@5pyro5 a little hard to see everything with the lighting. Sweater looks interesting and those boots are nice.

Thank you Frank...The thing is that I cant step outside wearing this stuff to get a better shot as they are a little too extra. The upper is very interesting indeed even though its a knit its very sturdy and well constructed more like a jacket than a cardigan.

@Coldsnap I noticed a lot of stretch in the waist. I measured about 17" across at first and they are now maybe about a quarter inch wider. TBH, I could have probably sized down to a 31. The legs are very roomy and I do not imagine the seat and thighs to stretch at all. I am considering having the waist nipped but will likely wash them once prior. I am wearing an Inis Meain belt, which does a good job holding the jeans up where I like as well as help streamline the outfit compared to a traditional belt and buckle. Ideal waist measured across is probably 16.75".

Thanks! Thigh measures 12.5" and waist 16" on a 31 if that helps. I'll probably get the waist taken in on the 32 too.

@gettoasty the sweater generally looks fine, not something to really worry about. And the Uniqlo U jeans look great on you and with your style—much, much better than the Levi’s.

Every individual piece is great here - a mark of your careful wardrobe curation. However, I am not sure the particular combination of relatively tight, fitted leather and the rest of the looser, more flowing pieces, works. It ends up making you look a bit pear-shaped. Others may disagree.

Yeah, very intentionally going for that look. The jacket is fitted, but not super slim, so I don't think it's too off.

Also the pants look wider there than they are in real life, since I'm walking with my hands in my pockets. Still, they are relatively wide and straight. Another angle:

Looks really good (and a whole damn lot better) from that angle, @nicelynice.
