Judging by Kent Money's expression and pose he seems like the kind of cat who thinks they're better looking than everyone else on the forum. A kind of arrogant contempt which entails the idea 'I won't really listen to what anyone says I just want them to bask in my beauty'. As I'm basing this ridiculous accusation on a few pictures, I could be wrong. It's not necessarily a bad thing, either.

@PinkPantser: Are they Persols or Wayfarers with different lenses? It's very difficult to tell from here.


I think we focused too mcuh on the brands. If you posted the fit without any of it, we would have said no hat, getting everything a tad more fitted.

about the poses: I dont really have a good mirror, and I cant take shots outside because my camera is a POS, so its hard to represent my fit all that well. im definitely not trying to have some 'attitude' with my pictures. honestly, I was thinking I should start cropping my face outta pics because I think I would get more 'neutral' replies about the outfit itself, and not necessarily the stupid grin on my face....

Excuse my misguided presumption. I think your fits have been pretty solid, so far. Obviously I'd unbutton the top button the chambray but you seem to have a fair understanding of how clothes should be sized. Your shirts and jeans fit pretty well in all cases, and you also have fairly good hair. How are the women's trousers faring? @kelvin: I agree. But isn't it the idea that if one decides to spend that much on clothes, they are not aiming to look 'run of the mill'.

I think it's pretty simple. Better fitting clothes that are much less expensive would look mcuh better on him than more expensive brands of the same thing Jeans/ sneakers / button-down is such a regular kind of outfit but fit is everything, and this is a classic example. Those gitman bd's are nice though. he has more of the body structure for it. Honestly i think the jacket/shirt are probably fine its just the jeans/shoes/hat.

Cat's so fresh. He's styling most all cats on this site. Mayne.

Cat's even got the nonchalant pose down to a tee. Is it your nephew? Son?

Props.

Not everyone is going to give you a treatise on why your outfit was a bit messed up. I told you it was the top button not working whatsoever in your fit. Also, quit thinking about it so much. Just take a picture that shows what you're wearing. All you showed was your shirt which you screwed up. Also, for future reference, when you post something kinda unremarkable (not necessarily bad), you probably won't get many comments, as there isn't much to comment on (again. not always bad). Just post pics and don't worry about it. Just helping you out Also, i can't remember be uncertain/comfortable in my clothes for a long time. The hand fixation thing isn't a big deal, but i need to see an opthamologist or something (i forget which one is which) for the eye thing. **** happens but you gotta keep truckin' jskiss- The kid is adorable, man. The blog has been better lately. Nice work. I wish some of the little kids around here styled a bit. All the middle school kids just do the tuck pants into socks thing, and then really into the overly girly **** like dora backpacks or spongebob varsity jackets and pink ****. I dunno, seeing these big ass middle school kids wearing tiny pink backpacks is just kinda weirding me out lately. Your picture quality is looking super crisp too. pink- The landscape is scary. Makes me think of places people go to dump bodies

mellowfellow needs to give me those lim pants and soon
