I like them too, but in a more limited range of fits/cuts than indigo jeans. They look a little bizarre and are more difficult to pull off when they're very loose or very tight, as well as when they have a pronounced bootcut or taper. ...

The margin on regular-line sneakers is ridiculous enough, given the cheap materials and labor costs, which makes the markup on designer versions just seem all the more mind-boggling. That said, rach2jlc's JS Pumas look quite nice.

Actually, I wasn't thinking of this particular outfit when I ordered - I ended up choosing Jester because I think the color scheme is one of the most versatile out of all of Jay's designs. I also want to make sure of the fit before I...

Definitely baggy jeans are more "democratic" in that more people can look good in them. They also have the advantage of pairing well with both fitted and looser tops. The skinny jean-loose top combination is tricky and tends...

Thanks for the props and the points, guys. I agree a contrasting-color shirt is better than a matching one in this case - while the outfit was supposed to be military-influenced, it's still not supposed to be literally a uniform. I'm...

Depends on the maker. I usually wear a large for clothing from brands/designers known for fitted cuts (e.g. AA or Costume National), and a medium for others (e.g. Polo). I would have expected Yoko D to fall into the former category. ...

I'm a size 40 chest, and I recall being disappointed with the fit of this blazer in size large. It was not remarkably slim, but what really annoyed me was how low the armholes were set. That sort of cut may be appropriate and expected...
