Because it's only semi-foofed. I didn't alter your fit, which needs a lot of work.
I'm going to get lynched for trying to get people to all dress the same, but the truth is if you are having trouble with shirts, you should go to solid blue. There is no shame in that. Many of the best dressed men in the world wear nothing but solid blue shirts 60-80% of the time. Don't try to look for a different sort of fancy shirt. Avoid the fancy shirts altogether and go basic. Keep in mind what Manton told you about bolder, more complex shirts--they came about to be worn with outfits that are otherwise very plain and sober. In other words, they are highly limiting.
interesting. i like what you did with the pants. i have a pair exactly like that i will wear next time, and i think i would like a shirt slightly brighter than your change. i do like the tie better as is however. the jacket IRL is actually as you have it, not as it shows in my pic.
most importantly, WHY DID YOU NOT PUT THE "FOOFED" STAMP ON IT!

Is either of these 2 better? Also, what are your thoughts on contrast collar shirts (white cuff and collar, blue/white bengal stripe, for example)? I would have thought that these would be looked down upon, but Foo gave someone wearing one 5 :foo: earlier in the thread.
