My first WAYWT post as well, borrowed a camera to demonstrate a fit for comparison so Drizzt could sell me stuff. Comments welcome... I like this cardy but think it might slightly too big.

PS The slight bulge in my left thigh is my wallet, if you were wondering.

one thing, seeing that your raw jeans look fairly new, when you are wearing pants this tight, you may no longer want to keep anything in your front pockets, try to get a bag, or opt for the back pockets of your jeans/jacket pockets...

the cardigan is a bit long, and boxy... it might look better open...

also the patterns of your shirt underneath kinda throwing it all off... should go for a plain white AA v neck with the cardigan unbuttoned and i think it would look pretty good

vvoc, thanks, I appreciate your feedback. Okay I'll tuck that shirt in, as soon as my beer belly gets to the gym! - I signed up for that too.

I'm with you on the tee. The pattern is much subtler irl without a flash exarcerbating it, but I would prefer to do a flat white with this. Problem is I don't have one right now. On monday I'm going on a bit of a shopping spree to get some grey jeans and a few flat coloured tees. Not AA though, I'm not a big fan. Ideally I would buy some fitted pima cotton tees, anyone have any suggestions on that?

PS Jeans look raw, but are actually just dark 7s. Same ones Drizzt's wearing above EDIT: or rather was; picture's gone.

Thanks for the input!

Had a fit pic today until...I lost my camera in a cab. Truly epic photo, too; cameo by Pitt, Ford, Cheadle, Meatloaf, etc.

So until I get to DC, I'm going KB style. Or maybe we'll see just how ****** my camera phone really is.

Dior 21cm Dauphine jeans
Carpe Diem boots

Still trying to figure out how to do a boot tuck properly. I want to show off more of the boots, but I can't seem to do it without it looking contrived. It seems like the key is a pair of jeans with a small leg opening- something I don't own.

solid look, pinoy. I personally think the boot tuck doesn't work so well with jeans...make the opening TOO small and it looks a bit feminine, so hard to pull off unless you have a very petite frame. A regular straight leg jean like what you have would make it look contrived, i imagine the hem would come back down anyway and then it may lead to a bit of self consciousness.

If you're gonna go with the boot tuck, i suggest something like a pair of tapered black trousers (cotton or wool) would go well, and look better than doing it with jeans anyway.
