So i need ideas from the diverse community of Dizzy... Ideas/ Suggestions? Here are some pics of me, so you can have something to compare it too.. I need ideas for stores, outfits, and all that like.. "In this game you can't predict the future. You just have to play the odds.

Butters 0 #3 November 23, 2009 Want some advice. Go to the mall, go to a store that sells clothes that match your personality (or the personality you want to project), find a woman who works there, tell her you've got a date and you want to look your best, watch her pick out clothes for you (and possibly flirt with you). Seriously, it works ... PS: You don't need to buy everything she picks out. Just remember everything she picks out and then find stuff that is on sale that is similar."That looks dangerous."

wmw999 2,514 #6 November 23, 2009 You live in Texas. This is your look . That said, Butters had a pretty good idea. It's even better if she's cute and you get to flirt with her. Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

Orchid 0 #21 November 23, 2009 Here are varieties of styles you could pick & choose from that best fits your character/personality, not necessary for you to shop at those stores to achieve a particular look...but you'll get the idea.

Andy9o8 2 #24 November 23, 2009 All joking aside, you should have posted this in the women's forum. Do not ask a (straight) man for advice on clothing, ever, unless it's how to look like you're still in high school. This is not a task to be left to amateurs and other incompetents. Take a female friend to the mall with you, tell her your budget (which she will double), and let her do her thing. A gay guy would probably do just as well, as long as you stay away from the pastels.
