I'd prefer to not drop about $200 after tax and everything - any suggestions with a comparably good price/quality ratio, or places to look aside from SGH?do you want to spend $190? you can find aviator style sunglasses for much less.
Have any you've worked with in the past? I think the cheapest I spotted them online was about $110 or so before shipping. Better than $190, but still more expensive.Also sunglasses are one of those purchases that have the highest cost/value ratio. Meaning their price is often not justified. If you do find something you like, make a mental note of the brand and style number and google it when you get home. Often times, you can find them for a lot less on an internet wholesaler website.
Thanks. What sparked it? The Great Lakes Christmas Ale, the Ommegang botles, or the Spaten pack?You have great taste in beer, so there's something that doesn't need changing
Ask and ye shall receive. In chronological order:Can you put any picture of you when you used to be overweight- for the sake of it?
That's what I've always heard about them, and what made me avoid them. They do look better than the Oaks, I must admit. It's just whether I can do better.but all that aviators make you look like a cop
Sing it again, rookie bi-atch!The way you wear the aviators remind me of this..
So, day 1 of "Let's Stop Dressing Like ****":
So, you mean the first pair or the third pair? I'm a bit hesitant about the gold (too flashy?), but if it looks good... I think the white logo is just a sticker. That'd come off immediately. I live in Virginia now (Richmond area), but my sunglasses are almost omnipresent - my girlfriend has to remind me to take them off the top of my head when it gets dark.I think the Ray-Ban aviators look really good on you (I have that same pair myself -- gold frames, green lenses, and they're my favorite of several pairs). I don't like the little white logo in the upper left corner of the lenses, but compared to the Oakley's, it's an enormous improvement. I'd get those, if you're still on the fence about shades (although maybe wait until summer, unless you live in a warmer climate).
I live within about a 2 hours drive to the Denim Bar, so I can probably head up there to get a better idea about the APCs. re: Farinelli's - Alright, I'll check that out instead/in addition.I would start in the very beginning with some A.P.C. raw denim. Either the New Standard (and size down only 1 or 2 bc you have bigger thighs), or Rescues (size down probably 2 or 3 ). [...] The final advantage of dry denim, and A.P.C. in particular, is that while you're breaking them in at least, they look great dressed up or dressed down. But try and find somewhere to try them on, ideally.
Yeah, the Luckys are starting to look more and more like a bad purchase, but I bought 'em before I started lurking here... I bave an excuse! V-necks... I'm a bit of a hairy dude, and a few errant chest hairs peek out of any v-necks that I've tried on. Probably not the best lookI think once you find a good pair of jeans (sorry, but I'm not a fan of those Lucky jeans on you), I'd go with some solid-colored tees (muted colors like black, brown, grey, white). I think bright colors are tacky, and I hate graphics. I guess I strongly agree with Why's earlier recommendation of Alternative Apparel tees. I'd add that you should get some v-necks as well -- not just crew-neck tees. Maybe throw in a couple long-sleeve henleys too, if you like that look.
The skull's in the closet. I've got another less ridiculous buckle on a brown belt that I'll post up in the near future. It is way too long, though. It was large on me 50 lbs ago. I might be able to trim the edge down a bit... Or I'll just stick with the reversible one I posted earlier today until I find something somewhere between a plain buckle and the skull.To be honest, some of the J. Crew/Banana Republic/Polo shirts are just fine, so I'd work on that part last. I also like the new khakis. A new belt is crucial (no offense!)... maybe something from Tanner... just an idea. Or if you want a bit of a flashier buckle... maybe look for something like this (although perhaps less pricey):
Thanks - I got my hair situation fixed when I went somewhere that they charged more than $15 for a cut... As for the goatee, now I've heard everything - keep it, shave it, go with the fu, and go with the mousstache. I'd be afraid of ending up with a **** stache, so I'm a bit hesitant about that route. If anybody suggests handlebar, it's all over. For me clean-shaved... Damn, I have to go back to when I was 18 for that. Here's a pic of it: Attachment 16797 I'm sure that I'd look a bit different after 6 years and 50 lbs, but that should pass along the basics... Still a good idea?I think your hair is fine, but I'd lose the goatee. You look like you could pull off a good moustache if you like that (it's much better than a goat in my opinion) -- but trim the sideburns a bit shorter if you do, otherwise you (or anyone, for that matter) risk looking like a bit of a sleaze.
So, you mean the first pair or the third pair? I'm a bit hesitant about the gold (too flashy?), but if it looks good...
