Every time there is a thread like this, there should be one reply saying "lurk more" and then no more advice after that.

You are 21. You should be wearing a suit every single day...No more t-shirts, polos, or anything else.

thanks gwydion for the shout out. Just my .02 cents (for what it's worth). The reason why I included as much about myself as I did, and the reason I think everyone should that seeks advice, is the more people know/understand about you, the better advice they can give to help you find you're personal style. I think fashion & style is all about confidence. Anyone can recommend that one wear this or that, but if one is not confident in what they wear, no matter how perfect the fit or how expensive the label (not that price/label have anything to do with a garment looking good or bad), it will never look as good as an outfit that you feel good wearing. It would be easy to create an army of clones, but that's not personal, nor is it stylish.

But it is terribly effective for defeating the droid army.

there's nothing clone-ish about wearing jeans, boots, and a t-shirt. **** is basic. your choices are obviously limitless, but if you want a step up from American Eagle, BR, and Gap nothing wrong with APC, Alden, and Hanes as a starting point.

**** i would be pretty happy if everybody wore APCs (or flatheads or samurais or ande whalls) instead of True Religion. don't give a **** about exclusivity. spread the denim gospel

I think my comment was misunderstood and I can see why; I wasn't clear enough. I didn't mean that recommendations should all be vastly different and unique, I meant recommendations should fit into the a persons personal style.

uh dude, I'm just too lazy to type everthing you need to know. Lurk more, look at the WAYW pics and wait a while before buying stuff until you really get it. Then post fit pics, not the ones you know work but the oens you're not sure about and accept cricism
