From a recent portrait shoot in Mayfair with the photographer Stephanie Rushton. She's curating English Eccentrics, although "Eclectic" or some more unkind adjective beginning with 'e' may more accurately describe me:

wagthesam, i don't mean to be harsh, but i think you have to give up on jeans altogether. stop wearing white shoes as it accentuates the awkwardness of the pant silhouette even more. change your frames into something with the same width, but less angular. on a positive note, hair's defffo much, much improved.

There has to be a way for everyone to wear jeans. This can't be the end.
Do your ankles roll inward? Do your shoes wear unevenly on the bottom?
Your stance is duck toed, feet pointing excessively outward - is that natural? You are standing in a way which I don't think you would walk, which makes for an unnatural photo. Your feet are following your arms, too, you wouldn't walk with your arms a half foot from your sides.
Feet straight, hands at your sides, put a small cuff on the jeans, wear a bulkier shoe to match your thighs (not your calves) to combat the carrot fit (is this not the same visual that Eason sometimes portrays?).

I feel like you need a haircut, different glasses, and run a bit more.

thanks for the tips. in no way do i stand like that... ever. i had to rush since the camera timer was short and as i just turned the picture took, leading to my outward feet position lol. i thought it was cool though so i left it like that. im going to stick with this style until i gain more weight.
i am glad you think the hair is better. im just trying to grow it out and just maintaining it until then. I wear contacts but my supply ran out and im lazy to order more.
my jeans has weird bunching in the thighs since i lost a bit less than two inches on them so far on my cutting diet.
i am 6ft3in
i think i will go try the kmw 1980s and apc rescues this weekend. i think a lot of the thigh thing is not enough straight leg and knee circumfence, this denim tapers a bit too.

I don't see a problem with the jeans--nice and slim.
