buzz bissingers gucci addiction

okay page 5 just ruined my entire day

I did not need a rundown on the many types of boning done by Buzz Bissinger

i read this at like 10 this morning, how much do you think i got done?

Hey Dan.

those boots are the lol

I just keep thinking "my wife would LOVE those boots" and then I remember Buzz Bissinger is wearing them and then my mind juxtaposes Buzz Bissinger in one of my wife's wrap dresses

sort of feeling like hey if buzz can wear those leggings maybe I can too then my brain shuts down

there is a guy who comes into the restaurant where i work, he's probably the same age as buzz give or take a few, and he usually wears little capris-length tights and little fur-trimmed high heeled booties with black polo shirts and a salt & pepper crew cut, and it actually works as a look.

it does help that he's petite and svelte and has excellent skin and has excellent poise and carriage

I am trying to imagine the circumstances where I would spend $600K on clothing over 3 years and the only scenario coming to mind is "clothing the kids at the orphanage"

which then leads to a mental image of a Tiny Tim analogue in Gucci leather leggings and one of my wife's wrap dresses and it's right back down the lol hole

I looked so hip that the owner of the club put us in the special VIP section overlooking the jammed dance floor.

I LOOKED SO HIP. THAT WAS THE REASON. HIPNESS.

quarantined because he wouldn't stop grinding a leather-cased erection up on other patrons iirc

he looked very hip. and gut. and moob.

I'm sorry that was uncalled for

the special VIP section is for rich people who order bottle service, ime, and a guy wearing gucci leather pants probably is going to think ordering bottle service is cool

I like the outfits where he just gives in and wears a baggy t-shirt for comfort

he doesn't seem to place much emphasis on shirts. maybe someone can find him some leather shirts.

this is insane

leather shirt http://www.theawl.com/2013/03/the-most-expensive-t-shirt-in-new-york-city-costs-91500-00

money is kind of the enemy of self-awareness isn't it. money and a shitty childhood.

and i guess just being horrible

i was looking at all the boards to see where the thread on ilx was about this

why are there not tons and tons of pictures? the clothes all sound so terrible! but i love this, i love that he buys the women's stuff too

it levels up on the crazy every page

i wonder what he got at band of outsiders though

lord how i have lold

major lols that this is on i love style

needs cross-links with Mens Trousers thread

realized that i am actually wearing a gucci sweater right now. it's very plain, no patterns or logos. i got it on consignment. i don't wear it all that much but it seemed like a good idea this morning

seriously buzz, you could spend that money at gucci on something that's not hideous.

i can't figure out who he looks like in that photo. like he should be a tag team partner for diamond dallas page?

omg yes

or an old rich dude Winger cover band

he def looks like hes in costume

ford fairlane meets medieval times

the whole thing is so weird why does he think rockers wear gucci why does he have the same old haircut why is he in his underwear at the radio station

why did somebody let him choose his underwear

the weirdest thing to me is that he isn't observant enough to pay attention to how clothes should fit. like whatever image he has in his head of whatever rocker dude is completely distorting what's right in front of his face, which is that his expensive clothes aren't cut in a way that suits him. and he's so observant about other things.

i'm always fascinated when i see people who wear really flashy clothing that doesn't fit. they seem so focused on what kind of person they think that clothing makes them, that they don't have much awareness of how it doesn't really fit them. but it's not bad, it makes life less boring

i like the way things steadily unravel. you see that picture of him on the second page, where he's transformed from a brooks brothers dude with a paunch to eurotrash nikki sixx for halloween and you think to yourself, well, there seems to be something deeper going on here. and then he's having trouble with his wife, and, oh wait, he's blowing guys but he's not gay, just wanted to give it a go, fair enough we've all been there, and now he's whipping a guy in a gimp suit at an s&m club and his teacher used to wear leather gloves when she disciplined him and now he's being choked out by a filipina hooker in wanchai and buying an ostrich boa.

love it, buzz.

yeah this revelation should get his personal gucci stylist fired

his personal gucci stylist probably (correctly) assumes it's his/her job to just make sure buzz is happy and has had enough drinks to keep spending $50K+ per visit.. i mean, going on the description of the kinds of things he likes, you can't style that into anything else than what you get

i think there is def something deeper going on than $22K jackets here

like detached from the excessive spending, if he feels his style is over the top euro nikki sixx, go on. the "shopping addiction" angle means he can write about all of it like it's destructive addictive behavior but all of it isn't - if he can't stop himself from buying those $22K jackets, that's not healthy, but there's no need to go to rehab for wanting to look fabulous. the trouble is, he likes bon jovi

buzz

what kind of commission u think the divine stylist gets

i met somebody who was a lowly greeter at LV and she said the proper salespeople can make 6 figures a year in commissions

i want to make it clear the guy's leading a bizarre possibly self destructive lifestyle but if he called me up and asked me if i was down for hitting up a "sex club" or whatever he calls it, drink a few bottles of cristal and get blowjobs together on a disinfectant-slick vinyl bench while watching some fucked up dutch bodybuilder couple violently simulating coitus on a fur dais... fuck it, i'd be down. you can still talk to the guy about college ball or whatever still, i assume, if it get too awkward.

Internet says small salery + 3% commision

why does he think rockers wear gucci

there's something freudian going on with dad's loafers if you ask me

@FakeJohnBolaris I think I should be allowed to own several guns due to my meds. This is America.

Despite the many lols this thread and Buzz's unimpeachably brilliant article have brought, it's hard to shake the impression that the guy is in the middle of an epic breakdown and I feel a little guilty for laughing so hard :(

Yeah. I'm armchair psychologizing but he seems a little manic, maybe?

I shouldn't say that, though, bc how could I know. I do get the impression that there's more than just midlife crisis here.

guys, he talks about going to sex clubs

there is clearly more than just midlife crisis here
