Or vamping around in a cage while David Bowie and Catherine Deneuve watch, smoking?

No offense but this just makes you look like any other joe schmo on the street, ultimately sense in posting prob go unnoticed as you would walkin down the street. But im sure you'll have something better next time

no offense taken, mink...but, am i understanding the bolded part of your reply correctly?...are you saying that i shouldn't have posted my pic because my clothes made me unnoticeable?

i don't know...is that what style is about?...making yourself noticed?...i don't think so...i believe it's about expression, yes...but, some days (many days) i'd like to express myself only to those that want to hear it...so, i don't mind so much looking like joe shmoe...in fact, i sometimes relish in it...

it may not look like it, but i was saying a few things with my outfit, today...and, i felt compelled to post it because it felt so very non-sf, that i thought i'd add it for the sake of heterogeneity, if nothing else

^Here's another way to put it:

The outfit you posted is boring and unremarkable.
Nothing fits you right. Olive is not a good color for you, in my opinion.

Rye, that's one of the most natural, best fitting setups I've seen you in. I love the dash of colour in the nike logo.

SuperBobo,

What is the fit difference between LVC 501 37 and LVC 501 33? If difference is not in the fit, then what is the difference?

Tough crowd for the gaucho. I, for one, dig the jacket, although it might be a little big, and I don't see what's wrong with olive. The jeans and glasses look a little dated, it 's true. I also wouldn't discourage people from posting in WAYWT. OK, maybe kitonbrioni. No, I take that back, not even him/it. Edit: That may be my favorite fit from Augusto. Simple, everything fits great. I am backing off a little from my staunch stand against zip sweaters.

Bobo, what's going on with your sleeves here? Are those (wool?) cuffs part of the tenderloin jacket?

At least it gives us hope that he may once again post a picture of himself wearing his clothes.

Cheers for the prop's. I honestly find the outfit on the dull/easy route for a busy workday but thanks non-the less.

As for the Nikes I have a formula now. If you like "Hype Beasted" kicks but "didn't" want to look like every other Chinese Ricer Japanese wannabe in San Gabriel Valley circa 2002-2003 just buy them, keep them in a closet for 5 years and then break them out.
