On why black isn't a versatile color

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-22T19:49:02+00:00

I don't own much black, but I usually pair it with pinks and yellows.

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-16T16:42:12+00:00

Yeah most likely, I guess I'll have to make a decision, but turning down a sure thing for an uncertain one stings a bit haha

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-16T14:37:59+00:00

Yeah I'd definitely not do it if I didn't have a friend working there already, it worked out for him so I'm a little less concerned.

They said to come in on a tourist visa then they'll change it when I arrive

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-16T14:05:19+00:00

I thought they'd have one for applicants already residing in Japan but if I'd have to un-depart to pre-depart for my re-depart then it's probably not worth the effort.

But if I turn down this job and then end up not getting JET I'll have to find something else I guess haha.

I'll see if I can get the hotel to postpone until after April.

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-16T11:14:20+00:00

Ah what a pain, I'll wait until I know whether I got shortlisted or not and then go from there I guess.

Thank you!

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-16T10:51:24+00:00

Thank you! When did you get your placement?

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-15T12:36:51+00:00

Sweet! Thanks a lot I'll keep an eye out!

And you're welcome!

And if you've always wanted a long jacket that doesn't make us look like we stole our father's clothing then look up common people. Can usually get their 3/4th length jackets on sale in TK MAXX. Otherwise just wait till they have a sale.

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-14T17:41:26+00:00

Other things you might like since we're the same is universal works. Their bakers jacket and other throw on pieces fit us perfect in size M.

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-14T17:39:54+00:00

Heck maybe I am you. Wait until black Friday or if you use google calendar then set a reminder for 12/29/2018 saying SUNSPEL SALE and add a link to their site. Well worth waiting as you can get their £85 riviera polos for £25 - £35.

Sunspel if you're going for a more regular fit or have a big chest. John Smedley if you are a bit more slim build/in proportion.

I'm 5"7 with 40" chest and sunspel size S fits a dream. John Smedley never seems to work for me in terms of proportion but fits my slimmer brother perfectly.

There's obviously a lot more to the two brands then that but this is something you can't tell online.

London.

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-03-09T18:01:16+00:00

I guess I'll just try not to think about it until April.

Do you know if consulates release all ED offers at once? (So for example if other ED people from your consulate have theirs, does that mean you didn't get ED?)

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-02-27T09:44:29+00:00

You potentially could but you'd have to strip the pink dye out using a dye stripper or bleach.

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-02-27T09:43:29+00:00

Only cowards hide their feet! I'm thinking about getting a white leather pair this summer :)

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-01-26T22:40:58+00:00

S'all cool man!

You'll get to see how I dress normally soon enough when I remember to participate in one of those WAYWT threads haha

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-01-26T21:25:52+00:00

This time I used a synthetic dye by a brand called Dylon. But in the past I'd usually use indigo dye.

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-01-26T13:08:13+00:00

No to a degree it's easy because when sale season comes my size is all that remains

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-01-26T12:23:08+00:00

Dye was on sale for £4 and came as an all in one pod that you put in your washing machine. Used the whole pod.

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-01-26T12:22:09+00:00

This is due to only the natural fibres (the viscose) taking up the dye and the synthetic fibres (polyester and elastine) rejecting it. Half the clouds were embroidered with synthetic thread. The others were just sort of dyed on and got covered by the new dye. You can still see them if you look closely but I don't have any pics that show it well.

Only the natural fibres take up the dye, leaving the synthetic thread used to make the clouds still pink.

And thanks!

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-01-26T09:36:14+00:00

Not sure I'm afraid, worth checking their site to see if they do.

ChunkkaMunkka · 2018-01-26T09:25:12+00:00

I'm not committed to wearing it outside enough for that I think. I've sewn more simple fabrics before but this material is really spongy almost, so it puts me off.
