-navy blue blazer - H&M ($70)
-tan Khaki/Trousers - H&M ($30)
-white dress shirt - Express (I don't remember the price)
-check tie - aliexpress.com :laugh:
-Allen Edmonds Strands (retail $350, I got 'em for $190)

:mj:


Aight i Have to offer some constructive criticism :hug:

To me the tie is all wrong i know you love express ties but with this fit it makes the tie looks very generic.

The skinny tie just looks off you should have went with a non skinny tie.

A navy polka dot tie like this one would have really went well and kept the fit classic .

I wouldnt be scare of color either :leon:


Also the break in the pants .

people have varying opinions on how much break you should have but it looks like the pants are bunching a little at the bottom.

Depending on the style and fit i would suggest maybe taking an half an inch away from length .

Here are some examples of different length trousers . The guy in the bottom right has the longest which is not bad but if you compare him to the other guys he looks a little sloppy.


This isnt a diss just advice just like i welcome help from everyone .

Good post by Thiefy Poo, pretty much touched on everything :ehh:

Anyone fukk with Boast?

Saw some old white country club breh walking through the neighborhood swaggin in one of their polos. Had to do a double take because I've never seen anyone wear it :ohhh: :ehh:

It was an old upper crust country club tennis brand back in the 60s, 70s, 80s and was just recently revived:
