Alrighty then, it's easy to buy an outfit and look ok. but i want to see people's real style. wearing either an odd vest,Jacket, or denim jeans. what you would wear all day, and not an off the shelf style suit. show us all what you got. and be different.

here's the first pic. let the fun begin!


wearing Paul Smith, T.M Lewin, Banana Republic,Gap, and Democrata. and a hat.

bonus points for denim, odd, hat combo's. get to it!

Why all the rules against suits? Some of us wear these daily to work. As hard as it may be for you to believe, some people's real style involves wearing a suit. This is "Classic Menswear" not "Streetwear and Denim."

I also disagree that it is easy to just buy an outfit and look good. If that were true, I wouldn't see so many awful outfits every day. Why not let people post whatever type of outfit they want, and you can decide if it looks good or not.

I think you are on the wrong forum.

No hard feelings! Can't we just do top classic men's wear and bottom street wear and denim?

Don't get me wrong, as much as I love following the classic men's wear code, I love wearing denim with everything!!! I know I'm breaking rules but I just can't help myself!
