Attack! Attack! Attack!

"Finally, I have donned my Prince of Darkness suit, which is formal enough yet shows that I also have a darker side. This is comprised of a black velvet jacket, a black leather vest, a black suede dress shirt, another of my Grandfather’s silk ties, a black leather belt, black dress slacks, and black leather boots." He is going to get real hot, real fast. I don't even want to imagine how sweaty he's going to get wearing that.

Give the guy a break.
Although it is not my taste, Metal Heads often enough really care about their style. And to me pretty much everything is fine, as long as the wearer spends some time thinking about what he wears and why he wears it. And this guy is obviously thinking about it. The insight to wear shorter sleeves will follow later.

I don't quite understand the correlation between coffee and a new computer. Is this a SF inside joke?

Are those KC shoes, or Aldo?

That's true. However, unless the picture is very misleading, his description is inaccurate and the vest is gray. Which makes the look better than it would if it were black. With the dress shirt in another shade of gray rather than black, the top part of the outfit wouldn't look bad. Except for the fit, of course. To his credit, he's being true to his metalhead personality while suited up.

Also, in the second picture, he's wearing a blazer suit. Apparently he thinks that an odd jacket plus odd pants in a similar color makes a suit

I can just see him standing there happy as can be...in a sleeveless suit. As to the idea that thinking about how you dress is sufficient, I must respectfully disagree. Simply thinking about something doesn't imply that you have come to a correct answer. Admittedly, fashion is much more subjective than many things, but still, the gold leotard is always wrong.

Call me old fashioned but hey, he gets an A for effort in any case.
