In my humble opinion, the answer is a resounding "Yes". Looks great.

I'll check out the last album.

I was listening to yeasayer's ONE while walking around in a forest and it was magical.

Arr, I love your stuff almost everytime but this looks so much like 95% of the looks here in the city of Melbourne that it just comes down a few notches to me. It's still a great look no doubt as the fit and style is consistent and on point, but there's a predictability in the dark jeans + duffle + wayfarer-style (probably not so much but stick with me) glasses + funky shoes and this has become the go-to outfit for many people in my city. In my city this outfit has a definite hipster vibe to it which I can't help but associate. Your choices could very well be simply a coincidence of styles, but the cynic in me can't justify it this way.

I feel that an altered version of this outfit particularly with your awesome flare would have made this a lot better, though I will say that I do think the shoes are in the right direction on this regard.

Feels liberating after wearing mostly boots throughout winter. Everyone should own at least one pair of footwear that doesn't isolate you from the ground.

...works well as the lighter denim compliments the boat shoes nicely.

My first post here. I've been surfing the forum for a while. Looking for balls smashing / constructive criticism / help. Shoes are tan calf and they look more brighter in real light. (pss... I know the shirt needs to be ironed)

Yeasayer have a taint of Disco Biscuits-style astrojam bands that I can't quite get over.

How you wear something is just as important as what you are wearing. Sorry if that makes me sound like an overcritical douche (I'm well aware of the fact that I'm usually a complete asshole, but that is honestly not my intent here)

Yeah, I took a few shots and that wasn't the most flattering (eyes closed, little hunched) but it was the best lit.

I was just listening to Nowhere and the pose felt natural

Also thanks toru and jd.
