Second hand clothes from vinnies and op shops, I am a cheap skate and there are good finds; most of the time none of it is over 2 bucks. What would you call that?? Skint fashion?
sort of work grunge. I wear mostly t shirts and work pants, or jeans, because they're comfortable.I don't own a pair of heels and my 'dress' shoes are flats, uncomfortable and are only worn out of necessity.
I like to be naked most of the time i dont like those fancy pancy materials you call clothes.. however when i have to go out i slip on whatever doesnt have shit all over or sperm etc... so yeah i am pretty sexy when i go out
fashion doesnt really matter to me if i like something i like it.

I'm kinda into that bohemian thing at the moment. When I can afford it anyway. It's cute stuff, but you wouldn't believe how expensive it is to look like starving artist.
A person should always dress appropriately, depending on the occasion. Since I'm 53, I've seen styles come and go. So if your going to buy something formal. Keep it conservative and stylish, like a James Bond movie.(elegant) Those kind of clothes are usually expensive and you want them to last, and look good for a long time. You also want to know they look good on you, feel good in them. Simply to get your money's worth, but me I like that type of clothes anyway. Just seems that there's never enough occasions to wear them.
If it's for everyday or work wear what works. Clothes that look good and are practical. With these clothes you can experiment, if you don't already know what you like. Most people know what they like especially women. Some men think flannel shirts and T-shirts are a fashion statement. I think some men still need their mother to dress them, I don't!!!!!
For women, what you can get away with, and not look too slutty. To much flesh hanging out even if it looks good might say something, you could say more stylish and with more class. If your on the beach it doesn't matter, but you should still look good. Woman like to look pretty and sexy, men definitely like to see them that way too. It's what makes the world go around. For the most part, I think 75% of women know how to dress. Then about 40% of men, without a woman's help.
Sorry I got carried away, I'm a guy (one of the few) who loves to shop for clothes for me and my woman. I always look good and so does my lady..
I agree with Kris W you really have to know were to shop.
I have a love/hate relationship with fashion. On one hand, I find fashion tiresome, fickle and boring, and on the other hand, I find fashion escapist and imaginative. It's true that clothes make the man/woman, without clothes we'd all be the same. It's interesting to me how people make themselves look like perfect fools for the sake of fashion. Example: those harem pants that are so popular right now. I recently saw a woman wearing a pair of gold harem pants with a sagging crotch, she reminded me of the hookah-smoking caterpillar from "Alice in Wonderland". There are so many fashion victims but very few people with actual style (I don't claim that I have style, I'm just saying it's rare to come across a person who is talented with style).
As for my own style, I try to choose quality over quantity, not all clothes are accessible to me so I try to purchase minimal and elegant things instead of gaudy, cheap things. I like clothes with structure and detailing, good quality fabrics, well made things. In the spring/summer I really like clothes with Grecian detailing. I also like southwestern styles in warmer weather, but I don't like boho things that look too contrived. I like some vintage styles as well but I just can't be bothered to source vintage clothes, as they are hard to find and not replicated very well. I might experiment more with clothes if I had more money to spend on clothes and if I didn't work at jobs that required me to follow strict dress codes. Fashion just seems like something I don't need much of at this point in my life. I do feel like I have a sense of purpose and somewhere to go when I'm carrying a nice handbag or if I have a nice pair of shoes, fashion can be magical like that.
Sorry, this turned out much more long-winded than I intended...
