[QUOTE=Campin Carl;38579264]Okay, here's a challenge: How can a well-fed caucasian guy dress flashy enough to be easily distinguishable at something akin to a royal ball, yet not, and still classy enough to fit in?[/QUOTE]

Dress in a suit that fits you. Maybe wear a underneath. Be nice to people because thats more important than what you wear if you really want to leave a good impression

Wear a what?
As for being nice, I'm capable of that, I just suck at fashion.

I know you guys aren't really into denim jackets, but opinions on that one would be cool.

Charcoal suit, black tie, red dress shirt.
Worked well for me.

I don't like Etnies, so it's between the Emericas and Vans. Pretty much, would you rather have a gum sole or a black sole?

If you want you could just artificially fade the jacket by yourself. And i wouldnt really wear that sweater by itself.

c) who gives a fuck

"I don't like dropcrotch pants" was the gist of it, if I can get that across in four keystrokes there's no reason I shouldn't

You box my posts with fuck all reason noticeably often, obviously at some point I poked you in the eye in this thread and therefore I'm terribly terribly sorry

So could you get over it and stop being so uptight

I'm sure we'd get on fine if we tried

[CreativeName]

I need tips for small people. I'm 5'5" or 5'6" and I weigh about 105-110. I've realized most of my clothes are too baggy. Levi's skinnies are usually okay, unless they're the type with elastine in which case they actually are a "skinny" fit on me, which I like too. I'll add some pictures when it's not 2AM so you can sort of see what i'm trying to go for and what the problem is, but I'm having real trouble finding shirts that fit properly, especially the sleeves not hanging/jutting out. I'm also not 100% sure how pants are [i]supposed[/i] to be fitting-I wear 29x30s which bunch up around my ankles, but not much. again, will post pics later this morning or afternoon.

[zerotwelve]

yesterday I wore those jeans that I ruined, my new parka and some fingerless gloves, and while I was waiting outside of a shop for a friend after I had just took a phone call some guy walked past me and put 20p in a paper cup that just happened to be next to me

i wasn't particularly going for the "homeless" style but I know now not to wear those jeans or gloves again

Mako you have self righteousness issues. Getting rated doesn't account for anything; so why care so much?

Simply buy slim fitting shirts

I'd recommend American Apparel, since you sound pretty skinny too they'll probably have your size (they go as small as XXS I believe)
