Not sure if "thirditem" is a troll account or not but the pictures are of a guy who has a blog and posts at Andyland in the trad forum.

Dude even sort of looks like a Kennedy. That is, one of Ted's offspring, not so much JFK and RFK.

You've looked good in every pic, including the first in the red polo that received so much ****. You tucked it in. Call the cops. You're ready for shuffleboard in St. Pete. This is all bull's balls. You creased your chinos. Man, you're an instant middle manager.

You might want to seriously consider withdrawing from this bull pit and wearing whatever suits you, because I have seen not one thing in one picture that doesn't look either okay or that flatters you. You've come here already with a far better sense of dress than you may realize.

rare instance of the source of the troll's pics being more ridiculous than the troll

Long lost JFK offspring?

All these lookbook people always have very questionable "professions". If they're not a 15 year old graphic designer/art student, they're a singer or "writer". I'm waiting for the 13 year old recording engineer.

First post ever on the forums. I thought I'd be a little out there.

Here's what I've got on.

Amen. It seems like in an age where it's never been easier to network, so many people exaggerate their status. Anyone who owns a DSLR is a "photographer." Anyone with a blog is a "writer." Anyone who bummed the latest version of Photoshop from a torrent is a "graphic designer." It's an insult to the people who have worked tirelessly to be genuine photographers, writers and designers.

Ha! Well thanks.

Everything people say on here I just take lightly and don't take any of it personally. However, the guys on here have been paying attention to men's fashion a LOT longer than I have, so I consider the advice well-educated and helpful.

Honestly though, the pics I've posted are not representative of my wardrobe at all. The vast majority of my clothes are pants from the Gap that are way too baggy, polos a size too large, and graphic t shirts I got from my college for free. The reason I post pics is so I can get an idea of if they fit correctly, so I can kind of build on that knowledge.

I have a decent idea of what I want to do with my style now, so I likely won't be posting more pics until August or September once I actually go out and buy everything. Thanks for the compliments, though. It's appreciated!
