Well then, maybe we need "a queer eye for the straight guy."I hear you bud but still want my attire to reflect myself and knowing some of my past girlfriends I'm not sure I'd trust their judgement ; ]
So I have thought about this idea of a springboard wardrobe for a long time considering I am in the midst of a move with my family from Japan. I currently mostly wear wool trousers or Chino pants when I am casual, I have never been a denim guy although I own a pair. As Derek Guy alluded to it is very much true indeed that you are either one or the other(I am a Chino trousers guy), but I have severe FOMO over Japanese denim which has been so hyped up outside Japan. Would you say buying premium jeans, e.g. Full Count 0105 that might interest me in wearing jeans would be similar to you spending on your Loro Piana Sweater? Or are sweaters something that you have always been into wether it was Lan expensive Cashmere from Loro Piana or not?Trying to go from 0% to 100% is futile - slow down and enjoy the process.
The Springboard Wardrobe
Podcast: Blamo! - 2024 Wardobes and Listener Questions - from the 12th minute, it addresses precisely your question.
Pick one part of your wardrobe and go learn everything about it. Check high-end, low-end, and vintage shops. Once you've tried enough things, you'll know what you like.
For me, it was knitwear. When I first put on a Loro Piana baby cashmere crewneck, something clicked. And when I compared it to a high street knit, the difference is obvious. I'm not going to spend $150 on an affordable cashmere jumper because I know I'll never wear it. I'd rather have a more expensive sweater that makes me feel good every morning.
sorry Zekaa, every thing post #36 is just what I’m trying to avoid. A fashion 'given a name', some thing from pop culture, much like the site (ascribed), a uniform, Y I have wrote "there is no men’s fashion. We wear what we like, fit or not fit in w/the trendy or the old skol. Comfortable, expressing our own (individual) style. I think I said it in post #30 so will leave it for now.
(I read this as “I’d like some advise”)I would love to advise for summer.
