Elisix, I think your fits are good. You wear the clothes and not vice versa. I think most of the criticism you get from the guys here, who are up to date with men's contemporary fashions, is based on the garments that you like to wear are simple, classic, not over-designed and there's nothing wrong with that because you look comfortable and that's what matters. Maybe a suggestion is to try some labels like Carven or Ami. Their clothes are similar to your style but have more design and a narrative in their styling. It's just a little more interesting than regular.

I don't mind the guy in the lookbook elisix. It's safe, but it works for that guy. You're not that guy though. What you're doing is not only really monotonous, but everything looks slightly disproportionate. That guy probably has 3-4 inches on your waist, and is maybe 2-3 inches taller. That safe look looks good on him because of his build. You really need to expand outside of jackets, shirts, and chinos.

You've got a decent idea of fit, but there are a number of things to critique about this fit: -Shirt is a bit tight/short -Personal preference, but since the denim is white, they're a little too slim in the thighs for my taste -Shoes are too dressy, replace with sneaker as mentioned previously.

What is wrong with safe? Why is that so boring to you guys? 


I think my style is pretty safe. I wear slim jeans, boots, buttons downs, some simple knits, etc. It doesn't have to be boring.

I guess what I'm saying is you're boring.



Also please please please please learn the difference between plural and possessive. I cringe when I read "chino's". You're an adult you can do this.

In relation to this dreadful elisix discussion, posts 87031 through 87033 were like a string of really awesome commercials in between acts of Two and a Half Men.

AFL you might believe you are dressing safe, but your style is much more in line with what is acceptable in this thread.

How am I boring? You don't know me. My fits are obviously not to the liking of many here, but calling me boring is just you being obnoxious and rude.

As for my incorrect grammar, I apologise.

elisix, if you ever make it to the States, be sure to hang out with acecow. You guys would probably really hit it off.

Can you elaborate? I have no idea who he is or what this post is supposed to mean.

I make it to the states at least once a year on average.
