yeah black on black is a no go for dress shirts and cardigan. my advice, stay away from black dress shirts entirely. i know you said it was a work fit, but you also said you saw nothing wrong which led me to believe youd wear that out.

just curious, why is black on black a no go?

let me see if i can try to save this:

First, I am partial to green sneakers. I think they look really dope if done right.
Read on if you want the details:

Secondly, I am not sure about the hate b/c obviously you have history with posters that I am not aware of not does it matter.
But for the sake of your outfit, I would suggest swamping out the tee for a button down/OCBD -- preferably white to start things off.
Get rid of the hoodie, it is making the leather look really full in the body in a bad way. IF you are really cold, then throw on a different outerwear or layer thinner pieces. You should be able to fit a button down+jumper under that leather without a problem. If not, then you can stop reading here as the leather is too small. At least IMO...
Grey chinos? I would go for something a little more structured if you are looking at chinos. Like actually trousers, wool, no break or .25" (VERY SMALL BREAK). The cut should be a fit fuller as well, try 7.5" - 8" for good measure. I personally would wear some bottoms that are some beat down faded raw denim. I think some beat up faded denim would be cool contrast to the sneaker and give more of an edge along with the leather.
that said, i think everyone is jumping on the bandwagon because you don't quite know when to stop chit chatting and just listen. you don't have to address back every single post... sit back and enjoy. it's a learning process that I myself am still studying

the chinos are green, i have some apc new cures but i dont think they look good with rafstros
an ocbd with rafstros?

IMHO, it just makes it look like you're a waiter or going to a funeral.

I don't know why, but I'm liking this a lot more than your most recent fits.
Very nice color on the Trickers, btw. Goes perfect with the rest.
Is the tie the same color as the coat? Would maybe change it if so.

Maybe he has an erection? Or maybe he has a massive cock? Have you thought about that since your eyes are looking upon that?

Thanks - Tie is definitely brown against the green coat.

just there's no contrast between the shirt and cardi (the same could be said for most any colors) unless you're going for some monochromatic style that would then rely much more on the materials and textures to differentiate the pieces. it's just more problematic with black because it is so severe. and as already has been stated you end up looking like a bartender, funeral attendee, gangster or perhaps a freaky mortician!

Alright. Looks kinda green in the photo but I would have gone for a brown one too.
Well done.
