[QUOTE=gerbe1;45551424]Thank you! You have a lot of ties. Most likely it is I'll fitting. It's difficult to find things that fit me properly and so when I found one that fit me as well as this does I bought it. Also because I like it. It was a spur of the moment thing. I had actually left the store but went back in and bought it (after getting a further $25 off the already half price price. I am not fond of my tie either. I am in a position that I am too small for men's and too big for kids sizes. So the shirt in the last two is actually already tailored. It was a lot more baggy. Anyway this is exactly what I was looking for. I generally agree with most of what you said about fit and had my suspicions before I posted. I feel like it's not so bad I can't pull it off though it's only a temporary solution. Is there a guideline or a video that shows how to see if a blazer fits?[/QUOTE] I think this is a decent infographic when it comes to that.

[url]http://bananarepublic.gap.com/?[/url] - pretty popular blazers and dress shirts, have only tried like one blazer before (awesome quality for the price). [url]http://us.suitsupply.com/en_US/home[/url] - entry-level suits and blazers, a bit more on the expensive side, but totally worth it. [url]https://www.jcrew.com/index.jsp[/url] - basically nice everything, their dress shirts are pretty great (they run smaller than other dress shirts in my experience) also, if it's too expensive, there's always JCF. [url]http://www.brooksbrothers.com/[/url] - a loved brand by a lot of people, these guys have awesome dress shirts. never tried their jackets, but I'm guessing the quality is superb. also, grasp has the right idea. a navy or grey blazer will be much more versatile than your (black?) jacket. that, combined with a white dress shirt, some slim dark jeans/chinos and oxfords, will look simple but incredible.

[IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1482927/10595777_4466551917213_1657431207_n.jpg[/IMG] got my daltons so pretty
In case Grasp and Omilinon are interested the Jacket is like charcoal black (?) or something but when I first got it it looked dark navy blue so I thought I did have a blue one for a while? :v: lessons in checking the lighting of the store I guess. Or my eyes. And yeah I think it's a little too small for me. I still like it so I guess that's my pain to bear when I wear it.
Woah how much were those daltons? They look great

I don't think anyone would really care about it in where you're working. also, if you ever need any inspiration for what to wear, follow [URL="http://instagram.com/wideeyestwblog"]this guy's instagram[/URL]. I've met him a couple of times when I was riding the grand state. his fits are always spot-on.
Bit of a weird question. What's a good casual way to lace up vans? should I cross them over or do a bar lace or what?
cross them or youll have waaay too much lace left

[QUOTE=redBadger;45565771]so rusty's boots are okay but mine aren't lol okay[/QUOTE] have you seen a single person wearing cowboy boots in the last twenty years who wasn't later convicted for molesting a farm animal or shooting someone
[QUOTE=Zar;45566032]these are even nicer. are you wearing socks though. doesnt it get uncomfortable without[/QUOTE] liner socks
[QUOTE=zerosix;45566110]liner socks[/QUOTE] i use those, i guess i pull them up too far accidentally. too used to regular socks.
[QUOTE=Cone;45566077]have you seen a single person wearing cowboy boots in the last twenty years who wasn't later convicted for molesting a farm animal or shooting someone[/QUOTE] probably not in your country.

can I at least ask whats so bad about with a serious response. I personally see nothing wrong with it
ohhhhh those are redbadgers boots. noty [editline]1st August 2014[/editline] maybe you can pull it off redbadger. i mostly just dont like to wear them, i just want something light most of the time
redbadger those boots are horrible
[QUOTE=redBadger;45566214]can I at least ask whats so bad about with a serious response. I personally see nothing wrong with it[/QUOTE] the studs make it look really ugly. brogues like rusty's are accepted because without the patterns they would be completely dull and awkward-looking, but those boots go too far in the other direction and just put thing all over the place, so they wind up looking ridiculously gaudy and tacky. also the heels are angled weirdly in a way that makes me think of high-heels so that's not really helping things [editline]1st August[/editline] also although you might not yourself, the kind of person who wears cowboy boots is 99% of the time the same kind of person who wears a cowboy hat. pay some degree of thought to this
[QUOTE=redBadger;45566214]can I at least ask whats so bad about with a serious response. I personally see nothing wrong with it[/QUOTE] tbh, if you really want to, you can try and pull them off. however: 1. that boot design is waaay too old-fashioned. there's barely anything you can make those boots work with, unless it involves a cowboy hat and lightwashed denim shirt. 2. the toe cap (and the whole toe box for that matter) looks like it was pierced by a metric fuckton of needles. 3. the welt is very strange, almost looks rhinestone-like from a distance 4. how do you even put them on but, I can't force you to not wear em'. just saying, they're not very tasteful boots in my opinion.
