yup, blazer is too small and shoes aren't going well.

Gonna return the blazer to yoox, it's clearly undersized. Will get something similar that fits better.

Need to get some nice sneakers i think.

PS. Nice sneakers would probably be good here but i don't have any.


Not sure whether the blazer is salvageable, with how tight it is in the arms. I will be going on a cut for the next few months but i don't know whether that's gonna help.


wow. first semi-decent fit from hendrix. your pants actually look pretty good.

your idea is good in theory. however, the sleeves of the jacket are pretty long given how short the body of the jacket is. the body is way too short for you. the distance from the pocket to the bottom of the blazer makes it look like it was cut off. you're probably too ripped for it. can you even button it? for the "summer steeze" look you are targetting, you need a longer jacket with deeper V. i would return it if you can. i think that Marc Jacobs jacket you posted before would be much better.

color-wise, the whole thing is kind of thrown together (probably because you don't have enough options in your wardrobe).
  • first, i wouldnt wear that color blazer with white pants. I would wear it with dark pants.
  • second, I wouldnt wear that blazer with that t-shirt; i would wear a t-shirt that is a lighter color than the blazer.
  • third, i wouldn't wear those pants with those shoes. it's really rare for white pants to work with black shoes. assuming we are talking just about the white pants without the blazer, I would combine them with some off-white shoe or anything in the earthy tones (brown, burnished calf, cream, etc). you could probably do some colored shoes like light blue...anything besides black really.

+1 the sneaker idea too

No, that's fair. I dunno about proportions, since I think that's part of the fun with all my weird ****, but there's definitely something really easy and incredibly masculine about throwing on boots, blue jeans and a white tee. I always kind of feel like a movie star, truf. To me, the megastacks/hightops/tanks is a little younger feeling, which is fine for summer. Also, those margiela boots are made of love. Gorgeous.


Hendrix nice fit on the pants man! And good for you for trying something new. Sq's comments are pretty good, although I think you could get away with the blazer/pants color combo with lighter shoes and a lighter shirt.

The skinny jeans. We know you have skinny legs, but you need to stop wearing them. They make your shoes look like clown shoes. Wear a slim straight or something instead. Skin tight is not always the best look. Wear something that evens our your proportions a bit.

The people who think this fit is good need to go see an optometrist. Dude, you are way too big to be wearing that blazer. That **** is tiny on you. The problem isn't the arms; it's the chest. How do you even button it up (if you even can) without looking like some scrawnier, wannabe version of Hulk?

for the record, i think his feet actually are clown-sized for his body (US 11 or something).

really love this sweater, picturing it with different bottom though - maybe a gray slubby linen?

yo i like this a lot, very clean but sexy at the same time. tom ford steez. i love spread collars like this though. it is very 70's, you're right; if that's an issue for you, pull it in
