How did you guys find your own taste? How do you decided on whether you want to buy a clothing piece or not?

I haven't, my taste is shite.

years of mistakes, ironically now that i've achieved esotericism i've realised it's best to just revert to reasonably plain smart clothing that looks good, whilst still being appealing to the average person.
the general progression would be:
>2014-15: sneakerhead
>2016: hypebeast
>2017: bapehead
>2018: beginning to develop broader sense of fashion, getting into more high end stuff
>2019: focus on silhouettes, interest in avant garde, archive, japanese masters
>2020: conscious consoomer mentality abandonment, avoid trends and focus on timeless pieces that look presentable and smart, but not too smart

i look at the instas of men i admire and see what they're doing/wearing and a few of them look like me and have a similar height and build to me so i copy their outfits directly if i like them and they usually get me compliments, porbably because the men i follow are mostly wealthy and they use stylists to put together their wardrobes so they are usually well done.

male models instas are also great inspo
