Agreed. My wife often wears leggings in lieu of pants and the quality of the look can vary a lot. Usually they look best when paired with good lace up heels/boots, which will not look anything like a collage freshman wearing uggs! Add a tunic top or short dress over top and it can look amazing.

If you're wearing a dress over leggings then you're not wearing leggings as pants...

That would make it dressier than a four-in-hand, wouldn't it? I've always thought of a four-in-hand as the farthest toward casual on the necktie fastening spectrum and a full windsor on the opposite end. And yeah, definitely looks like a cutaway collar.

Anyway, that jacket fits you perfectly. You could either upgrade the pants to wool trousers or ditch the tie and swap in a button-down to bring everything into harmony.

Ok, so I just realized that both posts I'm disagreeing with are from indesertum...weird.

Anyway, not a fan of the CdG Play chucks. Not exactly sure why, but it's kinda like "hey, chucks aren't cute and quirky enough; I need hearts to make them even cuter and quirkier!" or something along those lines. Agree with people who said they don't match the fit.



A bunch of people are gonna be dicks and flame you, so here's a quick synopsis:

- Flip-flops look awful on guys, almost all of whom have ugly feet. This also applies to you.
- A logo graphic tee from a designer diffusion line is pretty tacky.
- The t-shirt belt tuck does not look good.
- Someone already mentioned this, but wearing a jacket like that with a graphic tee, flip-flops, and jeans clashes in a bad way.
- That jacket looks like it's meant to be worn as part of a suit (possibly because of the stripes and flap pockets), which doesn't pair well with jeans.

No hate, just some constructive criticism.


Hey mate
Thanx for the criticism, sometimes I forget how crude people can be on this forum. In regards to the thongs, I think it's an Australian thing, there everywhere and is part of our culture. The jacket is a type of sports coat I guess that's made out of linen and silk so it's good for the 40+ degree days in perth
