There is one question I am constantly asking those around me:"Would you still be friends with me if I wear [insert ridiculous fashion trend here]?"
Example:
"Would you still be friends with me if I wear bellbottoms?"
"Would you still be friends with me if I wear suspenders?"
"Would you still be friends with me if I wear denim floral hotpants?"
I own all these items, by the way.
Here is a real excerpt from a gchat convo yesterday with my friend Debie. Just to illustrate my point:

Here is a real excerpt from a gchat convo yesterday with my friend Debie. Just to illustrate my point:
3:23 PM me: i went to zara yesterday
and i loved all the fall stuff...
would you still be friends with me if i wore a cape
3:24 PM Debie: they are in this season...
i could accept a capelet
me: i tried one on
i couldn't tell if it looked cool or homeless
Debie: that's a question you should never have to ask yourself
