Thanks for the feedback guys, I've always been the less is more kind of guy, and I can't really steez in Psych class. I have a NDG cardigan, it's just wayyy to hot, I was uncomfortable in the jeans tbh

@bows, the first thing that came to mind was HEY MCFLY!! Haha, just playing. Your fit gave me some ideas for a Valentines day fit

Bows, I'm afraid I'm not feeling it. I don't like the collar"”the fraying is nice but the two buttons way open kills it for me. I assume you were referring to the fact that the collar kept flopping over your jacket, which I reckon has to do with that. But I also just think the look is really incongruous.

The gloves are an interesting choice but they don't work with a jacket of the exact same color; at the first couple looks they just make your sleeves look vastly over-sized; combined with the slightly boxy fit of the blazer, it makes it look way too big for you. Unfortunately, once I realize visually that they are gloves, they make the sleeves of the jacket look tiny. I can't really tell if that's the jacket's fault or not. It might be the cardi's, bulking out under the sleeves and making them look underequipped for your arms.

Finally I don't think the jeans and the blazer work together"”also because they're both black. The drape of the pants makes it clear that they're a different fabric, but the identical color doesn't differentiate them enough from the jacket. So the effect is that they look mismatched, rather than just unmatched. I think going charcoal in the jacket or grey on the jeans would help a lot with that issue.

+1, the jacket-trouser combo looks off as do the gloves with the blazer
Shirt collar looks slo[ppy especially accompanied with it being untucked
The hair is a nice idea but looks way to greasy

The bottom half looks really good though, trousers/boots look swell
Edit: Nice fit nil, you look scary as **** though

I'm not sure I can think of many good ways to wear an untucked dress shirt with a blazer, though I'm sure they're out there. Cropped blazer plus untucked shirt with long tails is one, but that's pretty constructed steez.
