/fa/ doesnt have an aesthetic

>>9272724
Every fashion forum does.

mfa = mancore (manly things like leather, denim, and boots)
/r/streetwear = thrifted polo windbreakers, khaki chinos and footlocker nikes
styleforum = dadcore
/fa/ = dressed by the internet (apc, acne, cp, stan smiths, rick, raf etc.)
sufu = nxtlvl
caretags, sz = cuck-core

>>9272753
>tfw I can't identify with any fashion forum
i just want to be dressed by my online peers

>>9272753
I'm just getting into fashion and to be honest, this is all confusing the absolute hell out of me.

>>9272753
sufu = pls bully me irl

ftfy

>>9272753
Styleforum is the best and most informed. It's only "dadcore" because many users are mid 30s or older. As opposed to /fa/ which is 13 to 16 year olds.

>>9272795
No that is objectively not right

i dont agree with this, but every fourm does have an aesthetic

post cuck-core, I have no idea how that looks like

>>9272770
Don't pay attention to the banter that goes on and the labeling. Just focus on the aesthetics that interest you.

Why do you smoke so damn fast?” I asked.
She looked at me and smiled widely, and such a wide smile on her narrow face might have looked goofy were it not for the unimpeachable elegant green in her eyes. She smiled with all the delight of a kid on Christmas morning and said, “Y’all smoke to enjoy it. I smoke to die.

I’m not hot or gorgeous. I don’t have an amazing figure or a flat stomach. I’m far from being considered a model but, I’m me. I eat food, I have curves, I have more fat than I should, I have scars, I have a history. Some people love me, some like me, some don’t like me. I have done good, I have done bad. I’m random and crazy, I don’t pretend to be someone I’m not. I am who I am, you can love me or not. And if I love you, I do it with all my heart.

I hate rings and bracelets on men. I'm not a fan of man bags, or girl bags either—or even sunglasses. I don't like fussy accessories. Isn't it more chic to be free? Every jacket I make has interior pockets big enough to store a book and a sandwich and a passport.

>>9272970
oi, john green is god-tier fuck off

>>9273075
really?? the alaska one is okay cuz it's kinda sad that the girl dies at the end, but the cancer patient one they made a movie about is really boring and lame
i've only read those 2 books but they're almost identical - two edgy teens who love books and smoking fall in love, then one of them dies before their relationship goes anywhere
it's really fake and gay how the characters recite poetry and memorize book authors because nobody does that in real life

can you explain why john green is god tier pls???

>>9273125
he is god-tier in the entertainment realm, Alaska is by far the best, the rest are just fun to read.

also, the qts love his books so...

>tfw john green gets me laid

>>9272697
>wearing a oversized tee that he has to hold up
>skating in slip ons that will tear in 10 pops
>wearing fucking leather/wax pants
this nigga can't be serious

>>9273125
the alaska book the girl dies half way
but yeah his books all have the same premise and it's boring
read alaska before fault and fault just seemed like a horrible carbon copy
monotnous
anyway i do recite poetry and memorize authors of books but i'm definitely not having the two be the main motifs of itl conversations
btw not the guy you replied to
camus and hemingway and kerouac and kafka are goats to me

>>9273148
what books from those authors do you recommend?

>>9273148
>kerouac
>goat
confirmed for 18 year old pseudo-intellectual

>>9273141
so?? bieber is also god-tier in the entertainment realm; doesn't mean the songs his writers come up with are any good

lots of qts like bieber too (if ur still a preteen)

>>9273168
/lit/ would bash me but
hemingway's garden of eden
camus' the stranger
kerouac's on the road
kafka's metamorphosis
the love song of j alfred prufrock by t s elliot is my favorite poem
i laughed when it was referenced in fault in our stars

>>9273191
18 year old is correct
pseudointellectual is wrong
just desensitized by the internet

>>9272804
you're right it's more like 99.99999999999999% 14-17 year olds here

>>9272829
elaborate your opinion of each boards aesthetic please

>>9273148
>Kerouac
>Hemingway
wut, they are John Green-tier

>>9273206
never said they were good bro, they are fun i was poking you with that god-tier thing.

le beiber is not fun or good, i do love me some TayTay tho.

>>9273208
thx
and which one is worth reading first lol
i barely have time to read :((

>>9273237
john green is no where near either of them
but, to each their own
what would you recommend i read based off the list of authors and books, and me being 18?

>>9273248
kafka's is a short story
it's a wtf just happened book hahaha read that one first
hemingway's technically doesnt lead anywhere. it was found on him when he died and the publisher's took out a midplot/storyline so that one also isn't very complete, in all senses of the word
i read the stranger in half an hour

if you ever have a lot of time to read, read toni morrison's beloved

>>9272753
nobody on /fa/ dresses raf-core

>>9273259
the hemingway book sounds really interesting from what you described
metamorphosis is about a guy who turns into a caterpillar or something right? friend recommended it but i haven't read it yet
thanks for the reading list yo

>>9272753
you're right about how every forum has its own aesthetic, but those are all wrong

>>9273283
well if you include end of season sale raf dipdyes, then yeah a couple people do

there she blows

>>9273310
thats not rafcore tho

>>9273289
hemingway's book is very interesting, at least to me
it's about a writer and his wife honeymooning in europe, mainly france spain and italy i think, and then they both fall in love with a separate woman
the book touches on adultery and androgyny and a bit on homosexuality
i thought it was amazing

metamorphosis has the main character turn into a cockroach so you were close. when you read that make sure to keep track of his decisions and also pay attention to the sister

oh also Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a great book, i think by james young
i actually never finished it, by far the hardest book i've tried to read

>>9273250
Kerouac can't write for shit, he has like 10 amazing paragraphs in each novel, the rest is shit. I mean, you should read On The Road just for how important it was, and it might make you all excited about leaving your boring high-school life, but really saying Kerouac was a great writer or an amazing person is objectively wrong (yes).

There are lots of authors, like too many. Read Carver, DFW (his essays are way better than his fiction), the most famous Pynchon, Joyce, Baldwin, IDK.

I feel Kerouac and Hemingway are so acclaimed just because they are kind of different in a Tarantino-esque kind of way, just shock value, they get old fast.

You might want to start with the Greeks tho

>>9273237
OMG yessss taylor is the best
blank space was better than beethoven and mozart combined
she's so pretty i'd marry her hnnnhg

>>9273314
What shoes are they?

>>9273324
ayy
>tfw the Swift will never shake my hand
in times like this I think about spending loads of money in surgery, i need like 5 inches more, a nose job, and a penis enlargement to fill TayTay with all my love.

>>9272970
holy fuck this is so poorly written. why do 13 year old girls love this shit?

>>9273208

You're right, we would bash you. I guess I was assuming a little bit too much when I thought there was decent crossover between the two boards.

Everything you mentioned is basic as fuck and certainly not worthy of being called GOAT, but it's a start. Pls don't give up reading or stick to the same people for the rest of your life, you may actually have the potential to be an interesting person.

>>9273366
keep in mind that, besides the garden of eden, all the books and authors i listed were ones that were assigned to me my last year of high school.
so, on my own now, which books would you recommend?
I'll read anything recommended; I'm currently reading 50 Shades because a girl i know said it was "great".
it's not.

>>9273366
What're your favorite books then?

>>9272938
this is kinda cool tbf

>>9273374
may goy, all this bait

don't you mean your last year of elementary school? read /lit/s sticky, don't forget political fiction, essays, poetry and stuff other than novels.

finish reading A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, it is, imo, Joyce's finest works, and the most accessible by far, push through it, it is not hard at all, really. it is not shades-of-gray-easy but it is not fucking nuts, if it is the hardest book you've tried to read, you better step up your game fast.

>>9273075

there was a whole inspo thread like yesterday with just that except with black parkas on

All you people give insufferable recommendations. Why is there no mention of Finnegan's Wake? I knew /fa/ exemplified plebeian, but I didn't expect the potential minority to be so disgustingly plebeian.

>>9273407
Hmm I guessed they would be but I don't see the colored bit on the back of tongues.

>>9273391
hilarious m8
i'll read the sticky
i kept away from /lit/ since it's as elitist as /mu/, but then again so is /fa/
i dont meant hardest as in oh man i dont understand this, but as in it was difficult for me to get invested into it
i wrote my AP Lit Exam essay on it and somehow passed without finishing the book, so clearly i understood it enough
i like t s elliot, what other poets should i study?

>>9273406
stan smiths jesus

>>9273374
you would probably like haruki murakami, he's often derided for writing a lot of similar stuff but he's decent, try Kafka on the Shore.

Raymond Carver's short stories are great, there's probably a few anthologies but What We Talk About When We Talk About Love is probably a good place to start.

One of my favourite books is The New York Trilogy by Paul Auster, it's a trilogy of metafictional detective stories.

>>9273416
Because Joyce is insufferable. Also there's no apostrophe in Finnegans.

>>9273431
Ezra Pound, Erat Hora is my favourite poem. Check out some other modernists, manifestos as well as poems. You should be able to find an college level modernism collection fairly cheaply that will give you a good grounding.

>>9273416
Yeah where is Gravity's Rainbow, m9? Fucking plebs

>>9273310
theyre raf simons, but not rafcore

i bet no one in this place would ever be able to wear anything from this season's sterling ruby collab, seeing as how everyone here is mad insecure about their height

>>9273456

>>9273441
I'm reading a Murakami novel right now actually. The writing style is really interesting even though it's a translation.

>>9273989
I'm thinking of upgrading to a Surface when I go to uni. I tried one at a Microsoft store and it turns out they actually run really smoothly. Also, Surface tablets are lightweight, they can run any Windows app, and there are useful accessories like the keyboard cover and docking station so you don't need a separate laptop/PC. But they're expensive ;_;

>>9272697
/fa/'s last five aesthetics were tired before /fa/ even got to them.

>>9274817
what aesthetic do you recommend that /fa/ has not jumped on yet?

>>9274824
I'm tired of these big aesthetic movements fashion forums are always pushing. Just think about clothing for a change.

>>9274840

u 12 year old meme piece of shit

>>9275185
I have yet to read most of these books, but they are generally agreed to be very good. The ones I have read from the list are 1984, Dorian Gray, Huckleberry Finn, and Lord of the Flies. I only really enjoyed the first one. The other three weren't bad at all; they were just weren't anything extraordinary. But you should read them and decide for yourself.

>>9275254
dorian grey and huck finn >>>>>>> 1984 (piece of trash)

>>9275254
brave new world, fahrenheit 451. 1984 were all jsut generic "fuk da gubment" bullshit. fahrenheit was the most tolerable

catcher in the rye was fucking boring

clockwork orange was cringeworthy

slaughterhouse 5 was terry pratchett tier "lolsorandumb"

i read the invisible man but i cant really remember anything from it

american psycho was ok

to kill a mockingbird, one flew over the cuckoos nest, of mice and men, lord of the flies, huckleberry fin were all good

do androids dream of electic sheep was actually pretty good surprisingly

>>9272923

caretags is fucking gross stop posting that shit

>>9275254
i've read all the books on that list

they're all good apart from 'fear and loathing' which is just drivel. could also probably skip 'of mice and men', 'the great gatsby', 'american psycho', 'fahrenheit 451' and 'huckleberry finn' if u want. as they're deffo the weaker books on there

>>9276927
Great Shark Hunt and Hell's Angels are way better than Fear and Loathing, probably on the list cause it's the most famous Thompson book, after all it says "starter kit"

>>9275254
>1984, Dorian Gray, Huckleberry Finn, and Lord of the Flies
Did you only read what was required in high school

>>9272753
r/streetwear is a mix, khakis are almost looked down upon, windbreakers have mixed opinions and no one really wears footlocker nikes. More sk8 hi's than that
