It's clearly meant to be a 6x2, but if you wanna be cool like that and do 6x1, I guess it's okay.

I think the jacket is too short and the collar (this is something that you have read it before) is not the best for you, it makes your neck too long and that effect it's not the best, that's what I think :) Ahh.. I like the shoes

Thanks for the advice about buttoning- someone mentioned something about angles, so I did what any normal man would do and immediately went to the company restroom to take photos of myself in the mirror.

noticed my collar was floating and fixed it between pictures :p


IMO for normal activities i would do the bottom button only.

If I was going to see the boss I would button both.

If i was going to impress a girl I would probably button both to start with so i looked real dapper and then ease into the bottom one only. :)

I think the blue in the tie is kinda ugly. It reminds me of bar/bat mitzvah wear.

I dont think the blue in your tie is ugly at all. It looks quite good as far as i am concerned. In fact if anything, you could have a slightly lighter tie to provide more contrast against your suit.

I like your outfit a lot Mister :)

I suppose people could pick it apart and say things like

Ooh, you have a windsor knot instead of a four in hand. And you could say: Oh! but I have a cut away collar, And I could say: your ties windsor knot fits perfectly into your cut away collar.

and so on...

But I wont, and i hope they wont!

'cos you look seriously good in your outfit. :D
