what cracks me up, is that fluffems felt the exact same way. he even went so far as to insist that i take numerous different pictures of him, in each of his carefully selected getups, a task that i was more than happy to complete. fluffems' sense of style has become a source of great amusement to me. he is one of the few males i've ever encountered whose fashion risks rival my own.
in the beggining, i was a bit put off by some of the items in his wardrobe. i even went so far as throw away a few choice garments one day when he wasn't at home. since then, however, i've learned to accept his style for what it is. after all, i'd rather be seen with someone whose style clearly shows personality, even if it is a bit ridiculous at times, than someone who always looks bland and boring. in this way, i've come to think of his more, *ahem*, "outlandish" pieces as funny and endearing.
here's an example of a piece that would've ended up at the salvation army. yes, that is a pikachu t-shirt, and it was clearly made for someone about half his size and a quarter of his age.
in this ensemble fluff is trying to channel the spirit of a ten year old girl by simultaneously wearing knee-his and posing like he's in ballet class.
fluff was so excited to finally get to meet his style icon, zac effron. his brother ernie was pretty into it as well.
fluffems' style trademark is none other than the kangol. he has one in every single color known to man. he even has a department store style hat-rack, complete with fake heads, for storing them all.
i must admit, he does clean up pretty nicely, and he is kinda dreamy.
and last but not least, here is my favorite picture of fluff ever, ever, in which he proves how gangsta he really is, depsite the fact that he's wearing women's sunglasses (mine). also, he's wearing a bright blue bowtie which he decided was a good idea after seeing one on some kid from the disney channel. still though, he's a total badass. i doubt that there's anyone else in the world who could put on this same outfit and wear it with as much sauvidad as he can. in the end, that's one of the things i love about him the most. his style is always, one-hundred-percent, utterly and completely his own.
love always
