How do I look?

Your face is too pale. You need a tan. Oh, and your head is shaped funny.

Undershirt showing under your shirt looks terrible IMO. Either get a v-neck or wear a tie so that it's buttoned up all the way and not showing.

Shoes look like they have a good shine on them and are pretty decent from what I can see in the grainy pics. You don't have too much break in your pants like many "offenders" do.

In my inexpert opinion, not too bad; depending on what look you're going for.

I don't see anything wrong with this look, but agree that the undershirt shouldn't show.

+1

+ shirt looks really bad!

but my question is: why are the sleeves up? Will you move the desk after the pictures are done (are you working in a removal firm?)

A square centimeter of undershirt showing doesn't bug me, but I gotta be honest, the shirt itself does. A little too much of a "going out" shirt, IMHO.

Get a v-neck, roll down sleeves, tuck shirt in more, iron shirt.

I may be one of the few here who does this, but I follow the gig line rule. Basically you're zipper front, belt buckle and shirt should form a straight line. So I'm also going to say your gig line is off.

Also, is it just me, or do the armpits look a little wide?

why would you do manual labor in nice clothes anyway? Personally I think that's kinda stupid. If you're going to break a sweat, you should be wearing a t-shirt, rolling up your sleeves won't do you any good.

+1. I don't know how this diagonal stripe trend started.

I don't find anything wrong with the undershirt showing, especially if it's of a different color.

The shirt isn't very good: low armpits! I wonder if the sleeve length is ok. The diagonal stripes are a bit too much, and conflict with the pants, which are more dressier.

You look just like some guy I work with. I've been telling him to start wearing v-necks undershirts, buy slimmer fitting shirts, and stop wearing shirts with the weird geometric patterns. Maybe now he'll listen...

The pants are fine. Shoes not bad. Buy a few new shirts and you are in business.
