t almost, but not completely random
Dirty wash seriously bugs. Ug-lee. And yet I have actually purchased dirty wash jeans within the last month -- not for myself, but for Emmett, and not for the dirty wash but because they had double-thick denim at the knees, and this is a kid who's shredded the knees of his jeans literally within minutes of taking the tags off. So I held my nose and bought the dirty wash jeans for him, and...
...when he wears them, he looks cuter than hell. I cannot account for it. I've also noticed that the whole pants very low/undies showing above the beltline thing, which makes me want to kill kill kill when I see a grown person doing it, looks so unbearably adorable on Emmett as to reduce me to a glurbling puddle of meeps. I feel ethically compromised. I'm not even a blood parent, yet affection is making me turn a blind eye to his fashion crimes.

The other day, one of them asked me where I found all of my 'So hot!' reproduction Victorian blouses, because she wanted some.
Oh, ew. Just... ew. Now I want to make you a parasol with a sword hidden in the handle.
What's the definition of dirty wash?
I was surprised to see the locally faded jean trend hadn't disappeared by now. It's muted from when it drove me bugfuck (or I have been partially assimilated), but
guys
are wearing it now. Regular run of the mill guy jeans. Also something in the dyeing that emphasises the vertical weave.
Are either of those things dirty wash?
Also, where did black jeans go. I wanted a pair.
At least the my-pussy-has-whiskers jean trend is safely dead.
(Knock on wood.)
What's the definition of dirty wash?
Denim where it looks like all the faded areas have been vigorously ground in the dirt, so instead of a faded light blue, those areas are a pale dirt brown/tan/mud color.

Ooh, yes please!
What's the definition of dirty wash?
It's when the fibers in the denim that are usually white are tan or beige. (I think it's sometimes an actual wash, sometimes done with the threads themselves.)
Aha. I think I do not like dirty wash, but I think I have also been spared much of it.
Question: Pick one -- barefoot, wet, or bespectacled?
That's a tricky one, ita. Maybe best of? Otherwise I'd go with bespectacled, since he's not all that wet, and he is barefoot, but that's not really the focus of the picture. It's not like you can really tell much about his feet besides the fact that he's not wearing shoes, in other words.
So... bespectacled.
ETA: Ha. Robin beat me. But only because I took the time to come up with reasons.
I'd say barefoot. The sunglasses totally hide his eyes, and he's not really that wet.
ita, you might want to TiVo ET tonight to hear Orlando Bloom repeatedly say "I'm eating goat." However, he was telling a story where he's supposed to be eating lamb, so he wasn't thrilled about it.
