A lot of people like to sensationalize things. I'd like to think it's just people going and having a good time.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274905 Sun, 31 Jul 2022 08:47:45 +0000 Lana 2274905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YKK I think there’s a common thought that it’s about drugs but we did not find that to be the case. &nbsp;Just like any city there will be some that take drugs, but there is a vast majority that don’t.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274873 Sat, 30 Jul 2022 23:02:25 +0000 YKK 2274873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Lana&nbsp;<br />I never thought of&nbsp; Burning Man, that's a place to do as much cosplay type stuff as you want. I could probably come up with some pretty wild stuff. I wanted to go but I started hearing stories of people walking around naked, drugs being involved not really my thing so I never bothered with it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274872 Sat, 30 Jul 2022 22:56:09 +0000 YKK 2274872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Zaeobi I like black but I use grey and now electric blue. For athletic clothes even a man can get away with a lot.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274848 Sat, 30 Jul 2022 19:12:02 +0000 Zaeobi 2274848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@YKK I always made a conscious effort not to rely solely on black, like many folk did. </p> <p>So much so that I've now made a capsule wardrobe for it, lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274847 Sat, 30 Jul 2022 19:08:00 +0000 YKK 2274847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>cat2 Saw a video of some guys fighting in the ocean over this I guess it still is going on. Looked like they weren't going to be winning any Nobel prizes any time soon is the problem. Ventura is awesome though I used to ride the </p> <p>Pacific Coast Bike Route. Incredibly fun, I'll be back up there to do that again eventually.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274790 Sat, 30 Jul 2022 13:22:11 +0000 cat2 2274790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YKK: The worst was like gangs, the rest was just the usual kid stuff. Vals drive over some mountain roads from the Valley to visit beaches in Malibu and through the Simi Valley to visit Ventura County line. Malibu and County Line were the best surf spots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274761 Sat, 30 Jul 2022 07:24:50 +0000 YKK 2274761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/member/ignorantawareness/">Zaeobi</a></p> <p>A discordant color scheme. Kind of cool.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274646 Fri, 29 Jul 2022 16:45:27 +0000 Zaeobi 2274646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure whether you could ever call my style 'crazy' but I would often get comments wondering how I could be 'comfortable' wearing so many colours at once. A particular outfit which I wore at university comes to mind: </p> <p>~ Medium bubblegum pink long cardigan<br /> ~ Saffron orangey yellow scarf<br /> ~ Pale baby blue tank top<br /> ~ Cobalt blue bracelet<br /> ~ Off-white jeans </p> <p>I still like mixing 'unusual' (read: non neutral) colours in my outfits to this day, but I've 'calmed down' to usually 3 colours maximum at any one time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274531 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 23:59:45 +0000 YKK 2274531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>cat2&nbsp;<br />I remember there being some kind of conflict or other<br />the valley people were called vals I think. I din't know for sure if it was more of a gang type thing or just conflict of subcultures. Why were valley people at the beaches though? Did they just start hanging out there but take their valley culture with them?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274512 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 20:52:56 +0000 cat2 2274512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YKK: the hard core surfer guys chased the Valley intruders away. Style wise, the Valley was really different, more commercial. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274509 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 20:35:29 +0000 rachylou 2274509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do personally like trying to normalise the ancient. To wear things that would be costumes as not-costumes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274504 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 20:12:44 +0000 YKK 2274504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cat2, so cal here too, wish I would have been in LA and that whole thing. Unfortunately I was stuck in Barstow which if anyone knows anything about is like a post apocalyptic horror. It's a good place to be from (as in you are no longer there) but embarrassing to have been.&nbsp; So wasn't there some kind of thing with valley girls vs surfer girls back then?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274494 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 19:29:03 +0000 cat2 2274494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So Cal surfer girl cira late 80s: we went to school in bikinis covered by tanks from the baby aisle and ditsy print wrap skirts, and wore rainbow stripe flatform flip flops. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274492 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 18:49:51 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2274492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Never would have dreamed up a crazy outfit when I was young. Always strove to de-emphasize my appearance, didn’t realize I was pretty ok looking, never wanted to hear anyone comment on my physicality. It’s only now that I’m realizing that I looked ok then, and have nothing to hide now. I’m post menopause and enjoying my body/appearance for the first time ever.<br /> Crazy outfits now though, idk. I tend to want to push the envelope, try new-to-me things like crop tops, but in ways I can actually wear without feeling “out there”. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274490 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 18:18:51 +0000 Lana 2274490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No I’m not a scene kid, but I think a subculture of Burning Man could be related to Scene because of the emphasis on music specifically Dub Step when I attended. We always went to see the art installations which are out of this world! There are people who go for the music, art, free expression, community, alternative experimental city structure and sharing economy, etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274482 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 17:39:33 +0000 rachylou 2274482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok. Now that is super interesting put that way, Lana. Are you a scene kid then? I’ve never considered Burning Man scene. But maybe it is? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274476 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 17:16:34 +0000 Lana 2274476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Burning Man 2016 (first pic) &nbsp;and 2012 (pic 2 is the Billion Bunny March)! &nbsp;Hee hee&nbsp;<br />I have been a few times, but in 2016 I went with a friend who was really into the outfits and we set up a wardrobe tent with racks and all sorts of crazy items to wear.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274369 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 07:58:44 +0000 YKK 2274369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Emo was more popular than Scene I think but Scene is still a thing and the way it kind of plays off of Emo is what I find fascinating about it I guess. Neither one is exactly my style but I had that longish Emo forelock for a long time over one eye and I do wear a lot of black. That's about as close as I ever got to either of those styles though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274364 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 07:26:44 +0000 rachylou 2274364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s kinda interesting. I know lots with a sort of scene look, and listening to the music and all, but it’s just that I’ve never heard anyone call anyone that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274363 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 07:18:14 +0000 YKK 2274363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looked at a few articles , they all kind of read like this one.&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.wikihow.com/Know-the-Difference-Between-Emo-and-Scene">https://www.wikihow.com/Know-t.....-and-Scene</a><br />I still say emo was always black hair but scene kids would have theirs purple or orange or something but in a similar style, same with the clothing. Scene was always bright colors and emo was kind of goth looking all black with some white or grey.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274360 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 07:02:32 +0000 rachylou 2274360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That may be it. Your hair may be in pink pony tails and you may be wearing a My Little Pony tee, but someone will still<br /> call you emo or goth. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274358 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 06:20:54 +0000 YKK 2274358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My understanding of it is that it was basically Emo with bright colors.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274351 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 05:33:08 +0000 rachylou 2274351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My question is: Is Scene a real thing? I’m not sure it landed, if you know what I mean. Like it only exists in virtual space. Someone can be *so emo*, but no one is *so scene.* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/youre-craziest-outfit-that-you-dreamed-up#post-2274333 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 02:44:54 +0000 YKK 2274333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It could be when you were a teen or in your 20's etc. I'm thinking of all those insane trends such as Goth or Emo or Scene or further back than that even. All those well known styles came from some where, probably from one teenager with an idea that caught on. We will never know who teenager prime was but who ever he was he created a true sensation. What I'm interested in is sensations that might have been or perhaps even were, who knows? Anyway if you have anything I'd like to see or read about it.&nbsp; </p>
