I've been using 4chan for a while and didn't really know about /fa/ at all, but when I was at college I started to notice a black guy who dressed pretty well.

I'd consider him a fuccboi now, but he made me look at clothing more I'd say.
I copped a blue button-down from River Island and another one from another place (why did I cop two?), I still have them and they do their job, but that was around Xmas last year.

Since then I've been lurking, I post on /fa/ all the time, post my fit about once a month.
Have a huge shopping list.
Idk I guess I just wanted to become /fa/ after being here long enough, fashion is a really nice hobby/thing to be into.

I'm not /fa/ yet. I knew of this board for a few years but I was never really interested in fashion, I was convinced it was more practical to wear and buy clothes for the sole purpose of comfort. As I got older (I'm only 20 now) I started to notice people who dressed nicer more and I realized that I would be perceived better by people if I dressed nicer, it would help me get jobs and gain confidence. I had gained like 30 lbs in the last 2 years though so I posted by body a month and a half ago on /fa/ and asked what they think I should wear but they said I was too fat to buy anything right now, as it would be a waste of money. So I've lost about 15 lbs now, and I would say I have another 15-25 to go before I can start buying nice clothes. Just been lurking here, I bought some shoes and sunglasses so far though.

Pretty excited to start dressing well.

In case you didn't know, I'm not effay. In some ways, started shopping effay last month, but still getting into it. Will never go full effay; it's cool but kinda retarded.

Like a year ago, maybe a little longer. I just had the realization that I hated how I dressed and that all my Walmart tier clothes sucked. I was the type to just grab randomly from my pile of clothes and wear whatever I grabbed cause I didn't care.
Then I started coming here and got into the black/white game. Started off pretty minimal. Now all my fits are heavily textured and mostly statement pieces. I'm loving it tho. Def have more confidence now that I pay a little more attention to my appearance.

Anonymous Wed May 7 10:44:39 2014 No.8199840

Basically I hadn't bought any clothes for sometime, and most of my clothes tended to be skate/surf type brands and a lot of my stuff was quite relaxed and shapeless which made me look like a stoner.
I wasn't fat, but I just recently started working out with the goal of getting a more athletic physique and better posture.
I wouldn't say I'm fa/ I'm just trying to rebuild my wardrobe with solid basics with an eye towards a nice fit and nice colour combinations.
I live in a small town so some of the styles here would make you stand out for the wrong reasons, but I'm incorporating as much advice as I can and I'm definitely starting to notice people seem to be more level and open with me or see me as more mature.

Had this laying around.

I began lurking /fa/ at around 16 and slowly grew to pick up things. I can't really go around shops and look for things I like because I live in a post-communist country of slavs, thus my kind of tastes are nowhere near common enough to sell. The bare-bone postal system does not help either, packs get lost, gypsies, you have to drive hundreds of kilometers to a city with a customs office. It's really a nightmare.

I've been browsing for less than a year and it's improved the way I dress a whole lot already.
Like most people when they started I fell into dad-core for about two months but that changed pretty quickly.

Still poor, haven't copped any real pieces aside from my first pair of nice shoes (wore wal-mart) shoes all through HS)

I'm think gonna make it brehs

I've been browsing for about two years, 19 years of age currently, and mainly dress dad core because I have a nice job and would get pulled over otherwise in my neighborhood due to being black (this area is almost entirely asian). Don't really have the same "I'm better than everyone around me" mentality that a lot of people on /fa/ and 4chan in general tend to have simply because my clothes are expensive and fit, but I do cringe when my 34 year old brother comes to visit wearing the latest Js, a tank top, Yankees fitted, and cargo shorts.

Began lurking when I was sixteen. Dressed pretty much like every other person around here. Graphic tee, jeans and Vans every day. Had an awful Justin Bieber-esque mop-top and glasses, looking back on it I hate myself for it.

Since then I have ditched all my graphic tees, got some skinny jeans and basic tops. Learned a lot about fashion, even if I don't have many pieces yet because I'm not rich (uni student) but I do notice myself judging people for what they're wearing. Also got a haircut and got contacts, which made me look so much better, apart from getting better clothes.

Funny thing about the OP, my hair has seriously reached the level where it falls perfectly into a HY.

I discovered /fa/ in 2009 and wore the basic uniform until about 2011, when I started dabbling in basic streetwear until 2013.

I'm now in some sort of limbo where I own two colored articles of clothing and a pair of orange sneakers, slowly replacing everything in my closet with black and things that go with black.

I do however keep a regular wardrobe for work. Faggots.

Before /fa/, I was dressing like any other teenager, hoodies, blue jeans, vans.

When I discovered /fa/, kind of the same thing but with a better fit, shirts instead of hoodies.

Now, better brands, comfy japanese style with brands like Trove etc.. Muted colors.

Always wanted to be /fa/, never had the time or the money. Visited this board a few times then returned to my homelands of /ck/, /x/ and /tv/.

Just finished moving house today, fucking exhausted but I'm quite excited for this chance to make a clean break, once I've paid off the moving expenses, I plan to start spending on clothes and getting rid of the beer flab.

I currently have a pile of battered old clothes that exist solely to cover my nakedness. Until a month ago I literally had one pair of knackered old trainers as my entire footwear collection. I have one pair of trousers that fit comfortably, and one or two t-shirts that I think look okay on me. I stay indoors as much as possible. Sometimes I disgust myself.

I have a dream of looking good and carrying myself with confidence though, so I came here today, for the first time in a year, to begin the reinvention of myself armed with knowledge and inspiration.

Hopefully /fa/ will do for my style what /ck/ has done for my kitchen.

dressed really basic in high school (vans, skinny jeans, hoodies). went through an urbie outtie indie phase when i was like 18, found /fa/ and have since sold all that shit pretty much. i'm 20 now and have gotten a few nice pieces here and there, try and stick to a pretty minimal mostly black wardrobe (still trying to lrn 2 color). feel like i found /fa/ at just the right time cause this past year i've just been working (still living at home) and browsing /fa/, listening to music, reading, shit like that. so i've learned a lot about fashion and am developing my own taste in it. and my girlfriend and i are moving to seattle in a few months so by then il hopefully be pretty basic fa. this place really helps a lot though when you don't take everything super seriously. thanks guys.

after i took accutane and got rid of all of my cystic acne and i had finally lost a shitton of weight and become thin as hell back when i was like 16, i realized i was still dressing like a dingus in beaten up running shoes and band tees and shit. so i went to /fa/ for a while and went "fuck this, this is too expensive" but i became h&mcore for a while and basically wore nothing but cardigans and desert boots, it was stupid. anyway after doing that through most of the rest of high school i get to college and blossom out of a fairly awful depression (my high school gf was awful to be around and threatened to kill herself if i broke up with her) i realize "damn i'm still dressing like shit"

so basically i've spent the past five years or so overcoming a series of hurdles that have prevented me from being /fa/ and now i'm finally in a good enough place as a person to want to love myself and buy clothing that will make me really happy. i see wanting to wear things that look nice as natural; well-crafted clothing is art that you can display on your body. it's not about looking attractive for me so much as it is about appreciating clothing for what it is

First time I ever thought about fashion a lot were alternative bands I listened to in middle school like Mumford and Sons and Creature Feature. I loved more modest old fashioned/ Victorian clothes like they wore because I hated the way emos, indecent"popular" kids, ghetto people and future fuccbois wore and still ware. I dressed really shit and awkward until I was 17 last year because I fell in love with 60s music and the fashion particularly of rock stars or just the high standard of fashion of music/movie people in the early-mid 60s. So by them I think I've learned and dressed far better than my plebian/romantic days in middle school.

I'm still not even /fa/

I'm completely average
6' 150 lbs with a decent face
and I just wear really skinny jeans, shirts, henleys and flannels, vans and toms basically.

I'm everything this board hates. I work at a mall so I can't afford much either, but I enjoy fashion and have been told I have a good vision for it, just my collection is not impressive at all.

good luck man. it gets easier as you save inspo for outfits you want to wear when you get to your goal body. really pushes you to lose those pounds. I'm feeling pretty good after losing 15 lbs, not unmotivated at all. Buying shoes, watches, a nice pair of sunglasses to go with your future outfits, grooming and getting your hair nice really gets you excited to lose weight and dress nicely. Saving up for a watch currently myself.

I wasn't that aware of fashion until the end of high school, before that I just abstractly thought goths were cool and wanted to look like an anime character. junior/senior year I stopped dressing like a weeaboo goth but all I wore were jeans and hoodies, moved to cardigans from there, had no real sense of fashion.

I've only recently taken steps towards being /fa/ though, and I'm 20. I've come a long way but I have a lot more work to do and need to practice putting outfits together/buy better clothes. My hair still needs a lot of work too. It's just a money/waiting game at this point.

I cared about how I dressed since maybe I was 12?

at 14 started buying clothing for myself but didn't really know about "fashion"

at 16 sister took me back to school shopping and i realized that dressing well made me feel good

17 started getting seriously into it

19 and i've come a pretty long way with a long way to go but i'm pretty content with where i am and what i know atm
