I started wearing a lot of rings, but now I'm down to one. don't make purple your color. you can wear it the shirt looks good, but wearing purple/pink is a bad idea. consider black(not pinstripe), it's more slimming of a color, but if you do wear darker jeans with the black top.

I love the jeans your wearing, don't be afraid to wear them with a white button up. try rolling the sleaves nicer and higher...overall the look is awesome, i'm not a fan of purpe but I'm sure it'll get you opened at least once.

When I think alpha male purple doesn't come to mind.
problem is with any kind of sweating, pit stains are something that I wear an under shirt specifically for.

I wear a white undershirt with the purple top, I dislike the purple, I have a nice deep black shirt just like this one (with a button above made specifically for holding rolled up sleeves and it's my favorite, it looks amazing with that blue undershirt and the bright blue jeans. I can mix it up as well of course with a dark shirt.

I have blue, grey black, and I got the purple just for a splash of color, like someone else said, I can't wear the same colors every day.

It's an adventurous look, man. Personally, I like it. However, because of your facial expressions, you look a little gay. You can use that to your advantage, e.g., girls you approach may not know if you're just chatting them because you're gay. So maybe consider doing a lot of indirect openers/game.

AS for color choice, I go with vivid colors. I rock pink, purple, and very bright plaids.

I'm going to do a separate post on my theory why. In general, though, it relates to "costly signalling."

I look forward to hearing about it, however plaid is totally not my thing doesn't work.

I got the purple to experiment, the rest is grey, black and dark blue, however I get a LOT of compliments when I wear the purple shirt, so yeah.

Also I'm well aware I look a little gay in the purple lol, It's actually not the first time I've heard it, but I stand out like a spotlight on a moonless night so I guess that's the tradeoff.

It's true plaids would not work for you. Until you drop a few pounds, you need single-colored clothing to create a seamless line, which is slimming.

I disagree with conventional PUA wisdom about black. In a club, all the guys have blue or black. It's a sea of it. No one stands out. Based on my style, I am noticed right away in the club or bar. Girls come to me.

Once I went out with a pink polo that was out of the dresser and somewhat wrinkled. My guys were up my ass about it. They were pissed I was going to ruin their game because of it. "Trust me," I told them.

I went out, and a girl negged me (which is very common because of how I dress). "You lose your iron?" Boom, I opened her, got her and her friends at my table.

I would not recommend that move for most. I am smooth/fresh looking otherwise, and in good shape. Most guys would look like a slob.

However, pink can work. And even wrinkled clothes, too, for the right person.

So try out the purple shirt. You gotta field test everything you wear, anyway. I have outfits that have 100% close rates in, and some I get no play on. I, e.g., get ZERO play when wearing fatigue shirts. Orange, however, always works for me.

Try out new looks. Wear the same outfits out. (If any girl says, "Didn't you wear that shirt last weekend," well, that's a neg, means she noticed you, and is actually a PLUS.)

Through natural selection, you'll learn what colors and looks work best for you.

Keep us updated.
