Does seem to have gone off a cliff the last few pages. Maybe the long weekend? Weird.

while things suck may as well post this and ask if it works better than those skinny blue jeans from last time:

I disagree on this statement, because i think it can look rather nice. However, i agree something looks off with those. It's like the laces are really loose or something

I'm not feeling the boot tuck but everything else looks nice. It does look better than the jeans, as the jeans are more drapey looking than the skintight jeans

I dunno, it's not bad it just seems off, i think your casual looks like that last one with the jeans and the white trickers look infinately better on you dude. But i get your just trying new stuff and having fun so go with it. Not a fan of the hair in that pic though, normally i like your hair too.

looks good IMO aeglus.



the only thing wrong with the tuck the other time was the indigo jeans; i think black is needed. would probably look most appropriate with some beat up black skinny jeans.

What goes good w/work boots? Would slim fit chinos work, or is the problem the fact that slim pants + chunky boots = feedback loop of the appearance of twiggy legs + swollen feet? I'm looking to get those Wolverines but am also planning on relying heavily on raw denim this winter

They are black jeans, but I agree, the picture looks darker than real life. The blazer is lighter irl, too.

Also, I am expecting to get "blazer too large" but believe me, it fits perfectly. The shoulders end just where they should. I have very wide upper back/shoulder part and narrow waist, so I think sometimes it might look larger. I was told the black pants are "baggy" but it's bs, if I get even smaller jeans than those (which will be hard because these already fit well) then the body will start to look unsymmetrical imo!

Um because you're in college station TX and I'm about 2000 miles north of you? Just me though.

Jeans aren't too baggy but they need a hem. Jacket is too big, just cause it fits in the shoulders doesn't mean it fits everywhere else.

Ok, that sucks. What do you mean by jeans needing a hem?

By shortened, do you mean I should just roll them up a bit?
