Happy Thanksgiving, SF. Here's another attempt at pulling off a casual look - hoping to get the hang of it some day...

Really? The jacket looks to end at the SF-approved middle of his palms.


You may be correct. I just checked some of my jackets (suit and blazer) and
they come down to my thumb. And I have longish arms for my height. On this example
it could be the pocket placement that makes it look short to me.

Do not like- your stuff over in SW&D is much better. I like the pants, the cardigan needs a jacket, but not that jacket.

Happy thanksgiving day after.

Not a fan of this. You look like my grandfather. Objectively, the pants sit too low, the cuff looks weird, the sweater is shapeless, the shirt's sleeves are too short and the belt is too bright drawing too much attention to itself while peeking through the cardigan. Sorry, but I just don't get this look on you.

(Yes, trou need an iron.)​


I like this. I'm impartial to the jacket, I neither like it nor dislike it. I wouldn't wear one like that, but good job if you did. The rest is very nice and I particularly like the pants.

First post on SF.

Yesterday:


Probably one of the last times I'll wear these shoes, they had their best time.
Pants probably too skinny and v-neck too small?

Today:



Possible reactions: pants too skinny and shoes too pointy...

They are. Pic must be a little deceiving, no diff fit to any of my other walts.

Pants look fine in both shots. Especially like the mehico fit. Also, hat does not look leprechauny in this shot. Looks great. You may even be wearing the same SC as you were when I made that statement before, but the solid color v neck and the solid (appearing) shirt really calm it down, in a good way.
