T'is the season to treat yourself to ridic stuff. So Spaz just spent an entirely too large amount on a couple of polo shirts. Why? Because they are same designer/make/brand as both Connery!Bond and Craig!Bond have worn in their movie times (Plus they are super comfortable and nice and I live in polo shirts ( Read more... )

spaz needs to get a life

I have some of these awesome x-men hand made posters - here

I've bought a WW2 RAF coat just because I've played Jack so much, and a pocket stopwatch for TW in general!

I've also got James Potter's wand again I play him!

Also I have a habit of buying tops that remind me of characters. And lol for Sofia reminder recently I bought tights and some sloppy socks to go over them.

I could go on for ages about them!

Holy crap those x-men poster are beautiful! I want the Wolvie one sfm. xD

And yeeeeah, back in the olden days when I rped Jack, I was sosososo close to buying a WW2 RAF coat. I tried on loads. Never did get around to buying one though.

My thing definitely does seem to be buying clothing, even branded t-shirts. I have a Connery!Bond t-shirt actually. Nomnom.

I went mental in that store for Christmas presents, I even got Harry Potter ones, they look as good as the pictures when you are holding them!

I got mine off ebay, snagged it for £20 and I was so pleased with myself.

It's brilliant! I love seeing other people who do this!

Oh one more of my favourite things, is one of CATS the musical muses (turned into a human) insisting I own a coffee maker. I am hooked on the stuff now.

i STILL haven't tried Bond's signature vesper drink which is something i always want to do

but when i was flying back to the UK a few months ago? i was in the airport and ordered a double bourbon and soda because that is what bond always gets when he's at airports. i felt so suave xDD

I have a book of Potter-themed knits.

I knit stuff. :|

I haven't in a while 'cause I moved to another country, but I need to compile a list of fandom stuff that I want to knit. I have unorganized desires.

doubleoohbaby December 12 2011, 14:54:23 UTC
fff knitting stuff

i wish i could knit

or actually had the enthusiasm to learn

I WOULD KNIT SO MANY HIDEOUS JUMPERS ALWAYS

potter is pretty much the perfect canon for knits

It is, man.

A few of the patterns are taken from the movies, just stuff that the characters wear... Every movie that came out after I got that book, I was maybe partially watching it for the knits.

There are a lot.

I kinda think three-fingered gloves ought to be somewhere on my to-do list, as well.

oh man three-fingered gloves is the way forward

I bought two striped sweaters recently - one that looks a bit like a Sandile, and one that looks like the green striped shirt Sandman wears. And those were my reasons for buying them.

Also I have been running around looking for a light blue parka-style coat with white fluff so I can feel like Captain Cold.

Not going to take any fashion clues from Julian anytime soon though, he is the worst.

Yup this pretty much sums up me too. I go out of my way to buy things that remind me of characters i love.

I also bought a grey 3-piece suit because it makes me feel like the shit when I wear it cause it is so Bond-y. Also I needed a new suit for interviews so it was justified :|

Right? I need a new coat, so I figure I might as well try to look like a supervillain.

Also, that sounds like a rather classy suit.

Also, relevant to the conversation: fashion tips from comic strips.
