[QUOTE=Rusty100;42857486] do people wear ties under sweaters??? or does that just look strange in your picture either way i don't think the outfit will do to well in the dating scene[/QUOTE] people do, but not that tie/shirt/sweater combo. Drop the tie. Steel grey and shiny is not a very versatile or nice looking tie colour imo.

FULSv9: Get a haircut and lose the tie edition
anyone have any experience getting a shirt tailored? that off white twill western shirt is a little too long and loose for me (despite being a small slim fit, it's not nearly as slim fitting as the other levi's shirts i have). but im a bit cautious considering how much it costs and don't know any risks it might entail as far as shirt integrity is concerned. that sounds dumb, but you know what i mean. i don't want the shirt to get fucked up, just fit me better.
Okay so, I ditched the tie and dress shirt. Grabbed a black shirt with a sweater exactly like the Grey one, but blue. Getting a hair cut next week (I know it's way out of control) Anyone have suggestions for jeans? I'm hitting up the mall after class with some friends to shop so give me some suggestions, Thank fp
Don't wear black shirts generally.. Wear light pastel colours or white, and V-neck sweaters are gross, go with crew neck. for jeans get some slim/tapered indigo jeans
Am I the only person that doesn't like Indigo jeans? I have a pair, but generally stick to standard blue ones. [editline]14th November 2013[/editline] Actually I think the problem is I've tailored the rest of my wardrobe around light jeans rather than dark ones, so coupling the stuff I'd usually wear with indigo instead of light blue jeans looks a bit off

They are not going to screw up the article of clothing if they are professionals, anything you'd ask of them would be standard procedure. Some things can't be tailored but most shirts are pretty easily altered. There should be a ton of people locally that can do it. Even in my town there is a dozen people who do it since tailoring formal wear is good business. I'd just go find a local person who does alterations and bring it in and get and see if it's possible and get an estimate.

I don't actually even own a pair of light blue jeans, with grey and tans being the lightest.
