OK, sorry for posting fits so often (this is what not having a job is doing to me), but I actually would appreciate some feedback on this outfit For prom themed party Shirt has ribbed cuffs which I think is kinda cool. Decided to pair N. Hoolywood jacket with slimmer Lad trousers and ankle boots, looked better in silhouette than the fuller N. Hoolywood trousers Lad trousers:

Any ideas? Go with Lad pants? Different footwear for N. Hoolywood? Wear Rick dunks?

don't apologise, yours and snakes fits have been amazing over the last couple of weeks.


I like the lad trousers better. I'm not sure about the ankle boots though. maybe just those shoes you were wearing with your suit the other day.

actually if it's prom themed, some dunks might be appropriate

Thanks for the feedback, really do appreciate it. Honestly, anything more than jeans + t-shirt is kinda above my head at this point, but I'm working on it, heh. I'd wear shoes, but I only have one pair for work, and I don't wanna trash them on accident.

Paolo, that is one ugly watch (it's an ugly ring, but hey you made it so great!)

why did you go with fuscia silk cuff knots? Any particular reason, or is that what the shirt came with? Everything feels like it was cobbled together just because you had it, frankly. Plus, you're wearing all that with jeans. I kind of want to see the bottom half out of morbid curiosity, but really mostly, I don't. BAM.

That watch was a gift from my parents for my 18th birthday, I really couldn't give a **** what anyway says about it, it is a gift for an important occasion. Plus you cannot even see the thing in detail, so you cannot judge it. It was also not a cheap watch at all. As for the silk knots, I left it in for a stylistic touch, I have seen many people do that here and never get scolded for it.

Ok I wasn't going to say anything because I didn't think I needed to, but apparently I do: You seem to be taking the MC approach to streetwear/stylish clothing, that if it's expensive and/or has good craftsmenship, it's good, which is frankly wrong. WE don't give a **** about the quality or the details of something because as a WHOLE, your outfit was terribly put together. Normally I wouldn't say this, but given your past fits and the fact you were clearly trying to show off how much your items cost and their perceived quality, I think it's needed. You need to learn how to put an outfit together, using a bespoke blazer with functional cuffs instead of a $50 blazer from H&M doesn't change that.

I disagree with you totally. I have no idea what is so bad about the outfit. It is so simple, a blazer, a shirt, jeans, and loafers...big deal. They all happened to match each other, fit well and be good quality items.

Paolo, is there a reason you didn't button the last button of the cuff? I'm ignorant with regards to that type of thing
Not something I'd wear, but that ring you made is also very cool

It is really just to show that it is functional. It is mostly a stylistic touch, but I wore it to dinner, I kinda needed that extra space.
