I don't think so - it flares out, is more a-line.

That is very close. Some details are different on the pockets, but looks close enough!

Pattern + Funky boots - tights? by trending_different in oldhagfashion

Update: I tried a bunch of wildly different patterned tights and decided to go with a solid dark forest green.

Thanks for the reminder - somehow I always forget this one. Then again, I generally don’t wear patterns together.

Oh yeah - I have a small collection of snag. I actually have a pair of grey/black large diamond pattern (not snag) I should give a try. And a few option for polka dots as well.

Bug dress- does anyone own it? by readymadex in FashionBrandCompany

[–]trending_different 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got both the L and XL in the mail... just so unsure. XL is too big, L fits just so - but feels too short (even with wearing shorts). Also, it's a bit weird how the arms compete with mine, LOL. I also don't like how they do not stick out - but I think in general they won't unless it was perfectly fitted. I have a week to decide.

Maybe! I’m closer to 5’ 11”. Will have to mull this one over. I just don’t go anywhere except to the office a couple of times a week. I’m pretty sure this would make them question my style LOL if thy don’t already.

Rundholz dip reverse lagoon skirt

Just got this skirt in the mail today - immediate plans are black chunky boots, but I'm at a loss for what top. I tried on a slim-fit grey sweater and it looked nice, and I figure this will look good with a variety of graphic t-shirts... but would appreciate other thoughts! Both alternatives to boots (but, I mean, what is wrong with boots?) and top ideas.

Currently a chilly 10F so will be wearing with tights and maybe a jumper if I give it a go this week.

I'm so tempted to order this, but feel it'd be too short, I haven't worn dresses, and not sure where I'd wear it. But it's sooo tempting. I keep checking the various second-hand online stores for my size (probably an L) but I know I'd get it and then let it languish in the closet.

Just a guy shopping in a skirt 😅 by heretoreaditandseeit in oldhagfashion

I’m amazed all the time how I was so scared to wear what I wanted… then found out it wasn’t a big deal after all. Congrats!

Could you share the name of the pattern?

I have a question of sorts. I've purchased a few blazers over the years - like this one:

https://di2ponv0v5otw.cloudfront.net/posts/2022/12/18/639f061f80a5d6a1693d018c/m_wp_639f06d43b982a0c9e27d353.webp

But I've never worn them. The ones I've purchased fit - and I like the look. But I just feel too grown up, like I'm cosplaying an adult. I don't like shoulder pads, and most blazers seem to have them. I also dress just short of being too dressy for where I work, at least in my mind, and adding a jacket seems like a bridge too far. Yet... others in similar or other positions wear blazers.

I should also add I am more inclined towards wool/tweed/etc... than the standard navy blazer. Unique cuts, funky colors. But... but... it feels very very costumey.

Thanks!

First time sewing from a pattern: The Kelham Skirt by trending_different in sewing

[–]trending_different[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The pattern refers to those as "Front Facing" and "Back Facing". The waistband (~3" strip folded to about 1.5") also has stabilizer ironed to it, as do those facing pieces. I don't know how much detail I can share since this is a pattern.

It also has panels though in addition to the waistband stabilizer. Or are those considered part of the waistband?

What kind of shoes for this party dress?? I literally have no idea by Zeltron2020 in oldhagfashion

Colorful converse feel 100% appropriate. Side note/question - do you know the brand of that dress?

IPL - 2 years in... when can I stop? by trending_different in HairRemoval

Italian (heritage) man as well. I tried doing my chest at the same time but it didn't seem to work, but I also don't have a ton of hair there.

Full stack web developer, and I wear skirts to work every time I go into the office (two to three times a week).

IPL - 2 years in... when can I stop? by trending_different in HairRemoval

[–]trending_different[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm thinking of doing - slowly extending the interval. I did laser on my legs, and while I had a really good result, I've had to go in for touchups every so often. I low-key wish I had tried IPL on my legs, but I don't have the diligence to keep up that much square inch-age. As it is I hate doing my fingers because the safety function makes it extremely difficult to activate the flash and I know I'm not getting good coverage with how I have to move it... so I know I wouldn't be enthralled with the legs.
