Here is a thread to discuss the girls' summer style 2003. Question #1: should I go for a light blue Adisas zip up or a light blue Fred Perry zip up? Question #2: What looks good with white and red soccer socks?

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:23 (twenty-one years ago) link

Vicky got a lovely FP hoody in old school tracksuit material witha few vertical stripes in a deep red colour and the lining in the hood is white towelling, it rocks.

― chris (chris), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

1. adidas.
2. nothing. (take that how you will.)

― jess (dubplatestyle), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

>#2: What looks good with white and red soccer socks?

Girls 16 and under, exclusively.

― fletrejet, Monday, 21 April 2003 18:27 (twenty-one years ago) link

I think FR and I tried that one on at 99X in blue. It was nice.

Question #3: Are khaki golf shorts taking the movement to literally?

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:27 (twenty-one years ago) link

Where do you live, flatrejet?

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:30 (twenty-one years ago) link

nothing could take this style too literally and be a bad thing.

― jess (dubplatestyle), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:34 (twenty-one years ago) link

#4 white terry cloth kangol bucket hat versus as of yet undeterminded sun visor?

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:38 (twenty-one years ago) link

we're getting into raver territory here now

― jess (dubplatestyle), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:40 (twenty-one years ago) link

haha i saw this thread and was going to post "mary to thread" but it was you that started it!

how about a 1970s blue and yello cycling top? perhaps i shall dig mine out

― gareth (gareth), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:44 (twenty-one years ago) link

man, I've got white and red soccer socks, remnants of my high school team days.

― hstencil, Monday, 21 April 2003 18:46 (twenty-one years ago) link

Question #1: should I go for a light blue Adisas zip up or a light blue Fred Perry zip up?

If either is velour or stretch terry, do not buy. Torch the goods, and if the store goes up as well, c'est la vie.

― j.lu (j.lu), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:51 (twenty-one years ago) link

I am in the US. Why?

― fletrejet, Monday, 21 April 2003 18:52 (twenty-one years ago) link

I thought she meant what U.S. state, as in "fifteen'll get ya' twenty."

― felicity (felicity), Monday, 21 April 2003 18:56 (twenty-one years ago) link

I was just wondering in what state, city, etc. one of such level minded highly informed political and fashion advice resides. Aka bc I am nosy:)
(Also I was hoping for some clause in which I could escape the over 16 rule, as I am doing with me white tennies today, thanks to Georgian Justice.)

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 21 April 2003 19:03 (twenty-one years ago) link

Confidential to j.lu: I am looking at polyester. Is your advice ecopolitcally or fashion minded?

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 21 April 2003 19:05 (twenty-one years ago) link

Cycling tops are too tight fit for me, that is to say, I haven't seen any turn up in Japanese magazines lately.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 21 April 2003 19:08 (twenty-one years ago) link

hey Mary, your kind words re: my white jacket yesterday were just the self-confidence booster I needed pre-date! THanks!

― hstencil, Monday, 21 April 2003 19:13 (twenty-one years ago) link

my pleasure: you were rockin' the white zip up look -- i hope it proved effective!

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 21 April 2003 19:15 (twenty-one years ago) link

Well, more specifically Tampa, FL. I am completely unfashionable, which makes me a superior judge of fashion, because I am outside the fashion-community's groupthink, and therefore, not afraid to point out when people look ridiculous.

― fletrejet, Monday, 21 April 2003 19:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

Mary, well it was effective in that I didn't get laughed at.

― hstencil, Monday, 21 April 2003 19:28 (twenty-one years ago) link

Style-minded, although based on contrarian principles.

― j.lu (j.lu), Monday, 21 April 2003 19:29 (twenty-one years ago) link

The FP was nicer material but not in my size so I went for the Adidas warm-up. Also threw in a beige Adidas visor. Gave the soccer socks a miss (not ready yet) but picked up a couple of thin knee socks in grey and light blue.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 21 April 2003 21:45 (twenty-one years ago) link

Question #2: What looks good with white and red soccer socks?
A guitar?

― Mary (Mary), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 01:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

Question #1: should I go for a light blue Adisas zip up or a light blue Fred Perry zip up?

The light blue Adidas, because I had a light blue Adidas zip up from the seventies that was cruelly stolen from me! The new ones are not as lovely and can't replace it but they are still nice.

― Nicole (Nicole), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 01:27 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yeah I went with the Adidas. It's not all that but should do for a summer jacket. Light blue is in the stores now if you can bear it.

― Mary (Mary), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 01:30 (twenty-one years ago) link

Visors are horrible. Don't get one, Mary.

― rosemary (rosemary), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 01:31 (twenty-one years ago) link

After reading the puma thread I would like a red one and the little red Puma bag. Unfortunately I don't think Adidas makes them in red.

― Nicole (Nicole), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 01:39 (twenty-one years ago) link

RM do keep up:) I already bought a khaki adidas visor.

Nicole, I think I may have seen a red one at the store today, but maybe it was white with red stripes. They also had the j.lu hated velour red.

― Mary (Mary), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 01:49 (twenty-one years ago) link

I am not down with this Georgian Justice.

― rosemary (rosemary), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 01:53 (twenty-one years ago) link

Rosemary next time I must bring you with me as my fashion consultant.

Nicole, you are in luck. Just checked the online store and the red superstar jacket is yours for the having.

― Mary (Mary), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 01:56 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yay fashion consulting!

Yay! Thanks Mary -- off I go to check out the online store.

― Nicole (Nicole), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 11:08 (twenty-one years ago) link

what material are these tops? my initial reaction would be to plump for adidas over fred perry. though i cant help but feel a dark brown/light brown combination would be even better.

what is wrong with velour? i like it

the visor is definitely a good thing, though i think the bucket hat has got good points too. you cannot go wrong with hats really

What looks good with white and red soccer socks? - Clogs!

― jel -- (jel), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 17:50 (twenty-one years ago) link

Mary, wait until you see my outfit for Buffython.

― rosemary (rosemary), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 17:56 (twenty-one years ago) link

Clogs don't look good with anything.

― mark p (Mark P), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 17:59 (twenty-one years ago) link

I just have never really understood the appeal of clogs, they're like the Julia Roberts of shoes.

― Nicole (Nicole), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 18:22 (twenty-one years ago) link

ha ha gareth i already got the adidas one as i explained upthread:) it is polyester but feels satiny so covers the sports trend and the satin trend in one fell swoop. the fp was a nicer heavier material but a bit small for me.

#5 what goes with white tennis skirts? i have seen so far either light blue or hot pink tank tops. any other suggestions? accessories?

― Mary (Mary), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 19:25 (twenty-one years ago) link

a racquet, a can of fuschia Penn tennis balls, a gold chain and a tennis pro attractively draped over your shoulders, rowr

― felicity (felicity), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 19:37 (twenty-one years ago) link

A brown top goes with a tennis skirt, Mary.

I'm saying it to save us all from waiting for Gareth.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Tuesday, 22 April 2003 19:40 (twenty-one years ago) link

what goes with white tennis skirts?

Steffi, for one thing. Gabriela Sabatini too. Meghan Shaughnessy, ok. Chanda Rubin. what? oh. never mind.

(polo shirts of course. to the aforementioned pastels, i might add lime green, but i have a feeling that could be very wrong. black and tan.)

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 04:46 (twenty-one years ago) link

Oh! You need that special tennis underwear, with the pocket in the back.

― rosemary (rosemary), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 04:59 (twenty-one years ago) link

What's the pocket for? And when it will it be warm enough to implement girls' summer style '03, rather than just talk about it?

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 17:13 (twenty-one years ago) link

tennis balls!

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 17:40 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yeah, jel's right.

(I was trying to avoid saying "with the pocket for your balls".)

― rosemary (rosemary), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 19:49 (twenty-one years ago) link

Also, from my observations of ladies tennis, I have noticed that some have a grip device for storing tennis balls within their skirts.

(I totally can not make this sound right)

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 19:55 (twenty-one years ago) link

So female tennis players don't just shove the spare tennis ball down their knickers, then?

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 19:56 (twenty-one years ago) link

I think I am going to implement gabbneb's suggestion of lime green shirt + white tennis skirt this Saturday.

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 19:59 (twenty-one years ago) link

May I add that is is a used Fila shirt bought at Tokio 7 for $2?

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 20:27 (twenty-one years ago) link

I found it in a baby carriage.

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 20:28 (twenty-one years ago) link

Can we go to Tokio 7 on Saturday, Mary? I have never been.

― rosemary (rosemary), Wednesday, 23 April 2003 23:42 (twenty-one years ago) link

Er okay but I'm not sure it's your thing -- lots of brand whoredome...

Tokio 7 is totally like my FAVORITE store. Though "Yu" in the Lower East Side is specially nice as well. They have lots of second hand Japanese stuff, and i got my favorite tie there.

Sure!

― rosemary (rosemary), Friday, 25 April 2003 21:55 (twenty-one years ago) link

The old Japanese woman at Yu is *the cutest*... and if you buy something, she wraps it up in pink crepe paper and puts it in the most darling homemade shopping bag. Buy something!

I got a brown ringer T with Snoopy skateboarding, white sleeveless Paul Frank T with a navy anchor on it, light blue fishnets, royal blue fishnet kneehighs, and nautical-themed PF underwear. I almost got this Pringle labor whore light blue T with patches and badges all over it, which came with pins to stick on in case anyone missed the fact that it was Pringle, but R. wisely advised prudence.

― Mary (Mary), Sunday, 27 April 2003 19:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

"labor whore"?

You just made me realize that I bought some sew-on/iron-on patches at Alphabets last weekend but I think I might have thrown them away in the bag by accident.

You didn't notice my modified glamourous version of Battle Royale outfit on Saturday?

You forgot the petticoat:(

I know :(

Tell me your outfits! Or better yet, show me.

They seem to have gotten a whole truckload of Lady Adisas stuff marked down to $12-$14 at the Filene's Basement in the low 20s on Sixth Avenue.

I checked out the hot pink Islandia jacket at UO -- it is nice.

I'm all into the old-school/retro baseball logos terry strechy headband now. Mine is red white & blue 1970s White Sox, very Richie "The Baumer" Tennenbaum. I think it is from Modell's.

f.:

there is a danny clowes comic about Chicago (wrt: the "belushi-fication" of) that in one of the panels I think I remember has a guy sitting at a bar wearing that same exact headband.

haha, gygax! his was probably actually from the 1970s. Which Daniel Clowes comic was it -- not 8 ball?

― felicity (felicity), Monday, 14 July 2003 16:19 (twenty years ago) link

it was in an old eightball yes.

Scream forth, thou of the early 80's! Only mouthwatering if your man is a fanatic.

Fall edition. Thinking of which football kit would be the most fashion forward: Manchester City would seem to go well with my eyes...

http://www.coresdofutebol.hpg.ig.com.br/ENG_Man_City_kit1_02_03.gif

Why are most of the good teams red? Dave B recommended Wimbledon and Matt DC Tottenham and Charlton but my faves so far are Man City, Man United, Liverpool, Arsenal, West Ham, Leeds. The colors I like: blue and green. Recs?

West Brom and Man City are the current favorites.

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 13 September 2003 12:22 (twenty years ago) link

Bristol Rovers! Actually, a less biased point of view: Brentford.

not this morning

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 13 September 2003 13:46 (twenty years ago) link

I suspect this will change once they get to football football

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 13 September 2003 13:46 (twenty years ago) link

I decided against the Man City kit and the whole football shirt thing in general. Though it was lovely, shiny, and light blue, it had a giant ad across the chest saying FIRST ADVICE inside a balloon quotation.

On a related note, I can state that Carnaby St. has remade itself into ground zero for girly sport style/UK edition -- Ben Sherman, Lonsdale, Merc, and lots of other retro trad stylers that there wasn't enough time to investigate.

turned off by the cynical commercialism of the English game.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 16 September 2003 05:45 (twenty years ago) link

looks like girly sports style has some competition

fourteen years pass...

I just want to dress in track pants and adidas ringers all autumn.

― Yerac, Tuesday, 16 October 2018 19:46 (five years ago) link

What's stopping you? (Aside from the patriarchy.)

― Catherine Power (Leee), Tuesday, 16 October 2018 20:24 (five years ago) link

― Yerac, Tuesday, 16 October 2018 20:30 (five years ago) link

Track pants are kinda hawt tho tbh

― F# A# (∞), Tuesday, 16 October 2018 20:54 (five years ago) link

I noticed how many great athletic pants have been made for women recently.

― Yerac, Tuesday, 16 October 2018 20:57 (five years ago) link

I also think it's funny how someone pointed out Serena's black catsuit 15 years ago.
