Hey, you gotta tuck the ole saziche somewhere. Some guys just prefer to put it in the overcoat.

I picked up the suit at a "higher end" thrift store for $50. Its a DKNY suit which i'm sure is fused construction but it was cheap and I thought it fit pretty well. Is it worth paying for the alterations for it? The tie was picked up at a PRL outlet for $29 and the shirt was bought in a Charles Tyrwhitt 4 for 199 sale, but I had a groupon there so it ended up being 4 for $150. Shoes are Cole Haans also from the outlet. So from head to toe the outfit cost just a little over $200. I'm just starting off in the world of banking so for the time being I'm trying to look good on a budget. I'd love some feedback, I've already learned a lot from this forum, most of which will be better applied once I have more disposable income.

Thanks! Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)

there is a lot that is right with this, good color combo, pretty good fit too.

1. you should shorten your cuffs.

2. pull that tie knot a little tighter, and then pull the tie all the way up.

also, you may or may not know, but a lot of people put critiques in the "like" comment field. have a look if you have not seen them.

Navy blazer and gray slacks? I'll guard your security.

Nobody seems to wear yellow ties around here, so I doubt this will get much love. But hey, I threw in more than just my standard chest shot, so there's that.

I like that tie fine. I just think yellow can cross over into way-too-bright territory a lot faster than other colors.

I apologize in advance for the I-phone quality. This was Wednesday. I spend the day relaxing with friends, and then we ended up catching a drink.

When I was very young my dream was to be a Guardsman in the Coldstream Guards. When I was 4 my mom made me a replica uniform of a Coldstream Guardsman. I would stand at attention next to the bank when my mom would go to the ATM . That year I wrote (with my Mother's translation) a letter to the Queen stating it was my dream to serve the Crown at Buckingham Palace. The Queen never answered back.

LOL!

One old guy came walking down the stairs where I work with an old sports jacket on which was way too big for him. He looked like Groucho Marx. It was pretty funny.
