O__O;

I made my first (and favorite) pair out of some socks. Talk about designer.

Wow.

Melanie said...

I'm sure you could make it better then they could ever think it.

Orrrr, you could totally throw it old school and go into dior, guns a'balzin' with Billy the kid at your side, and hold them up. That's always an option. Although you'd have to get through security first.

just cut some holes in wooly socks, sweetie.

What so you're ditching your old blog to write here? Fineeeee Peturrrr.
I'm only joking ;)
Any update, no matter where, is good

Dior arm warmers. The two things just don't seem to go together in my head.

My black wooly arm warmers are one of my favourite things in winter. They were cheap as chips from Sportsgirl, but i love them to bits.

um...target? walmart? some little shop in north park? how much are these dior arm warmers? good GOD. probably my biweekly salary i'm guessing. ;)

They're stunning.

Maybe find someone whom can track them down for you? You must be able to order them in. I know you can order in current collection handbags at the Dior store here so I don't see why not arm warmers? Unless it's a limited collection then 12 is probably realistic sadly.

don't you have any old relative that can knit maybe they can do a pair for you and at the same time ad your personal stile to them.
I've two pairs that my grandma did for me.

when i think of arm warmers....dior arm warmers at that, the first word i think of wouldn't be "insane". i can't decide if your over-use of that word either intrigues, bothers or frightens me, monsieur wentz.

o_o wow...must cost an arm and a leg

*deadpan*


ohhh bad pun.

I got these mega cool arm warmers from Primark and there black and pink striped and oh so fluffy and wooly. I had to cut a little thumb hole in them so I can use them at college while were outside doing pratcial work. Yeah you try doing physics experements to try and calculate the speed of sound in -2C when everyone fucking knows it anyway! Arm warmers saved my life. *nodnod* VIVA LA ARMWARMERS! Thats the real shit there.

don't forget about the others, i kinda like it when you get all angsty and post future lyrics and shit for us on your other blog.

p.s. listen to everyone and use cut out socks--you could start a new fad.

love.

Jennifer said...

cancel the other comment, i figured it out. there's a pattern developing here. you are taking pop culture things that affect you and using this blog to comment on them. which, in turn, means that you'll (most likey) still be updating the others.

panic attack over.
back to your regularly scheduled program.

love, man, love.

Anonymous said...

Well at least 12 would be an even number of arms.

Haha, I just saw the suggestion that you hold up the Dior store. Now, that would be an interesting option.

love.

Anonymous said...

Dude. Just go to Claire's Accessories and buy a pair of kids' legwarmers.

A Life Time Away. said...

Urban Outfitters has really good pairs of those, if you dont find the ones you want. But why would you need them in California?

grey.skies.dark.lies said...

niiice :]
but don't talk about arm warmers, I'm freezing... haha it's like 60 degrees and I'm cold :D

limbic mom said...

Screw Dior! What is Clandestine's version gonna look like?

Anonymous said...

Beduss said...

if i could afford them, id buy them
But for now, i guess ill have to make do with cutting holes in socks or whatever.
And wow, the updates? 3 times a day or something?

Beduss said...

And everytime i see la written like that i always say 'la' instead of 'el-ay'
And how much are these then?

pete, this blog idea is awesome becos it separates you from the fob site, like you're here, just an ordinary boy writing stuff in between "shits" and "motherfuckers." maybe most of the celebs today are just ordinary on the inside. it's just the signature clothes, right? :)

naw, im not here to tell you where you could buy those warmers. but im here to say im proud of this blog tho. :)

il keep checking back on you.

I would never be able to affored anything dior on the salary of nothing and the allowance of nothing...Collecting change from the couches doesn't quite make you rich sadly...it does let me buy a nice pair from target thought :]

They sell arm warmers of all sorts at Hot Topic, kiddo.

Anonymous said...

haha only 12. good luck finding them.

Anonymous said...

oh wow. those look like the comfiest things ever. too bad I probably couldn't afford it, or I'd be combing the globe for them. maybe I could make my own? hmm. it's a thought. I hope you're successful in finding a pair. :)

M said...

They must be really expensive... I'll cut some socks BD Have a nice day Pete ;)

Anonymous said...

Ohh I bought a pretty and colorful pair in a little store ^^
But my arms wamers are not Dior.
Too bad, huh?

Anonymous said...

I saw them in a shop in Antwerp, but I didn't by them because they were a little too expensive :p

Anonymous said...

Stacy said...

I have to say I think most designer clothes are overated, but these look pretty nice.

Too much money for me though, I'll just stick to my favorite band tees and jeans, thanks.

Those look like they should be on my hands right now. How rude.


And no, not 12. Just three. Two of those three were for display purposes only.

this reminds me of how my friend got me a Prada bracelet that they only made like two of, I feel so special. I like to think that Lindsay Lohan has the other one lol.

diamond girl said...

lol fcuk that

i knitted my own with bright green yarn.

but those are still really nice.

melanie said...

Aw, sorry they're sold out. I'm sure you'll manage to get a pair someday.

And if not, just design your own. They're probably end up way better anyway.

Or take up knitting. I can totally see you knitting between shows and stuff. Very rock'n'roll <3

Pfft, you're fashion obsessed, Peter.
but that's okay.
I am too.
The difference?
I'm not rich enough to afford name brand stuff like that.
"Good God, just go to a garage sale" is what my mother would say =]
Have a nice day.

This reads more like a magazine adds than a journal..

How depressing.

please, keep all fashion statements for trends and runways.
paint something worth seeing with your words and intentions..

I think arm warmers fall in the same line as leg warmers, pretty much useless

HardCandy said...

I also wanted to say in my Q today, but totally forgot...

I was at work today, cleaning up the PSP game section, and I put a game on the shelf.

And for a second I thought I was staring at a picture of you.

Dior arm warmers.

Awesome, yet insane.
Arm warmers are all over the place, darling. :] Just not the Dior one, I guess. :) Good luck with finding that anyway. It's pretty. :D

It'll look hot on you. ;)

inthesky said...

ah pete

maybe you'll have to make do with a replica pair?

or just go ask Ryan. That guy deals in gloves. I bet hes got some kinda loyalty card for them. or gets first refusal.

dude, seriously, knit your own. or, you know, if you're too cool to learn to knit have someone do it for you. surely someone knows how, ask Andy? kidding, really.

Dude, it looks like something Ryan Ross would wear. Or would have worn a year ago. Thumbs up.

melanie said...

Want to know a secret? I'm about to go to bed, and I thought I'd check here one last time today to see if you updated... And you haven't (yet..? It could be 'cause of time zones.) Either way, I'm disappointed.

I wonder if that makes me at least a bit pathetic xD

*scrunches face* ick.

personally, if its going to cost me over $100 though, i'll just find some sweet old gloves in the house. our gloves are so old and torn in so many places, i think they could be considered antiques. which is why i call them vintage.

Anonymous said...

YOU'RE PETE WENTZ! Of course you can get a pair somehow! Just order a pair or something, even better yet, sell Clandestine arm warmers! :) P.s. It's ok, I think we all accidently speed sometimes... ;P

I saw arm warmers like that at Dior a couple of weeks ago.

It was weird because I live in Manila,Philippines and it's summer here almost all year round.hehehe.=D

Dior is one of my fav designers. I'm a poor college student, but I'll save my money up for Dior from time to time.

omg they have a pair almost just like those, they sell them at buckles. for real! i have a pair, i love them.

Anonymous said...

do you really need a pair of armwarmers from dior when you can get pretty much the same from h&m. you should read tim harford.

Unknown said...

i'm really cold right now.
i think i could use those.

Anonymous said...

haha of course he went hollywood, didn't you notice him ditching the socalled love of his life for a popstar with a nosejob who just so happened to get him publicity? didn't need dior arm warmers to get clued into that one.

Those are pretty amazing.
But they aren't your color.
I see you more in pink with multicolored polka dots.

oOo stylish! Most people never wear stuff like that it gets too hot here in Australia (even in winter) and for some reason I don't feel the cold much. I wish it snowed here sometimes...
