crimes against fashion

Exhibit A:



Oh dear god. I blame [livejournal.com profile] out_of_words24 for posting this for me to see, when I was happily ignoring the existence of SJ's 6jib comeback and title song. I actually like the red-gold gradient filter and Donghae is sex personified as usual (LEE DONGHAE SARANGHAEYO), Kyuhyun needs to sing more Chinese, but Hyuk also looks really good and I, as always, dig the fuck out of Sungmin rocking bleached blond hair. It's nice to see Kangin alive, I guess? I cringe in embarrassment every time I'm reminded of Eeteuk and Siwon's existence in this MV though. OH GOD LET'S NOT.

I also heard about Heechul, so, um. Wow. I think kpop actually got even more batshit and I didn't know that was possible. The dark side to all fandoms...

Exhibit B:



1. plaid suit
2. gingham shirt
3. polka dot tie

WHAT HAS FASHION EVER DONE TO YOU, CLAUDE GIROUX?

[livejournal.com profile] celerywench: sobbing.
the worst part is i really think he looks in the mirror and thinks to himself, damn, i look good
[livejournal.com profile] meiface: i want a fic where danny's kids mock him
a lot
or well carson and caelan do
and cam is loyally like "well i think he looks good!"
but that's because claude's his favorite person in the world, okay

Then I went and rewatched this and remembered why I continuously forgive G his multitude of fashion atrocities.

Exhibit C:

Me. Maybe. I now own 500% more orange in my closet than I did before (where I owned none). BUT ORANGE IS A GREAT COLOR ON ME, OKAY, IT'S LIKE I WAS MEANT TO BE A FLYERS FAN. BY THE FASHION GODS. Who abandoned Claude.

WHATEVER. DID YOU ALL SEE HOW ESTAAL AND JSTAAL ARE OFFICIAL NOW? Excited for the new season? Yesssssss.

IT'S OKAY I FORGIVE YOU YOUR CRIMES AGAINST FASHION TOO.

Although he weirdly pulls off pink really well!

He doesn't even have to wait until he has his own kids to mock him for his terrible life decisions; he has three boys already happily on that boat of mockery!

I would so read a story where the kids make fun of Claude's fashion sense. Probably he says things like, "You're not even old enough to drive. What do you know about fashion?" And Carson shoots back, "More than you," and Caelen and Carson are just scared enough of getting in trouble for it not to call Cameron a baby when he takes Claude's side.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2012-07-09 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Carson totally knows about fashion! Carson is going to be in high school. He knows these kinds of things, okay, and the stuff Claude wears isn't even like when adults try too hard to look cool and it's embarrassing, it's just awful. All over. Melinda from Ms. Wakefield's class would call him a "walking, talking fashion disaster" and Melinda always looks really good so. Yeah.

"You're a walking, talking fashion disaster," Carson tells Claude.

/takes one look at SJ

... quietly turns away

Is the gradient supposed to distract us from the fact that their sets continue to suck ass? Stop it, SM, now you're just embarrassing yourself.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2012-07-09 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
ahahaha I know right? Another one of my thoughts: wait. They're in a formless box thing dancing again? Are you kidding me?!

Although your orange wedges are super awesome.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2012-07-10 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
My life choices are excellent. And orange.

See I just wasn't meant to support the Wild or Nucks, for instance. Blue and green actualfax look terrible on me.

NO NO NO the worst part is that I'm looking at G and thinking to myself, damn you look good (despite your terrifying choices). The deepest sign of my immolation in hockey madness is that I now kind of? have a plaid fetish, thank you G and also Jonathan Toews.

Let's have a Giroux v. Tazer deathmatch, shall we?

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2012-07-10 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
UGH EVERYTHING IS TERRIBLE AND it's true though; our tastes have been thoroughly compromised because I find both G and Tazer unspeakably attractive even in their atrocious fashion choices.

But if you're making me choose :((((( I will pick G BECAUSE HIS HAIR. ALSO. HE SMILES.

Don't you dare show me a recent pic of Tazer with his newly-long hair alskdhfsgj.

Oh, and when I was in Philly last week I caved and got a Giroux shirt, which, I don't even know when I'll wear it because I'll feel like a filthy betrayer if I have it on versus the Hawks. But basically I just can't like the Hawks' logo, so *sadface* I can't see getting a Hawks sweater anytime soon. I've seen a pretty cool (fanmade?) alternate logo that's a hawk head with the colored feathers hanging down, and I pretty much wish they'd switch to that.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2012-07-10 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
No, no, that was an EXCELLENT LIFE DECISION. Giroux shirts can only be for good. And you will wear it every time the Flyers play, obviously, whether or not you are there! :D

Yeah, I actually don't have any Hawks merch because originally I wanted Kaner stuff and then...I didn't. And now they are out of my top three teams of my heart so maybe one day! We'll see. I still really, really want to see and respect Kaner on ice though because damn.

I probably need to get some Caps merch pronto since I'm in DC and going to their fanfest next weekend, haha. The problem with having so many teams...

[identity profile] papered.livejournal.com 2012-07-10 07:13 am (UTC)(link)
wow, I did not even realize SJ has their sixth album out. I watched the whole mv just now, but only because I still feel this lingering, unexplainable obligation to at least listen once to at least their title songs, lol. (Donghae is pretty. As is Kyuhyun.) (What has happened re:Heechul? you are the only person on my flist now who even speaks of kpop...)

rolls on you!

lol and I barely talk kpop anymore - I think a lot of people have just stopped posting to LJ in general. :(

This is what happened with Heechul (http://www.allkpop.com/2012/07/kim-heechul-posts-about-sasaeng-fans-before-closing-his-twitter-account). Basically, crazy stalkers.

OH MAN I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT but yes I did! It's...weird. In the way that it's always weird when kpop stars aim for the US market, you know? But to be fair the WG have spent a lot more time laying down their groundwork here and they do a pretty good job of looking/sounding like a lot of the popular music out nowadays in the US so...I think that's good, right? /squints

[identity profile] acornmama.livejournal.com 2012-07-10 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I see suju and just remember how stpidly in love them they made me feel when I first discovered them. The idea that they have a 6thJib makes me happy.
The best part of course are the live performances, on the music shows. Think Donghae looks good in the videos? On stage even better.

Kpop never dies huh?

I feel that way about Big Bang and Wonder Girls mostly. :3 SJ just leaves me confused about what they're doing most of the time, but I suppose part of my heart is always fond of them. ♥

Ughhh Donghae is always so perfect. Still my favorite, always!

[identity profile] ilu.livejournal.com 2012-07-11 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
OH SF&S IS SO TERRIBLE. KYUHYUN'S ANTI-FLEA CONE. the cone of shaaaaaaame, if you've seen UP.
donghae looks SO GOOD in the first 10 seconds or so, ughhhh. I was assaulted by an unusual wave of Hae!feelings, it was great.

dude, literally every red item I own is either Nationals or Caps swag. I feel your pain.

btw I followed you on twitter! I'm @kangin. I'm not a massive spammer, but a lot of my blabber is k-pop related which I know you've been happily ignoring, so you can follow back or not. :D;; If it's any consolation, most of it today was about Zhou Mi? lol



OH WAIT P.S. DID YOU SAY YOU WERE IN DC? SO AM I. Help me convince Cathy to come and visit so we can shower her in Caps things and love.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2012-07-11 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Seriously, wtf were they wearing and ALWAYS DANCING IN A BOX aslkdfjd oh SJ. But I did enjoy some of the other songs on the album? That I only heard once... I'm just terrible with kpop these days.

:O Yes I'm in DC! MD side though and rarely in the city because I'm lazy. We could definitely hang out sometime! I met ummmmmm [livejournal.com profile] peachpastische's wives once? :D;; Don't know their LJ names though. I'M THE WORST, SORRY.

But yesss let's gang up on Cath and drag her down here. ♥ CAPS.

lol suju. mostly i ignore them nowadays cept for heechul and ryeowook and whatever kyu's pop up.. heenim ;;; <3 6jib was.. well idk didn't have any expectations so it was okay. mv same as usual, what do people expect from sme?

BUT THERE ARE MIMI'S. in horrible polka dot suits with cropped pants and scandalously open shirts. sigh.

but he is also ridiculously adorable and dumb so i forgive him.


sighs at giroux too.

ORANGE IS GREAT. i have orange strappy heels :3
but i need flyers merch. and caps merch. and i still want hawks merch. i'll leave the canes to you and the oilers to lille...for now. lol

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2012-07-11 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
heheh don't worry, we've got our #1 teams covered with love. We can all share the Caps and Flyers love! SO MUCH LOVE.

alskdjfd ugh so tired of SME's boxes, don't care, I am happy Mimimimi still exists. :D Even in awful polka dot suits. Oh god, there's a corner of fashion Giroux hasn't managed to wander into. Just wait, the next big thing in the NHL after plaid suits is going to be POLKA DOT SUITS. /cry

MAYBE EVEN ORANGE ONES?
