Does dressing 'Preppy' make me vain?

[®ª†]

I know I'm a bit vain .... everyone is in a way (otherwise we wouldn't use mirrors.

Anywho, my friends say that I come across as being vain by dressing preppy. I don't consider it dressing preppy as much as dressing well. I get most of my clothes from Hollister (I like the look). The only thing I'm worried about is whether or not this is a turn off to girls ... What do girls usually think of a well-dressed guy?

"oooh ... he's dressed so nicely. He must be an ass"

or

"oooh ... I like what he's wearing. He looks good"

I don't think so. I think clothes are fucking clothes, they cover naked flesh. Wtf.

Dressing preppy does not make you vain. I myself have gone through many phases in which i've worn whatever (middle school), more baggy pants and band t-shirts (high school), wore whatever was semi clean (college), and i'm slowly morphing my wardrobe into a 'dress well' attitude- getting some nice long and short sleeved button up shirts, nice khakis/ jeans , and some nice boots, snakeskin justin cowboy boots are nice heh. When your out around town you'll be looking good, feeling good, and the people around you will see that you look respectable and approachable.

no way jose, love it! as long as you don't look better than me

btw it's not preppy, it's the grooming that matters, the fact that you care, and that you are not a SLOB!

If that's you in your avatar, it'll be impossible for me to look better than you
(flirting online is sooo lame)

Anywho ... I do put in a good amount of effort into looking my best.

Kinda on a random note .... girls seem to comment more on my industrial piercing in my ear than the way I dress. They're all like "oooh, I like your piercing" or "I'm going to get one just like that ... it looks nice"

Maybe I should get more piercings. :

My usual attire consists of khaki colored cargo pants, jeans (somewhat fitted), and button up (I say up, not down ... I'm an optimist) shirts.
