if theres anyone who SHOULDNT be posting style advice... its minkous i dont give a **** if its 'against the norm' but he looks like he's either colorblind/marsupialed when picking matching accessories (i.e ties, hats, everything)

Lol thats like telling Anna Wintour don't wear sunglasses inside or calling Hamish Bowles colorblind. I guess fame and fortune really changes things, so the normal guy can't venture outta the realms of color and should only be limited to those things that match perfectly. Without people taking chances there would be no fashion industry.
By the way my orig comment wasnt intended to sound that derragotory. and OGKush please do post some of your fits

eh...maybe so...but, isn't it somewhat remarkable to feel incredibly comfortable and at ease?...and to actually exude that?

nothing fits?...that jacket is sz M...and i have a 40" chest...i had to soak the thing and stretch the sleeves out to get them the right length...and, olive's no good for me?...i think you just don't like the way it works over the navy blue t-shirt...at least, that's what i hope...i love olive...and olives

I also wouldn't discourage people from posting in WAYWT. OK, maybe kitonbrioni. No, I take that back, not even him/it


the crowd is cool...i kinda figured i'd stir the pot a bit with this one...thanks for having the courage to buck the trend, shoreman

yeah...the jeans are most definitely dated...and oversized more than i would prefer...but, look at that incredible stacking!

As in 75% of the other posters here...



75%???...but, how many of them do it for less than $40?
smile.gif


well, socal, you are certainly in the other 25%...and, let me take this opportunity to say this:

when i first found this site and was perusing the backposts, i came across a post of yours where you mentioned that an ex-bf broke up with you because he "couldn't be with someone who spent so much on clothes"...initially, i sympatized with his point of view....

but, after looking at more of your posts, i realized that you were less of a rich-boy who just throws money at his wardrobe and much more like an artist who happens to use expensive and rare paints as his medium of expression

Was that supposed to be a direct insult for my collection of Jcrew clothes? Don't really see how you can knock on me for that because I DO WORK THERE and have been with the company for a few years now.

If you think that's absurd wait until you see my diors

PS. I think you're extraordinarily tight jeans look absurdly feminine.
