You can't go wrong with the Buckle clothing store.

pricey though, huh?

I hate fashion. I wish I could just wear jeans and a t-shirt at all times and nobody would care. I don't see why it makes any difference. But human beings tend to get bored, and try to think of ways to validate themselves to others.

Yeah...looks good though.

I've got that first thermal I showed.
I've got another black thermal from Filter it was 45.

They've got some Ed Hardy T's in there for 100+
Jeans 200+

I've spent some good change in there the last couple of months.

They're wimpy...for British army officers!

An international cult classic, the Desert Boot was inspired by the crepe-soled boots worn by British officers in World War II. Soft, supple suede full grain leather uppers and a genuine plantation crepe outsole deliver all-day comfort. Timeless styling has remained unchanged for fifty years.

What you know about sunglasses SR? I'm not a fan of the big ass things people wear these days, but I want some fashionable sunglasses i can wear every now and then. The bad thing is I don't like the way I look in smaller sunglasses since I still have chubby cheeks. I'm hurting for xmas present ideas so I figured I'd ask for sunglasses. gotta be under $150. Closer to $100 or under the better.

[Branden Albert's Huge Balls]

If you spend $100 on sunglasses make sure you get some that go with your Ed Hardy shirt.

[Kyle DeLexus]

Nah, I rock the wild horse tee thats up in post 83. I just need some sunglasses and it's a xmas present. It's not like I'm going for the $400 pair that I naturally pick up and say these are nice. Most cheap glasses are well cheap and come with problems.

I've never had a problem with $5 pairs of sunglasses.....other than losing them....and then I just go buy another pair.

I've went with all different kinds and never have any luck...they either stop fitting properly after a week or so or something more extreme. The one pair of sunglasses I've had that worked out was a pair of Oakley's my brother let me "have" when I was in high school then he lost his at the lake and took them back. I've just had better experiences with expensive ones.

Half of it is probably a mental thing were I take better care of ones that cost more.

Although the opinions are just that, I've shown you a few of my choices. The non-aviators are dope, those are called Gucci Classic, they're really nice w/ a subtle darker tortouise-shell frame. Under 150.00 though? I'd look on EBAY, these'll retail around 325.00-350.00 USD... :(

... and Kyle D, Gucci put out some of the smoothest frames available, aesthetically, anyway.

Persol is a good make, I think TinyEvel has a pair. I don't belive that i've ever owned a pair. Prada's these days are a bit eccentric oh, and Oakley, yeah, i'm sure they're comfortable, but EVERYONE has them, why be common?

The only problem is that buying sunglasses online is something of a crap shoot. I like to be able to try them on. If you know frames that you like, though, you can get some hella deals at STP (on just about anything, not just sunnies).

I like Smith Optics, Costa Del Mar, and Spy, personally.

Well, i feel bad, the first pair may only be available via GB (england) - however - you may be able to contact Josef Seibel via their website (haven't looked.)

The first pair is kinda of nuts, i like them because they're odd & not seen & would look good w/ longer jeans. The other brands, MTG#10 are; Born, & one Clarke (i think.)

Though Robert Wayne's have gotten a lil' 'Wild Pair'y' for me, over the yrs. they'll still have like one style outta a hundred that is just exceedingly dope and smooth, so look in to that label, as well.

Do you guys really find people look at you differently based on the shoes you wear? How about your hair?

I usually just phone it in. I have to wear a uniform all day, so I pick a comfy pair of sneaks. Hair looks fairly weak. I just didn't know if that really matters.

This applies to meeting women, but also business applications (more importantly).

Actually yes, in my line of work it makes a huge difference. I'm in advertising sales and consultanting and if I wear a tie I make more sales than when I don't. If I am at a business social I drink wine instead of beer, just some little things like that actually make a difference.

[BryanBusby]

Here are some tips, free of charge!

-Jorts, don't wear 'em. Ever.
-Want a suit that looks and feels great? Please don't go to Mens Warehouse. The less polyester in your suit, the better!
-Always good to own a pair of majority white casual shoes (no, I'm not racist lol) :)
-Buy in colors that are more appropriate to your skin tone/hair color. If you have light skin/hair, avoid white and black. If you have a darker skin tone, refrain from pastels.

I'm basically looking to like a block of mild cheddar cheese: slightly sharp, but not overwhelming. I'm not a suit and tie guy, I'm a college student. So casual is for me. If you really want to, you can show me some nice casual kicks, some nice casual shirts and jeans. I dress fairly well for people around here. In the city I'd probably look pretty crappy.

I've just gotten back into the swing of working out. But trying to gain muscle is harder than trying to lose fat. People can lose ten pounds of fat in a month. I'd have to be on some serious juice to gain ten pounds of muscle. As it is right now I'm about 140 pounds.

Also, I am blonde. And I have very fine hair. VERY FINE. I usually put something in it to make it look chunkier and then let it lay down. But I don't like that. I would love to do something interesting, but my hair sucks for anything that requires it to... stay in one place.

Yes, sir. I have an incredibly small frame. In high school I was 125-130. Even if I were a low body fat with a large amount of muscle, I'd be close to 150-155.

I like them a lot and don't have any black shoes except sneakers but there's no way I could/would ever spend that much.

You need a pair of black (non sneakers) just buy quality and the investment is solid .

IDK, to me they look like they're a boot, yet low-cut, and aiming toward a 'driver' look. I like it, dressy enough to look compact and not bulky. Work perfectly in the moisture too. I'm buying them.

That's why there are thousands of choices available. I like them just fine for you.

any of you w/ medium shorter hair that ride a spiked or manipulated style that are looking for a good product, this is the one. Best I've used since 'fudge' products (ALA 1997.)

Clever Black Matte finished jar, w/ a smart 'quick-flip' top/cap. it doesn't take much of this. It IS something you have to 'WORK' in your hair for a while, i think the warmth will help it 'optimize' it's control. It's precious too, because you can hold it in your left hand as you crunch in your style w/ your right.

BEHOLD!:

[Dante84]

Well, I'm not style challenged, in fact I have pretty good style, I'd like to think. However, I am perplexed on this latest issue. I could use some help!

I'm meeting the long-distance gf for her best-friends wedding, and she is the maid of honor. I'd like to look good, since we obviously don't get to see each other as often as other couples. I will also be meeting friends and family this go around, so I need to not look like a slapdick.

She will be wearing a "jade" colored dress. The exact color can be found here:http://www.davidsbridal.com/Browse_Bridal-Party-Bridesmaids-Shop-By-Color_pageNo-1?colorName=Jade

Now, I'm not trying to "match" her dress, but I'd like to look good standing next to her, dancing, pictures, etc... so the colors need to not clash or look stupid. The reason I am in a pinch is because one of my normal, go-to colors (light blue) won't work on this go-around. Right now, Im thinking gray suit, white shirt, black tie. My concern is that it is too simple.

Colors that go well with Jade are silver, black, gold, cream, white, and pink.

My style: I am dark blonde, with light blue eyes, and moderately tan. I never wear yellow and pretty much steer clear of earth tones (browns, tan, dark green). I wear a tapered, euro-style suit with a slim tie when I dress suit-nice. I keep it simple, not a lot of crazy designs, mostly solid colors, with the occasional argyle tie.

Suit: Since it's a spring wedding, and I'd rather not look like I'm attending a funeral or prom, a black suit won't do. Because of her color, navy blue is out as well. I've pretty much settled on light gray, and am leaving the door open for a graphite gray (with a hint of shine). Any other options?

Belt/shoes: If the suit is gray, then Black. Simple enough.

Shirt/Tie: Now, in another situation, I would be open to a faint pink shirt, but I'd hate to make a douche impression and be "that guy" in pink. So, is my only option a white shirt? And the tie decision will be settled after the shirt is picked.



Any advice would be appreciated. I'm not insecure with the relationship whatsoever, I'm purely concerned with looking like an asshole in front of everyone in her life. I want to look good for her sake, so thanks in advance for any assistance.

[Phobia]

My advice is not to ask for advice if you already have it already figured out.

[Great Expectations]

I'd go with a very light yellow shirt, so light it is almost off white.

[Dante84]

My advice is not to ask for advice if you already have it already figured out.

I don't.

[lazepoo]

If you're trying to go as vanilla as possible, your original option of white shirt/black tie isn't a bad one.

You're pretty limited on shirt options - white is the way to go IMO. I wouldn't go with any shade of yellow because it will make you look jaundiced in all of the pictures, and for fuck's sake, why would you even consider a pink shirt with her dress?

If you're worried that your ensemble is too boring, pick out a good tie and some cufflinks. Take a pic of her dress with you to the store and match it against some ties to find colors that you like that also won't look dumb with her dress. Get one with a pattern, like a light paisley, or at least a little texture to the design. If you're just going to wear a solid color, you may as well save the cash and stick with the black tie you already mentioned.

And don't neglect the shoes/belt. The proper accessories can carry an otherwise average look.

[HMc]

I what you consider your best wedding appropriate combo. Unless you'll be in wedding party photos (you won't) you don't need to know how well your suit goes with her outfit. Frankly, it's a bit gay (or beta) to think about it.

I'd wear a slimfit dark navy suit, a white shirt and whatever tie you like. brown shoes perhaps.

and honestly, it may well still be cool in overland park but lose the slim ties -unless you're a member of The Killers, they look stupid.

[the_spatula]

If you're going to do the solid black tie, then it should be a cotton tie. Maybe throw a tie bar on if u want to stand out a little.

Although I love rocking my light pink shirt with my grey suit and black tie, the pink shirt might not work that well with jade... probably going to stick with the white shirt.

... and if you decide to wear a navy suit, the cool kids are wearing brown shoes/belt with em

[Jewish Rabbi]

and honestly, it may well still be cool in overland park but lose the slim ties -unless you're a member of The Killers, they look stupid.

Wrong, other than the Killers part.

I guess it depends how slim you're talking, tho. 2" is pretty in right now.

[Dante84]

Yeah, I'm not talking pencil-thin. Just skinnier than average, because I don't want to look like I'm borrowing one from the old man's collection. And they are still in style in OP, and KC for that matter. Also, I'm 25, so its not like I'm the 38 year old trying to fit in with the younger crowd: ["So, you guys heard of that new Kings of Leon band?"]

I pull it off just fine.

In regards to the "gay/beta" angle, if you had read my post fully, this issue hasn't arisen because I'm trying to impress her. I fart on her, for fucks sake. I am, however, concerned with making her feel as best she can on an important day; the day where her whole trust circle judges her based on me. The same way I wouldn't want her showing up to meet my family whilst wearing a neon tube top, I'd prefer not to look like an asshat in fugly clothing. Hence my post. I'd like to consider all angles before settling.

Also, Spatch, I agree... the lighter brown shoe/belt combo looks great with a richly colored blue suit.

[HMc]

turning up in an asshat wearing fugly clothing does not equal wearing your best outfit without being paranoid about matching her jade dress, and I never suggested it was.

I have to wonder, with CP perhaps not being a bastion of advice on sartorial elegance, whether you didn't just post so we'll all informed as to how stylin you are.

If you've got it all figured out...

[BWillie]

Hey Metrosexuals.....I need to know a place in the Kansas City area I can get BRIGHT white casual slacks and a BRIGHT white casual blazer or suit jacket.

True, don't like the brand. I just thought they looked nice. Any ideas of good $100-$150 watches? I like the stainless steal silver look. Generally I like watches that have a big face on them.

[Simply Red]

bwillie - I'm not wild about the watch, sure it looks fine, but they're pretty damned common.

If you're in that range, you say; go for the worst of the best - with ESQ - they're the same company as Movado, only their lesser tiered answer.

Additionally - you may check out American Apparel off of the Plaza. Just watch for 'skinny fit' - try EVERYTHING on there. Do you all have an HM there? that'd be another possibility.

Don't forget the Banana Republic, they'll have some cool clothes from time-to-time.

If you were here in Atlanta, i'd have more suggestions, but you all don't have the stores I had in mind.

www.chronoshark.com has some good watches for around $100 occasionally. If you can wait a couple of weeks they will normally have something on there, a Movado or something similar for around $100.
