SVB, I am far from a "northern lights" hater, but this would have been better with lighter pants.

I've been hanging out on this thread for a while, but have never posted before. I'm a younger guy, and definitely lean towards the casual side of this thread, but I've tried to put together something appropriate for a first post.

Would love to hear your thoughts.

That's a legit casual outfit for a young guy. My only critique is to be cautious of your tie knot size in relation to your shirt collar points--keep them proportional (same goes for tie width and lapel width). Thanks for posting! This reminds me that I should revisit Club Monaco for my casual wardrobe.

I think the shirt is the only bad part. The neck looks too large and the collar points too small. Especially for a tie that thick. I like it otherwise.

Crusty and Sander playing hard-ball with the pin stripes and looking good doing it.
