I was also wondering guys,

what do you think of all the bright colors AA offers? I think that they're great, but for some reason I find myself mostly sticking to the blacks and whites, and maybe some blues and yellows if I want to be a little more daring. I don't know if I'm just afraid to try out some color, but I just feel like I want pieces that I can wear with several other pieces, not just one piece.

I think i've been becoming too obsessed with clothes lately

I never shop at AA because it's so expensive! I grew up with parents that owned a promotional apparel business... I know I'm getting screwed when I buy something from there! Sucks, though, because they have the best selection of basics I've ever seen.
Do they have clearance events or anything like that? I'd have to travel a bit to go, but eh.

Of the times I've been there, AA has never had any sales

I always buy full price...the clothes are of good quality though, so I'm satisfied with what I've bought from there.

My latest AA outfit, tell me if you think it's a trainwreck!

http://www.americanapparel.net/morep...rsa0401_03.jpg

AS a tunic dress (nothing underneath, no leggings), with a gold lame rope belt tied at the waist, and one of those rambo-style headbands (haha not sure which one would go well...the gold lame rope belt would make a good headband but I'm already wearing it on my waist...maybe a white headband?) and some brown gladiator sandals, either knee-high or ankle length.

That shirt is kind of see through so I wear a long cami underneath it, and white boy shorts so in *case* I bend over or if the wind blows, I can be doing a Marilyn without worrying if my butt's popping out in a trashy manner.

OR I used to do this: replace the gladiator shoes with uggs and above the knee grey socks. I thought the combo was adorable...no compliments, but it definitely got stares o_O lol. Oh well. It's my style, deal with it or look away.

Oh, I got a skirt that's similar to the tulip skirt, it was on sale at BCBG. It's just as cute...but now i still want the melange skirt, this time in I think heather black or navy...

I really like their unisex cotton travel short too...

Def. prefer the corduroy...

I love how so many of the styles on the site are unisex!

You definitely need to go check it out in person. It's made in all sorts of different fabrics, some thicker, some thinner. So if you order it online you might get a thin fabric when you wanted thick. :C

Here is my most recent AA wishlist for all still interested! Feel free to post your stoo!

Cotton Spandex Jersey Bandeau Pencil Dress - Spring Break - American Apparel Online Store

Cotton Spandex Jersey Bandeau Pencil Dress in LIGHT PINK and CREME.

yum! the ways you can wear that dress are simply heaven. I plan to wear it all around town! The best part is that it can be both casual and dressy, depending on whether you dress it up or down.

I have too many black skirts. But I really want to get this bubble dress. I'd have to try it on, but does anyone suggest what color I could get it in without it being impossible to match?

I love how they put that bandeau bra with the teal skirt - adorable!

I am so tempted to try out the Le Sac Dress.

Le Sac Dress - Spring Break - American Apparel Online Store

again, one of those million-ways-to-wear type garments. Can you get any more bang for your buck??

Again, I still want the Melange skirt in NAVY or HEATHER BLACK.

I LOVE the way this shiney tube dress looks. I'd love to get it in gold or champagne luster. But I have waaay too much going out clothes. I can't control myself! lol.

OJ! I see you're back to this AAA thread

I think I'm falling deeply in<3 with the sac dress. What color should I get though? The only other thing about that is I don't know how i'd have the patience to figure out all those ways to put it together. Some of those styles look impossible. AA, why don't you have instruction manuals for your ways-to-wear pieces? You'd have many more happy customers if you just released one or two.

OMG! How are the melange skirts?? I still want to go buy one, I'm thinking of getting mine in heather grey (I tried on the navy one and it didn't look good on me) I need to lose a little weight before I think I can pull it off like how its shown on the website...but those skirts are absolute LOVE! They look so comfy and fabulous.
