If you're gonna wear a cardigan unbuttoned and keep things loose, the shirt underneath should be the same way. Do it up again and you're much better off. Bottom half is much improved though!
The solid fit on the jeans really stands out now as well.

^ no tuck is better, but the jeans aren't all that flattering, the colours are drab (black jeans (?) + brown cardi?), the t-shirt doesn't look special at all — it looks like a basic undershirt.

I think better photography could help in the short term, but yah, it just isn't special texturally or in terms of colour. it's flat and drab imo, and not really flattering to your build.

Thanks again for the feedback. I'm planning on losing weight over the summer anyway (for swimsuit season). JD, how did you do it?

Earnest, no hate but I think the fit of your jeans is way off. They definitely need to be looser in the thighs, but maybe just looser all around. A lot of guys here seem to have this weird thing going on where they buy raw denim that's straight cut or slightly tapered but tight in the thighs and it just looks weird every time. If any part of it fits tight, I think they rest should also be that way. The thing is, your pants look pretty tapered. Getting that kind of skinny silhouette right isn't about how tight they fit, but how much they slim from the knee down. Sagging them might help, but I dunno.

Stock photo, but I did wear a tee with a larger neck opening this time, as suggested before. It looked a bit better. 0 for 3
