Theme WAYWT - Dress like your dad.

Yesssssss

He's a good sport. And he knew he was getting his picture taken so I think he dressed up a bit. I wore my Merrill hiking boots to match his but he upscaled to his asics that day.

Also I'm cheating because I'm wearing his flannel. It is one of his oldest flannels. 10+ years old. He gets 1-2 new flannels from Lands End every year for xmas and has a closet full of them. Has been his uniform since I was a kid in the 80s. He is wearing one of his newer ones.

I'd have to wear an all orange jumpsuit.

Ha...Ha.....:(

I did a few since they were so simple. Past fashion statements included!

I think it says something about my dad and I, that I was able to find exactly what he would wear within my own closet. We even wear the same shoes.

Suggestion for future theme: First fit pic--older posters dig up their first fit pic and post that, along with a most recent one; new posters... post their first fit.

Not as fun as the others, but it'd be cool to see the changes in the old posters and it could help encourage lurkers to come out.

Oh man, my (retired) dad has returned to the clothing of his youth and now wears black skinny or straight-leg jeans with band t-shirts, leaning heavily toward the tie-dyed grateful dead variety.

I wish I was as cool as my dad.

I like to think of my dad's fashion in the past few years as casually handsome. The hat is his, I had to include it because he has a small collection of straw hats plus other hats.

I'm gonna come back with a pic later for reference.

Edit: This is the only picture I could find. He's wearing one of his many hats, but not his straw hat. He just really likes his hats...

I think I'm cheating a little bit.... http://imgur.com/Yn28UC6

Otherwise I would need some court classics, a fleece pullover with a zip neck, an old skateboarding tshirt, a baseball cap and faded costco jeans. My dad is... Not very stylish.

Wish I had a picture of my dad. I am amused that I have the elements to mimic his style. Here's me.

Aww, my dad is all the way back in the States :( And I'm pretty sure I don't have anything like his. But if I could do this, I'd be wearing khaki shorts, a solid polo shirt, and cringey white tennis shoes.

I miss my dad.

This is my interpretation of my father.

Edit: lol this was my dad's t-shirt he got in Australia in the early 80's. If I wanted to go full-out I would have worn tie-dye spandex shorts and brown loafers... but no.

Late to the party!

To be honest, the person that has my dad's style on lockdown is my son :)

Oh man, I need to grab some carhartt overalls! I loved my dad's flannel phase when I was in high school but now he's gone even more outdoorsy and I can't keep up :(

He's gone away so I actually raided his closet a little.

Work Dad. I bought him this shirt. L\Color looks great on him. I might "borrow" that cardigan cause it's mega comfy.

Vintage Dad. I pilfered this jacket off of him in high school. He wore it when he was in high school too.

I would have had to mow the lawn for three summers in the same pair of white sneakers to achieve his casual footwear so I figured that I'd let that bit slide!

Plain Hanes crew neck sweatshirts, medium wash jeans and brown boots?

This is already what I wear to work most days! Guess he and I are more alike than I thought.

this is my first post. be gentle

I just told my dad to take off his shirt and took this picture

Chinos and a crew neck sweatshirt with a pithy saying or a picture of a fish? I do not own these things. Nor do I have tall white socks to pair with shorts and sandals.

I'd have to wear a polo shirt, braided leather belt, and khakis... ...which was my work uniform last summer. Not going back. Alternatively, a tucked in T-shirt, belt, and blue jeans.
