I agree with the previous posters that that angle makes it a bit hard to tell, but I think it might work better with a top of a color other than black. I think you might be able to pull off fairly high boots with those stockings, and that would look good. As far as the skirt goes, I think it looks good, but a grey pleated skirt or one in a plaid pattern could turn it up a notch

*Warning ****** Low Light Distance Picture Alert* Personally I like the way this looks, longer than nearly knee high stockings would probably look pretty hot with the same F*Me boots/colors.

That does make sense, is that look common among Asians down under?

I can understand that. I think the last two years have seen an increase in skirts/boots in girls of all races, though. Perhaps ppl have gotten away from the tight jeans/boots look of late.

I suppose that might be somewhat true, but it still looks fuckin hot!

I'm thinking 1 or 2 MJK shirts, especially if his brother can do the painting for them sometime soon. I'm going to give gurkees a shot and see how comfortable they are, and maybe buy another pair of shorts. I think I might end up wearing a lot of cheap white undershirt Ts if the weather gets really hot.

It's my thread YATCH! Anyways, I can't believe I'm posting here again. This thread is useless without pictures. Of MANSTYLES. ^_^ Anybody into the rolled up pegleg cuffs for spring? Happy does it pretty well but I'd like to see more of that mmmm hmmm! I'm also thinking of hemming all of my slacks so that they'll show more sock/ankle this spring. Not capri short, but slightly dandyish short.

i´ll be doing the rolled up wide cut jeans and WW2 style chinos for summer. No pegleg cuffs though.
Not a big fan of shorts (but Ill be getting those aswell if the weather really calls for it)

I am hoping to pick up the following items for spring and summer:
-A slim fitting cotton pant / trouser (in grey or dark khaki) for the days where it might be too hot to wear jeans.
-White Purcells or natural white Chucks.
-Some sort of web belt (in olive) from an army surplus store (so that I can give my leather belts a rest).
-A new LA Dodgers hat because baseball season is here! I plan on going to a lot of games this season and I will need to keep my head covered if I'm sitting in the cheap seats.
-Waferers for said baseball games I plan on attending.

I wish I can get a Baracuta Slim Fit G9 for the nights where it might be a little cool / breezy but I probably can't fit that in my budget so I will have to wait until next year!

Check out A.P.C. I think they've got something like that.

Thanks for the suggestion. The web belt on the APC site is pretty nice, but for what it is, it seems a little over priced. I am hoping that I can find a decent alternative at a surplus store for under $20. If not, then I might just pull the trigger on the APC one.

*****: If you post a full-length shot, we'd have a much better idea of the outfit. Though I like it more than most who have replied. I can be critical, particularly in regard to whatever shoes and shirt you might be wearing, but I'm still young enough to think miniskirts on girls with good bodies are all but an automatic thumb's up.
