Which ‘JACKET’ ‘LOOKS BETTER’..? JACKET 1 or 2…?

Monday, March 29th, 2010

I have tried on both columbia jackets. They are both for winter. Originally, both jackets were $229 but are now reduced to $140. Columbia Jacket #1 seems to fit me better than the other jacket. I am thinking of getting the 1st jacket. I am thinking of using the jacket for winter. Maybe wear a sweater, jeans, and some snow boots with the jacket with a pair of black gloves. What do u think of both jackets? WHich looks better?

MENS COLUMBIA SPORTSWEAR JACKET #2

number one since u said it fits u better…why pay 140 on a jacket that doesn’t look too great in the first place?…logically number one is the wiser choice if u like it better and it looks better on u than choice 2. it fits the requirements for being warm as well.

can a guy wear this jacket?

the purple one ?

A guy could probably pass that one off in a darker color maybe…
A neutral, less girly color like brown or black might work, depending on the guy’s style.

What are some good ‘lazy’ outfit ideas?

Now. Girls at my school dress like this all the time. c: It may look silly to some, but up here in the mountains by Spokane, it gets a little chilly and we sometimes resort to just sweats and hoodies. xD

I’ve heard of the ‘basketball shorts etc.’ for girls to wear, but what other lazy outfits are out there? O_o

haha i’m a pro at this stuff.

In like middle school, everyone wore those addidas flipflops with socks and like our school sweats! It was like all the rage. I did it too. Sometimes I did it cause I had swim practice too.

Right now I have a ‘lazy outfit’ on. I’m wearing Brown Terry Pants by Juicy Couture. You can get similar ones by Victorias Secret though for a bit cheaper. If its extra cold I put footless leggings underneath. With a Henley shirt on from Abercrombie (like the one in the Aeropostale Link you posted) with grey tank underneath its from H&M. Henleys are great for this comfy look cause you usually need to layer with them, so its warm & comfortable.
Normally I wear like a thin hoodie or a cardigan, which i get from H&M or JCrew. Right now I havent got shoes on but I normally would put like uggs or moccasins on. A lot of my friends also have those ugg slipper things. Sometimes I wear flats with this. It isn’t terribly cold out right now, so if i go get a cuppa coffee like i most likely will. I’ll throw on a thin grey hoodie, a scarf, some gloves and a jacket similar to the one in your first link mine isn’t columbia brand its Puma i believe (but i got it at the Addidas store) Columbia does have warm stuff though.
Honestly the key for me is layering. I get cold easily. But i hate to wear thick sweaters and stuff that I feel suffocates me. So I wear thin layers that I can take off easily or wear comfortably.
If I’m just around the house I tend to just throw a sweatshirt on.

I do try to look a little put together and not like I just rolled out of bed. I throw some jewlery on. Or make my hair look decent and makeup. Not over done or anything. Just casual.

All the links you put up are good. You have the right idea. I have similar things on right now and feel like i have the ‘lazy look’ downpact.

All I want is opinions. I don’t care if your poor or not. Please do not list any stores that are not on this list. Oh and cross Hollister of the list plz!
Thx I will also choose best answer but not for anyone who asks for it.

Wow haha well it depends which ones you like the clothes at. If you find the clothes cute wear them. Most people don’t care what your wearing, although I do understand there are certain places that do. In that case, just wear any pricey designer brands! Haha.

My favoirte stores are Abercrombie, Zumiez, and Hollister for clothes not TOO pricey and stuff…

But like Guess, and Juicy Couture seem kind of popular at the moment. I’ve been seeing them everywhere. And Chanel…

the city of "palazzo vecchio", of Santa Maria Del Fiore , or the Cupolone (big dome) and the space here will be not enough just to list the name of the artistic buildings (saying nothing about the biggest pinacoteca in the world… th "Uffizzi")
where is born the economy from "medio Evo" , where is born the scientific think" in the renaissance…
etcetcetc IN ONE NAME

FIRENZE or as u say FLORENCE

Anyone know where I can get a Jacket like this?

Sunday, March 14th, 2010

There is a Columbia Sportswear Jacket that I really want, but can’t find. It is really light, just a windbreaker, and the whole thing can fold up into one of the pockets on the jacket. I saw it once in Oregon, but haven’t seen it anywhere else and I missed my opportunity to get one! Does anyone know if this jacket is out there, and where I can find it? Thanks!
Also, I need to know the name of the Jacket since I don’t remember it…

actually….http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006M6IQW/104-3080589-2590338?v=glance&n=1036592 thats the jacket…it’s on amazon…i forgot my cousin juist got the same one!: :)

Why is one sleeve longer than the other? Is it a hunting sweater?

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

I found a "Columbia Sportswear" sweater in a thrift store and one sleeve is about 5 inches longer than the other. It seems too drastic a difference to be a mistake. Does it have something to do with it being "hunting sportswear?" I couldn’t find another sweater online with the same style, or an answer elsewhere.

No, it’s a defect with the sweater. My husband is an avid outdoorsman and his clothing is the same as "regular" clothes. Maybe the previous owner tried to do his/her own alteration but it didn’t go as planned?
