dr martens - stand for something @howtostandforsomething - Tumblr Blog

I feel like nothing I own goes with my docs. I usually wear a lot of polo shirts and converse, but I feel guilty whenever I see my docs because I never seem to wear them. I tried to replace my converse with the docs once but the outfit just felt wrong - like I was trying to merge different styles. The only time I actually feel confident wearing my docs is with this dark green (slytherin green?) dress I have. I've got the original 1460 black docs. Any tips? (I'm a girl btw)

I’m a girl too! I find that outfits of mine always look better when you can see the top of my black 1460s, I either roll my trousers so the tops of them are showing, tuck in skinny jeans or leggings, or wear tights and a skirt/dress! A couple of pairs of nice socks can also make all the difference!

What 'model' of Docs do you think would suit me best? I'm a guy, 17, 6'2" and skinny built, and tend to wear a lot of grey and black

Honestly, you could wear anything! 1460s are the classic, and work well with both skinny and baggy trousers, but there's also the 1461s, which I find are best if you roll up your trousers a couple of times. It entirely depends, however, on the style you want to put across, making sure that they're comfortable and fit with your intended look!
