really critical of your fashion because it is solid. Ice has it spot on as well

The plaid is a no. I just am not a huge fan of it. and the whole short sleeve plaid makes it look weird. unbutton one more button

the skulls shirt by itself isn't great, I like the leather and the other over jacket with it.

love the blazer if fitted. looks solid

that shit crae shirt is sick. in a good way. seems to fit your personality serves as a dhv but in an uppity part of town are chicks gonna see this as a dhv or dlv?

unbutton one more button in the club guy pic. you can draw on chest hairs with sharpie like me if you want but unbutton one more button and also the sleeves are weird pull them up instead of roll them up.. I like that better but thats debateable

you look super uncomfortable in the three button shirt and I don't mind the v neck.

I like the shoes... but I don't at the same time... they are alright but they aren't making me wet either

brown shoes, wing tipped, white shoes, sneakers with odd colored nike swoosh, lacoste shoes.. I wear loud but non obnoxious shoes though.

black jeans. try them maybe you will like them.

sounds slightly ridiculous but I honestly think you could pull a white pants dark shirt look. a lot of looking through random shit helps

the darker jeans over the lighter jeans.

you want contrast in all of your outfits is most important, dark shirt light pants, light shirt dark pants.

hope this helps.

Damn some more feedback finally! Thanks SD! Ice as well of course.

I had those last two pics taken by my dad and thats probably why I look awkward. I am digging both of those v-neck shirts and the ladies seem to respond quite well to them. At the same time I am geting some of my "AFC" buddies telling me I look like a douche which makes me believe I am on the right track.

As far as the plaid that was one of the first shirts I got when I got into this and it was my favorite...sigh. Time to be retired.

I can unbutton one more button but no need to draw on chest hair lol. I am a hairy son of a bitch and have to manscape to keep it under control.

I have better blazer that I need to have dry cleaned and it will work/fit much better. Gonna rock that with a bigger collared shirt like Ice suggested.

The "That shit Crae" shirt is for more party enviroments. The upscale clubs I'm starting to frequent I haven't tried it out there yet. Not sure I could even get in with it honestly.

I get what your saying for shoes. Those boots were a safe choice and go with alot of things. I also have a pair of expensive light brown wing tipped dress shoes and a pair of Durango boots (combo of cowboy and motorcycle style). I don't know if those boots help any but I feel like the shit when I wear them because they make me stand up straight and two, I'm wearing fucking cowboy type boots in one of the most feminist,hipster,bitch made cities in the US. Girls either love them or absolutely hate them.

I will also try the black pants and probably the white ones as well. But used my allotment this month on this project.

Heres a few pics I took of things I was thinking about getting.

Think S D covered a lot of good points. I'm going with darker colored jeans over lighter now. Your selections have a good snug fit.

I'm looking at the pics and one thing that's standing out to me is that a light colored shirt doesn't really suit you. Try wearing darker colored shirts(like Maroon).

I def agree with SD about the white pants/dark shirt look; you can pull it off.

Try boat shoes as well.

I really like the 3 button shirt a lot. Also it feels like it's missing something with it, like a cardigan or jacket.

From the pics you posted I love the colored jeans/pants. That green one is calling your name. I'm not a fan of jean vests/jackets, but it does look like it'll suit you.

I like the watch, but if you're getting white make sure you keep it clean and spotless so it always has that "pop".

I suggest avoiding "washed jeans," they just look very, for lack of a better word, bland.

Just a general rule:
-Buy clothes that fit you right now
-Never mix match jewelry/accessories(silver with silver only, gold with gold only, etc.)
-Belts should match your shoes(Black belt with black shoes, brown belt with brown shoes).

I go to a website that focuses on men groom/dress and it's extremely helpful. PM me if you would like it.

Read your earlier posts in this thread. If you want an edgier look try some necklaces. I noticed you have wrist wear but no necklaces. Jewelry really can make a plain outfit look awesome. And black jeans are the shit. I have 3 (skinny, straight, and tapered). You can dress them down or dress them up.

Can you post a pic of your boots X?
