I'm actually a big fan of it and I generally think boot tucks look forced or simply aesthetically unappealing.

Loving the color of the jeans, too. And that BK bag. I need something like that.

There are three reasons I can think of that give the "SWD" Moo fit trouble. For one, several people have tried the washed out palette thing the last two weeks and most haven't pulled it off. It's hard to do something "most" have failed at. Also, next to nobody is wearing shorts anyway. If you try to be an early-shorts guy before visual fatigue sets it, the critique will be harsher. And finally, CUTOFFs with B.DOWN shirt is a jarring mix of formalities. If you want to wear shorts with a button down shirt, make the shorts clean and crisp - cleaner and crisper than the shirt is.


Interesting - thank you.

As for the heavy shirt, straight legs and boots - I did this last week and didn't receive much feedback here.

I think this one is pretty alright. But then, I would. Miles ahead of the shorts pic.

I'm echoing advice/observation made here at some point, but it's much more difficult to dress tonally than with contrast. It's also difficult to post a picture wearing shorts on SF and not get flak.

Plus, those Y-3 sneakers are everything that's wrong with baller sneakers and little that's right.

Unfortunately, no amount of gaudy Lanvin sneakers or $500 sweaters will fix your pathetically awkward physique or patently unappealing facial features. Alternatively, I suggest you invest in some dumbbells and a few rounds of plastic surgery.
