In my case it was speaking " proper" to them proper is the exact word they used. No they didn't mean the queens English but it was not using slang and pronouncing words fully etc...
I shouldn't have said never but rarely do I hear it for just not using slang. Everybody I've heard ever say somebody sounds white was because the person sounded white not because they didn't use slang and "pronounce" words fully. In your case most people, just say you were a lame or something like that but not sounding white unless they sounded white.

I can't say your lying and I won't because I wasn't there with you. I'll just say that's not the norm Ime and every time IRL somebody said that claim they also sounded like tiger woods on top of anything else.

The harder they try to be different, the bigger the cliche they become.

Man if something looks clean, it looks clean. Its obvious when someone is doing too much or trying to do too many colors and shyt. Subtlety is best IMO, no matter what style you're going for.

I just don't get the point of wearing an expensive ass belt if your entire ass is going to be showing. Whats the point of showing your ass anyways?

If your a guy then theres no reason to walk around looking like a peacock, leave the accessorizing to women. Men look better when their style is subtle and streamlined.

I refuse...to each his own but I can't get with a man in skinny jeans. Not only that, but men of a certain size should never sport the European look; they look like grown ass men stuffed in their clothes. Your nutz need to breathe!

We invented the tight pants/cardigan/Ascot/colorful patterned socks//fedora/horned rim glasses thing in the pre-Jazz era. The question is why white people feel entitled to our combinations of styling. Any white person who gives the side eye to a black man who listens to Jazz, Rock, Bebop, Electronica or wears 'hipster clothing" is ignorant and the OP is even more foolish for bringing this up as a subject of conversation. Outside of wild west cowboy shyt and southern belles most American styles, music and vernacular, NOT ENGLISH, but American english vernacular was either a black creation or a collab between whites and blacks. .

The 2010's is the GOAT fashion decade. fukk what a nikka think. Style has actually come back. nikkas ain't on that buying the fit off the mannaquin like they was back in the 90's and 2000's. shyt was bama. nikkas with no style who had money could just walk in the store and cop whatever they say in the window and be fresh. Now you gotta actually put shyt together, and that shows who has style and who doesnt. And with the Internet there really isn't a set lane now. nikkas is doing everything from the 20's to the 90's. Whatever your flavor is you can find that lane and hop in it one day and switch it up the next

THIS!! 2015 is a mixed of everything from 80s-90s to 2007 but clothes fit people bodies this time. You see women wearing daisy dukes (high waist) with Jordan or some other shyt but looking stylish

A lot of this isn't hipster stuff. I work around hipsters, which are just young white yuppies who go out of their way to look like they don't care how they dress. Hipsters just look unkempt, straight up. And of course I can't say shyt about how these guys dress because I run around looking like this

I don't know about that other shyt he's wearing but this outfit is simple and yet flyer than any of that corny shyt in the op. Simple is better for the most part. You nerds need to learn from this.
yes, and the hipsters up here in canada are now wearing tight versions of that outfit. Wearing all black sweats and a chain is some old dopeboy shyt and it is not fly, it's just old dopeboy shyt.

There's no such thing as a tight version of that outfit. If it's tight then it's a different outfit. There are no versions.

I just hate for us, to put ourselves in a box. You don't have to like it, it can be weird but it shouldn't be a black people dress ______. Sounds like that"you talk white" BS if you spoke proper.

I don't agree with clowning other because of their fashion but that's another thing. You and listen to Drake and Project Pat and wear suspenders :yeshrug:

From the article:

The little-known subculture of the Congo Sapeurs

This "subculture" is well-known in Central Africa and also in other Francophone African countries (in France and in Belgium too somewhat).
