Aspiring to be a kva model. I want a boot that's grungey and will work with jeans and dressier kva trousers. I'm not going to be wearing dress pants, just the ones I posted in my waywt. The glasses are tom ford tf 5046. They arc down, not eye brows lol. Honestly Im really considering laser eye surgery, so I'm holding out on purchasing new glasses. These are about a year and a half old. If I had to get some new ones, it would be a ndg-op concept. I'd prob bite the haircut too. (See ad with Asian dude)

i see where you are going as i am sort of in the same boat, but why not try experiementing a little before dropping so much $$

IMO, all your purchases make me so

because it'll be in the recent purchases 1 day, then next in the b&s

you do have the body type but for some reason the clothes you buy just falls on your body awkwardly (boot tuck for example or your mix and match of top piece with bottom)

For all the times i have been lurking these subforums, i have never seen anyone with that similar aesthetic boot tuck (honestly, RO + boot tuck?) or maybe they just do it right... perhaps you need to try some fuller pants. the skinny/slim silhouette of your bottom garments just give too much exaggeration to your chicken legs

I never post in recent purchases haha. I agree with the skinny bottoms, I'm slowly
moving away from that. I thought these boots would allow for better boot tucks. I usually see boot tucks on ro store models. ie ln cc. I think I'm just not pulling it off right. However I don't want to wear swinger pants with a loose top, not my style. Also might make me look shorter lol. Im realling feeling this boot, I was also considering the Ann d vitello boot. But I'm not sure I like brown. Any other options you could recommend ? Or other places that sell the Ann d boot in blk? Thanks bud

Snowman the high boots are exaggerating the bow-leggedness

I have been saving up for a leather jacket for some time now unfortunately though while looking at R.O. I kind of got side tracked, having fallen in love with a few things...Sadly due to the prices I have to choose in between the following:
