- collar could be tighter - a little lose currently - jacket needs some shaping, especially from the buttoning point downwards. looks like you are carrying a glock on each hip ... lol - pants could do with a little more hemming, or suspenders to hold them up - good luck on the interview man!!

The skinny jeans and suede off-white kicks are screams for a less casual jacket though. This would have looked great as the top half with gray slacks and mocha brown suede shoes or the lower half with a navy unstructured coat.

I sported this jacket with grey trou before and that really came off well. Mocha brown suede would have been a good choice too, admittedly.

I´m having a navy unstructured 3roll2 sc at my tailor at the moment...can´t wait for him to finish work!

This one isn't conservative business dress, but with a rare 85 degree day I had no intention of wearing socks.

Still quite new around here. Please excuse the crappy pics (and also the stains on the mirror, etc.

)

Was hoping this would be an improvement over my cameraphone restroom photography, but sadly, the fact that I've been wearing this thing all day isn't going to win me any beauty pageants. Anywho,

Before anyone berates me again over the fit of the suit; I know, and I have more "flattering" suits on the way...

Or, you just happened to be unconsciously puffing your chest out for the photo, which is not impossible, come to think of it.:

Are you saying that I'm flaunting my moobs?

But seriously, I did look at the jacket when I got it home, and when buttoned, it did have a slight break, but, it also it seemed to be pulling away from my shirt collar a bit, which is very odd, as that's normally a sign that a jacket is too large, not too small. Another candidate for a visit to my tailor, or another donation to charity (I rather think the latter - the suit is in good condition, but the lapels are wider than is the norm these days, and I've never been entirely happy with either of the two suits I've gotten from Paul Stuart (the other one has long since gone)).
