Okay, you convinced me to do it. For the next week, Monday through Friday, I will post an outfit picture a day with outfit ideas suggested by you guys, here...→[More:]

Color is the obvus choice, but I was thinking various masculine archetypes to stretch in my and incoherent wardrobe..., super prep, guy in band, young executive, etc. Have at it!

Gangster, please.

Considering the post right after this, you could be a Closet Furry (it'd be fun to see how you interpret that).

or Die Hard Fan (not of the movies or batteries, but of a team that never wins a championship)

or Doctor Who Composite Regeneration (long scarf, fez, leather jacket, celery stalk in lapel...)

or Typical MeFite (or Composite MeFite, part cortex, part ColdChef, part PinkSuperhero)

Good luck.

I think you should dress as other members of metachat.

(on preview and reading the thread carefully I see foop suggested something similar upthread.)

Variations of David Bowie.

David Bowie was never a short fat celt except in that ine alternate universe.

You could be me as a kindergartener.

Bah Gentleman's Emporium stuff is pure costume outfits. Only good for photo or film, looks terrible in person.

No suggestions but I can't wait! Hurrah! I literally hopped up and down a few times.
