Well, that's entertainment/media for you. However there's still hope for you, I've broken the dress code at pretty much every office I've ever worked at (and have yet to be fired for it, knock on wood) till now, where we don't have one

Tucked-in button-down, dark denim, cuban heels, vest/cardigan/blazer a couple days a week depending on the weather.

On lazy days I switch out the button-down for a gaudy, bullshit graphic T.

Let me know if you know anything good. I think we've discussed beatwear in another thread.

It's brutal ay. They'd complain if you were wearing the cleanest jeans, yet they let people wear those ****** ass black pants, which may as well be sweatpants.

I see lots of Cuban heels in the more "cowboy" style stitched toes. For $20 that is a RIDICULOUS steal, chisel toes and Cuban heels are an interesting combo. I'm personally trying to avoid the stitched toe, as it does give a bit of a cowboy vibe. And, being super pale and a buck twenty-five, cowboy isn't a look I can pull off. I'm planning on copping Beatwear as soon as I have a job, not that I can't afford them regardless, I just want to get them as a "reward" for myself. I'm been wanting Cuban heels for a while, and fiending for them ever since I got really drunk and was wearing some chick's pumps around the party. They were a size too small, but I got to experience what it'd be like being over 6 feet tall hahaha... Good times... good times...

I think cuban heels are only badass when you're already quite tall. Otherwise it just looks like you're Tom Cruising
