LOL. My ex-girlfriend/more-than-a-friend is Indian too, but she doesn't really like her family and their expectations so I havn't really ever had to deal with it.

But I digress. Please don't tuck-in your polo shirt (or any shirts I've seen you wear for that matter), and maybe try cuffin' the jawnz?

good luck with indian girls :s

I'm guessing that you want it that way because all your fits have the same proportions, but with the pants pulled up like that and the chunky shoes, it makes your upper body look diminutive. Maybe pull the pants down (mmmhmmm) or gain some chemical-assisted muscle?

Yeah, me too, though I'm not sure about the vest. I like the vibe though.

it's not tucked in. pulled it up to show my flatmate the bad-taste-but-can-get-away-with-it-cos-they're-kmw selvedge coin pocket haha.

Is it too much stacking at the bottom or do you just think a cuff would add visual interest? if it's the former i'm thinking of getting them hemmed.

i see what you mean. definitely gonna hit the gym this semester. Not taking as many papers as last year and not working so much, so will do that. i think i'll get the jeans hemmed for a cleaner bottom cut which might help. in the mean time, i'll swap out the DBs for chucks.

 

[Kent Money]

Your arms seem relatively brawny, so I think losing the stacks will help add volume to the jeans towards the bottom a bit and it will be more proportionate with your upper body.

And the stacks just sorta look sloppy. Unless they settle really well (which they probably wont based on inseam length and the fact they are KMWs) I would hem them (or cuff to see if you like the look at first).

It's just my opinion that stacks generally look bad unless 1.) they get really compressed and 2.) they're relatively symmetrical. Then they look good.

I really liked both of socal's fits. boots included. the pants have the leather skirt attached to it? crazy

 

[XenoX101]

The second look is probably my favourite fit from SoCal.

 

[Asch]

Hendrix, just drop the pants an inch or two (once the waist stretches) and you'll look much better.

Agreed that SoCal is looking great. A huge transformation from his early SF days.

No wonder people thought the clothes looked stuffy. Clothes are always better looking in natural light, in a natural setting taken by someone who is good with a camera.

+1

The pants + boot tuck in the first outfit make it really great

**** you, those Lanvins are mad sexy

Good fit, something about the jeans strikes me as off though, thighs look disproportionately large

People own outerwear in Florida?

Kinky.... That fit with all the Balmain is good, regardless of how little regard I have for the stuff they've been putting out of late
