I know going sans PS makes some people on SFs head explode, but I don't wear them day to day and tend to reserve them for events/occasions.



Thanks MOK. Duly noted on the shoes. I really like your SC today. WOuld have been even better as a suit!

TTo and Spoo- Both security guard getups are really nice, but Spoo I still think you'd benefit from a cuff. TTO love the tie.

Twostep I like the DB, but I always feel like your sleeves are too short on your fits. Vintage(? ) Tudor is really nice too. Might have to start busting out my watches.

No security guard for me today... Just another plain fit. Just noticed my right cuff is all wonky.



Love the shoes in the background!

omg, smg!

sorry - rookie mistake - response was to burnbulb

Is there a particular reason to ridicule people who post fit picts in this thread? If you don't like what they are wearing but having nothing constructive to say to them, don't fuckin' post.

If I may suggest - you might want to take a step back from accessories and stick to something more basic and restrained for now. Introduce the accessories very slowly. The first photo, for example, just has too much going on, and the number of accessories makes what you're wearing look gimmicky and costumey. I already think a single tie clip can look gimmicky, but adding on to it with the collar pin and pocket square is a bit much. Even on top of that, you have a contrast club collar and vest (without a jacket). It just looks like you tried to flare out with every single thing you could buy, but did it in this mashed up incoherent way. Stick with the very basics for a while - an OCBD and simple trous. If you need to wear a tie, then do so. You can slowly build from there once you have those done well (more basics, less strange details like thin lapels and contrast stitching, more focus on fit).

Also, if you must wear a tie, pick one with more contrast, but complements your shirt. For example, if you're wearing a blue shirt, pick a tie that's maybe brown, but has some small blue detail in it. Again, stick with a very, very basic tie and restrain yourself from picking some crazy pattern. Maybe even a basic repp striped tie would be good here.
