The What Are You Wearing Today (WAYWT) Discussion Thread, Part II

[notwithit]

@ridethecliche - I could go either way on the jacket. It's definitely cropped, probably on the shorter end of what's passable, but not unwearably so. There are a couple of issues bringing the whole fit down:

- The jacket seriously clashes with the rest of the fit. As other people said, untuck the shirt, swap it out for a tee, and sag the jeans. The shoes are fine, but you should probably uncuff the jeans. Something with a slimmer leg opening that stacks a little is going to help, and some jeans with some visible wear on them might be better than your most office-appropriate denim.

- The pose is a little stiff and robotic. Try standing more naturally. Take a few shots. Walk toward the camera if you have to. Look at someone like SvB - he looks natural, happy, relaxed. Most people probably would be in his situation, the snugness of his pants aside.

- The camera angle is throwing things way off. Shooting from below makes the jacket looked more cropped than it probably is, and it's most likely making your pants look like they're hiked up higher than they actually are. Try to shoot from chest level or above.

SF-Unapproved from head (literally) to toe.

For a split second I thought that was C4, but with a mustache. Now I just realize that you're his Spike to his Snoopy. Dope fit though.

Appreciate it. I tried this the other day. Jeans are black and I was wearing black chucks (need to buy white). Sink was in the way. Oh well.

Looks better, from what I can see of it. I tend to favor tees with a more relaxed neck opening and a little more body length, but that's pretty subjective. You might be better off wearing the jacket open like you are in this picture, since wearing it closed may emphasize the relatively cropped body length.

I think you're right. Schotts tend to flare a bit, so it'll look longer open. I'll probably keep an eye out for a longer one in my size and sell this once I buy one of those.

I honestly think a moto might be a better fit for lifestyle vs perfecto, but who knows. Maybe I'll end up with both potentially a brown moto?
Buying used so it's not stupid expensive.
