P.s: And personally I like the shoes and think they suit the dressiness of the jeans, they also match the belt and compliment the hue of the jeans, as well as show the socks which match the shirt, but even if he was to wear chelsea's it would look fine, and thats my point entirely, it's just personal preference.


Thanks- I agree

Decided to address these problems. I think i knew all along that the jeans weren't gonna work, just didn't wanna admit it to myself. Good thing i didn't spend much on them.

Took pics inside with the timer (didn't know my phone had it). May have been better outside. Anyway, subbed the jeans for some plain, straight, non-raw indigo jeans. Flagged cardi.

I would up size on your tees ^^, they are too tight and thus distracting from the rest of your outfit.

hmmm, 2 factors have kept me with small tees. The first is that i recently watched "A Streetcar Named Desire" and found it pretty much impossible not to get a mancrush on Marlon Brando.

The other is that my shoulders are not very wide. I can't stand the look of shoulders going past the natural shoulder. I realise that the pics look quite tight in the chest, but this is exaggerated by the photos. In real life they don't look that tight, especially when i'm moving around and not posing for a photo etc.

Unlikely dude, if your nips are showing in not one but two fits you post back to back it's a good sign your shirts might be too small. If you really care about defending your tight shirts you're better off saying 'I just like to show off my pecs'

Well yes, i guess that would be the honest answer. It's a bit strange admitting that when i'm posting the pics on a forum comprised almost entirely of guys, but there's no way i'm going to get tees for wearing around girls, and tees to post on WAYWRN.

And it is cold in my room!

Looks good teger. That jacket's pretty sick. What's with people posting multiple photos of themselves in the same day asking for help? There has to be another thread for this.

Teger - your last few fits have been money man. Really stepping up your game.

Agreed. I always thought Teger's fits were really bland and unflattering. His last three or four have been right on the money, though.
