Finding a decent pair of shorts for under $50 is proving to be obscenely hard.

Yeah they are I just dig hats with nice designs on them, I'll probably order the blue one sometime.

why didn't i look through all these sites before?
found the nike roshe run woven in black i've been looking for (but i already ordered the non-woven version) :(
Am I the only one that absolutely despises those poofy down-filled vests that seem to be so popular? Whenever I see somebody wearing one I can't help but think of Marty McFly and the 1980s.
E.G?
(Whatever they are they aren't popular here)
Most notable trend here is wearing maroon/burgundy
Oh, something popular I do despise is the twats that wear overly short shorts in pink pastel, what the fuck is that about
Cargo shorts will always be the worst clothing item for me
But those vests that scene ish people wear and neon vans/converse/osiris shoes are up there on the "I think I'm fashionable"
I always figured cargo shorts were generally accepted as "fashionable". I mean, at least compared to basketball shorts, which just about every guy wears.
I'm referring to these kinds of shorts:
[t]http://www.oldnavy.com/products/res/thumbimg/mens-linen-blend-cargo-shorts-10-1-2-craigs-castle.jpg[/t]
Take out the unused pockets and sure, but then I guess they wouldn't be cargo shorts anymore
But seriously, what's even the point of them, nobody even uses those pockets
If you think about it in the big picture they're just wasting fabric on them
It's gonna be my campaign, 'go green, don't wear cargo shorts'
They give the shorts a wider shape towards the bottom rather than be straight slim like most other shorts. Some people like that.
E: Thinking of buying a suit for prom and I'm thinking of going less conservative than last year when I just rented a tux. Trying to put something together and I'm thinking
Dark navy jacket

Light blue dress shirt

Dark brown shoes (darker than these)

And maybe a... black (?) vest? I want an odd vest to contrast the other two pieces. And then the green tie (something simple).
EE: Found something close online and edited the colors. Basically something like this? How does that look.

That's not how you buy a suit, mate.
Go to the tailor, tell him what you'd prefer and he'll tell you if it'll look good on you. You can't tell just by guessing - you have to actually wear the things.

Too dark and bland.

I don't have that kind of a budget. I'll be buying them from store, I usually find good fits. Never saw a point in a tailor tbh. Current plan is $200-$250 ($50 for shoes, $75 for blazer, $50 for pants, $25 for shirt, $15 for tie, $25 for vest)

Gotta wear a vest. It'll be a shade of gray probably lighter than the jacket and pants.

Uh, a store has tailors too. You don't buy a ready piece like regular clothing. 90% of the time, they have to make adjustments.
(Unless you meant your budget was like $100 for everything in which case disregard what I said completely and go with jeans and a button up)

Doesn't that cost more? I always thought I could just buy the stuff off the shelves, like from h&m or something for example. I always managed to find something that fits me well, I guess I'll go to a few stores and see how it works, though I'm really set on buy separates and not a full suit.
so my prom date has informed me that she is dressing softcore goth
to match her, I think I'm going as kinda rockabilly: black suit, white shirt, skinny tie.
I think im going to get some creepers to match
the only problem is that she's a bit shorter than me, so wearing platform shoes might make things awkward.

The adjustments are free with the suit. (or at least [I]should[/I] be)
Just go to a few stores and find whatever fits you well. It's practically impossible for someone here to guess what would look best on you.

I would consider converse more rockabilly than creepers.
