Had a good day today, weather was nice too! Grocery shopping fit:

Didn't take a pic while full but groceries were pretty heavy so I converted to backpack like this:

Decided to give the +J cropped trousers a go, but I think I'm a tad long in the leg for them:

Sorta interesting that you're a giant compared to me but yours hit only a little bit higher than mine. I'm guessing that was the intended spot and the waist/length ratio was done fairly well. Overall though I think mellow lucked out as his hit just the right spot. I only wear mine with boots.

Basically cut is great but it's just a bit too short. White is especially tough to pull off.

Hot Dawg - looks good.

Much better.

PG - Nice jacket

MF - really liking this one. If you find St James necks a tad wide, Aromor Lux are narrower but similar quality.

Snake - excellent

Asoubu - really liking this, but an inch less roll on the pants would be killer.

lmao - Nice. I like the funnel neck but agree a slightly shorter bodied cardi would be better.

Aeglus - what's the bag?

I got the only sample of the TOJ seabag (would really fit your casual style come to think of it, but it's dead now thanks to lack of interest... glad I got it as it makes my grocery shopping much easier and the bag is horsehide so it should last a while).

Yeah - What I thought. I'm a pretty regular length leg too. I might try them withwith a pair of chukka boat shoes or Palladium baggies and see whether the height of the boot helps. If not they'll do for the beach...

Nice score. Shame it didn't go into production. For general grocery runs I use a canvas & leather Bill Amberg lugger, but for heavy loads the handles aren't ideal so for those it tends to be a completely unstylish Lowe Alpine backpack (I guess cutting down beer consumption would help the load issue

I probably don't know a quarter as much you do about style overall, but to me they look a bit out of place against the clean lines and drape of the outfit. I think I'd prefer simple offwhite sneakers in this situation, rather than dirty ones.

Warning: not a real waywt, so excuse the gats and hanes t. Got my ann d jacket in the mail today so I decided to try it on and see how it looked. The jacket itself is incredible, just need to have the sleeves shortened.

With Ann I don't bother to shorten the sleeves, I just do what she often does when styling the runway shows and flip the cuffs. I have 5 Ann jackets and like 3 of them needs to be rolled.
