Just sayin'. Let's not start making fun of each other.

If you haven't had more DB unconstructed navy sports coats than you can stomach shoved in your throat, check out Tommy Ton's street pics from Pitti Uomo. Me, I've seen too many already to deal with this, it's like they're all wearing the same thing.

Oh I wasnt ripping, just reminded me of that image Aaron posted about Sams shirt in IRL Pics a few weeks back.

I find I look bad in wayfarers. Aviators are my go-to.

 

They are pretty badass :thumbup:

 

I might need some new jeans, my cheap ones aren't holding up so good. Need to save a bit of money up first though.

I noticed that Gilt sells selvedge Levi's 501s for $98 like once a week.

catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream

I know Esprit aren't the best brand in the world, but they are doing mid-season sales at the moment, so all their denim is going for cheap prices. Might be worth a look.

 

Generally, their clothes are slim fit, so factor that in.

Also, what's everyones opinions on white jeans? As Summer is approaching (not that you'd be able to tell in the UK) I'm contemplating getting a pair.

 

I'd probably also get a light-mid grey open cardigan (contemplating this: http://www.allsaints.com/men/knitwear/saya-cardigan/steel/mkk617-1180) to go with it. Shoes would be a pair of matte (as in, unfinished leather) chelsea boots in a dark-ish brown, as well as a belt to match the shoes.

 

So, any comments/concerns?

Bummer, if you'd posted this yesterday you could have bought a cardigan from Tretorn but the sale is over now... I'd go for a regular cardigan with buttons, not something super drapy. They come across as a bit feminine. Not sure about brown leather with white jeans, too; I usually wear my sand suede DBs or bright sneakers.

I have some other shoes I can wear, just I've fallen a bit in love with my boots. Of course, they're not exactly summer shoes, so not particularly practical.

 

Thanks for the advice, shall be buying some white jeans shortly. Have a few cardigans atm, so shall wait and see if I need another.

Before I head off to college my family is pitching in for a wardrobe, stressing on finally getting a nice pair of shoes that will hold up for a long time. I'm praying I can convince them to drop the money for these bad boys.

Adam, I'd go with #2 with white laces.

They look a little bit like Wolverine's 1000-Miles, but not quite streamlined enough... Hm.

That's what I figured, I was about to warn him Wolverine's boots aren't all on par in quality with the 1000 Miles model...

Alden Indy boots. Whatever you get, don't buy it at retail. Try ctrl+fing this guy's spreadsheets to see if there's anything you like:

I actually know a large amount of people who dress like "hipsters", and believe it or not, they can actually be very nice. Besides, I spy selvedge shorts.

I do not endorse your purchase, by the way.

Speaking of 1000 mile boots, I [bleep]ed mine up pretty bad at the foam party at some random club. Basically added a few years of wear and tear in just that one night. The soles are all roughed up and lost a lot of that nice brown color.

Live and learn.

fastortoise, the turntable watch you wanted is back on PLNDR.

I still think it's terrible, but it's back. It comes in a nice case, though. I prefer this one, personally:

Tried to find the cardigan, but to no avail. Couldn't even find one like it.

 

So, going for graphic tees. I apologise profusely for the myspace style pic - I didn't have time to get my friend to take the photo for me.

Any comments on what I could do to improve the outfit?

 

(I'm going to get the jeans shortened when I get back to my other house, since I can't do it myself).

Kinda looks weird with your belt half showing, probably should be under your shirt if it's not going to be tucked in. I don't really like the colour and shirt print with those jeans, maybe if they were dark jeans, but not white. The jeans looks a bit more formal, so I'd be inclined to wear a shirt with them. But that's me, so I probably wouldn't listen to that tbh.

a) Cardigan inspiration: Make sure it fits, unlike Terron's in the third picture (too long at the sleeves, general slouchy feel compared to the one his buddy on the left is wearing). Also, make sure it's close to your neck; that lighter style of cardigans is cool too.

b) Cuff your jeans.

c) Avoid graphic tees as much as possible; heck, I don't wear any visible t-shirts at all. Striped tees are okay, but they're hard to pull off. Only Pesko does it well.

d) I don't like chelsea boots. I think that's just me though.

 

Also, damn, this is the coolest polo ever:
