Here's another shot. The sleeves are the appropriate length when I'm not leaning up against crap. The fit of the suit is fine when I'm standing normally.

I do, however, agree that the collar was too pointy for that look, and I've since switched to a more spread collar. Of all the critiques that was the only non-cheap shot. Hey, at least there was one, right?

You definitely look like crap.

How did you leave the house with those shoes on?

It's amazing how you guys do it and still believe yourselves so refined.

Styleforum is a great place to come to learn about brands and quality and options, but it isn't a place to come about actual style. Use the forum for what you can, for some people it's posting in threads about all the new stuff they bought on credit, for others, it's reading about what others bought, learning about these items and investigating based on their own taste.

There is a cord around your neck, and dropping down to your pocket.

Is there a monocle on the end?

Great look without the lacquer.



your knowledge in instruments is incredible .

but your taste/knowledege on footwear is educationable.

just a guess, you don't have a high percentage(which is really tricky) in good fitting shoes?
