I don't see the charming defiance, confidence and exuberance that your posts exude.

You're a handsome fellow. Smile. Wave an arm. Shoulders back. Something! Even with this morose aesthetic.


Granted all of the above may be the antithesis and mostly is to lanes intent here, I have to +1. The sulky pose and dim colors don't up this fit in any way. I like you as a poster, and with respect, you just look lost and out of your element with this clothing. I would double glance you on the street, but not in a good way.

The jeans should sit on your shoes, with a slight break (perhaps). Those are like 4-6" too long!

Change the shirt, too.

im lazy so I just take it in the same place, I'll look for better lighted places sometime. Also, I just feel awkward when taking photos so I dunno. I also usually just try to look like a somber individual. thanks for the kind words, though

It does look better with my dropcrotch pants, but I wanted to wear tight jeans that day. Those shoes are the **** son like I said before all my pictures make my shoes look like that I dunno why, lol. kinda too top heavy right now cuz of the jeans tightness and chickenlegs. I definitely need more voluminous bottoms in my wardrobe, only have some linen pants and some dropcrotch ****.

Open or concealed carry in your area? That chunk looks a wee bit big for concealed carry. Jeans suck though. Get some APC in your life. And congrats on getting SF's collective panties wound up by posting a gun.

You talk a lot of **** for a guy who dresses like a complete wanker. Go write a dark poem and pout about that.

I'll write a gloomy poem about how sad it is that people continually throw money down the drain when they shop at Jcrew.

thanks to aeglus and reedobandito for your thoughts on the suit. The shoulders do look too big. It's TaT time, isn't it.

it started with me wanting to manipulate it so I could show off the jeans details, cuz pretty much all my fitpics to date look like im just wearing some tight pants. However, after playing around a bit I never got the intended result, but instead changed the look.

a question for aeglus or reedobandito: Reedobandito said the suit is ill-fitting in ways "a tailor can't fix." Is it the boxiness you're talking about? Or what are you seeing? I'm here to learn. any advice would be great.
