white spaghetti strap shirt, pink shorts, beaded belt, and white sandals (+jewelry)
What was your avatar last wearing?
black/raspberry low-cut top, black/raspberry camo pants, red elegant gemstone necklace, black uniform boots, and my black BE mercenary bandolier if I'm going to get hurt
How would you describe your real life fashion tendencies?
A bit eclectic.. I love the spaghetti strap shirts and embroidered jeans, and I recently let my mom and sister play Barbie with me, so I have a couple new pairs of white capris and pastel shirts. I like to be different but sexy: my fav outfit is a dark red spaghetti strap shirt and baggy black cargo pants

What are you wearing right now, (at this moment)?
About 5 minutes ago, (just got home from work), I was wearing tan bootcut khakis, white tee-shirt, gray sweatshirt, low-cut athletic socks and sneakers. (remodeling the store, I'm not getting dressed up to get dirty!). Now, I am in the same white tee-shirt and a pair of gray fleece pants. On a normal day at work I wear dress slacks, black leather casual shoes and a matching top.
What was your avatar last wearing?
Black and Red cloaked dress by A'srai (I can't make them yet!), black long uniform gloves, black sandals, emerald green stately necklace and gold colored bangles.
How would you describe your real life fashion tendencies?
I am not a slave to fashion, but for work I have to dress up in style. I work in a shoe store, dealing with the fashion industry on a day to day basis, I have to look presentable and knowledgable about fashion. On my days off and as soon as I get home, my fashion is whatever is comfortable. On a day off, I'm in jeans/jean shorts/boxer shorts and a tee shirt. As soon as I get off from work I switch to a teeshirt and boxer shorts or fleece pants.
I LOVE to shop. My usual must-hits at the mall include, Gap, Aeropostale, Express, Lerner, J-Crew and Hot Topic. I've been known to shop around for the best bargin, but I've also been known to spend $60 on a single pair of pants! (Hey, I'm 5'10", when I find something that fits that WON'T shrink and make me look like I'm waiting for a flood, I will buy it. :smileyvery-happy

What are you wearing right now, (at this moment)?
Blue Jeans and a Aqua/blue/tourqoise/purple/white/maroon tie dye longsleeve shirt.
What was your avatar last wearing?
Well she was in armor =p But clothing wise she wears White Ubese Pants and matching shirt with white lekku wrap. She has a little blue stately necklace, 2 sets of bangles and goes barefoot like any good islanding lass.
How would you describe your real life fashion tendencies?
Function before fashion. I refuse to subject myself to wearing uncomfortable clothes because I want to look "cool". I have a pair of grey/red sweats that are cut like cargo pants, are comfy as hell, and probably as ugly as sin.

Yes, it is a question that has crossed my mind before, and so I bring it to the forums for an answer. We are famous in every galaxy for having the most fashionable and eye-catching avatars, but how do we stack up in real life as compared to our computer-generated counterparts?
If you would all be so kind, reply with:

a white button up collared shirt with a black and brown criss-cross pattern, black cargo style baggy pants and black sketchers...
What was your avatar last wearing?
an all black heavy flightsuit, black long uniform gloves, black standard boots, bangles and the symbol bracelet thing.
How would you describe your real life fashion tendencies?
I generally have 2 different fashion tendencies, either button up shirts and black shoes and khaki pants or a more urban relaxed look with hoodies, white t-shirts, knit/skull caps and the like. (^_^)
sidenote: it seems like rl guys are outnumbered by girls in the tailor profession if this post is any indicator... guess I should try to hook up with some more tailors in game (^_^)

Well, just got out of the bubble bath afterfinishing the bar soooo.... white spaghetti strap tank, navy blue velour jumpsuit pants (erm, sorta J-Lo style - hey, it's my jammies, gimme a break)
What was your avatar last wearing?
Red loose dress, red lekku wrap, black sandals. My other tailor is wearing a bright purple light bustier, white comfortable slacks, white high quality boots.
How would you describe your real life fashion tendencies?
Simple, not too trendy, elegant or casual. I tend to err on the side of items that fit well and are cut well, in solid colors that aren't TOO freakishly bright. I figure if in 10 years I look at a picture of myself and say "good lord, what was I thinking" there is a problem.

What was your avatar last wearing?
My avatar is a light purple twi'lek (for today at least - she MID), she is currently dressed in a pale pink Fash. Pleated Skirt, Light Bustier, Dress Shoes. Wearing a Green necklace (not sure which one, was a present from the hubby, back around January - I've never taken it off).
How would you describe your real life fashion tendencies?
Eclectic. I will wear torn jeans one day, and a sun dress the next. I wear clothing by how I feel. This is why my guild knows they are to never expect me the same colour. I have changed clothes and skin colour in game as many as twenty times in one setting. I get bored easily, so IRL I wear only how I feel. I also shop at used clothing stores, and buy the greatest oldies clothing. I wear a lot of below the knee skirts and pants with vertical lines, cause I'm short

I am definately not the most "fashionable" of people in RL - been happily wearing the clothes I like regardless of fashion swings for the past decade and a half. True, with the "Nu Metal" craze, the "casual goth" look did flourish in the mainstream briefly, but with only two years to go until 30, I don't really think anyone's going to mistake me for a Nu Metal fan.
What are you wearing right now, (at this moment)?
Black combats ("Cargo pants" to you Americans out there") and a black t-shirt with an inflamitory Vesace-style sloganon the front and "Anti-fashion action: don't believe the hype" on the back. (Oh, the irony)
What was your avatar last wearing?
Desert crawlers, muscle t-shirt and short vest in light beige with brown detail, brown sandals, brown and beige gemstone crest. I thought I'd wear something appropriate for the climate on Lok for acouple of days.
How would you describe your real life fashion tendencies?
If you're talking about high-street or "mainstream" fashion; I refuse to take part in it at all... getting me to wear non-inflamitory t-shirts at work has become a full-time job for my boss. Wait til I walk into work in two weeks with my aluminium braids...
Within the metal community; I don't go extreme enough for the thrash fans, don't take myself anywhere near seriously enough for the goths and only wear armour/cyberwear when actually dancing. So, again, I wear what I like to wear and fashion be damned.
Quite how I got to be a master tailor escapes me, but I'm enjoying every minute of it and get a lot of compliments on my design, and very few customers don't become regulars.
