just couldn't understand why everyone laughed at her when she refereed to lulu lemon as fashionable. Take a tip from japan, people dress in comfortable clothing at home, outside they wear decent clothing and don't look like shit. Fashionable can be comfortable, but don't just suddenly forget your fashion sense. Women you don't sound any smarter using the "its comfortable" excuse when you look ugly, it doesn't fix the fact your still ugly.

In a sense I disagree because in a way thats a bit superficial. However Canada is one of the few places in the world that doesnt take professional dressing seriously. Take for example the girl from Canada's Next Top Model 1st season. She wore skate shoes and hoodies when meeting with important people. She was eliminated for that reason.
I would love to wear heels, slacks, nice tops etc more often, but because of my job and the majority of the people in my job dont take dressing professional seriously... I feel silly making the effort or get comments as if its such a big deal. Same goes for going out to clubs or out to dinner. I dont know whats worse... feeling over or under dressed? Going back to what Sean said about how he notices all the Uni girls dressing that way. If your working towards a career that requires you to be professional, well shouldnt you be dressing more professional? At least in your last few years. I would think that attending a professors class and meeting them, that it would be a wise idea to set a serious impression on them. Although I guess they can forgive the fact that your in school and can not afford a suit yet. But still... uggs and sweats are pretty lame. I think ppl have taken this "comfort" belief too far and are now dressing in ridiculous miss match out fits if to say "i dont care what I look like and either should you... so there".

Agreed! Just dont wear uggs with them. Working in athletics, its very hard to do that. However with the nicely tailored lulu pants and jackets with a polo shirt and a nice pair of sneakers... I can look very hard core and professional. A lot of it just has to do with how you put it together.

Actually, Uggs originated in Australia in surf culture. They were named Uggs for "ugly", but their comfort and warmth was the original draw.

I said I don't think comfort should DICTATE fashion, I didn't say that comfort should be written off altogether.
Basically, if there are two pairs of shoes and one pair are absolutely stunning but rank maybe a 6.5 out of 10 on the comfort scale and the other pair are bland but rate a 10 on the comfort scale I think the first pair should be chosen. There's this Iranian proverb that I've been hearing from my mother since I was 11 and it translates into "kill me but make me beautiful" and I think it's totally appropriate. Women go through extreme lengths to be beautiful but if you compare women in North America to women in Europe and the middle East I'd say women here are far more laid-back. That's not necessarily a bad thing but you really don't see people getting dressed up often. |
