Coz I don't have a proper mirror at my new flat yet and this is the best angle to get the full body shot.

If you have a better suggestion how to take the photos I'm all ears


It really varies from place to place. Most windowsills, counters, tables, &c. are too low for a good angle. Sometimes an upper shelf on a bookshelf (people still have those, right?) is your best bet. Just whatever's more like chest height and less like waist height.

Cool thanks, will keep that in mind for the next photo :)

Haha, that made me laugh :) how about the overall look?


As nn said, while the angle makes it a little hard to tell, overall everything looks a little slim, debatably too slim. The pants are probably the top candidate for going a little more relaxed. The forearms on the cardigan look pretty snug, too, and offhand I'm guessing it would pull at the buttoning points if you tried to wear it buttoned. I'm a fan of slim fits overall, but this looks like it could be dialed back a skosh.

Actually, it's the angle, because the top cardigan is quite loose, the only thing that's really slim in this outfit are the jeans. You guys are right, I should film from a different angle. When it's buttoned it's actually aligned straight and nice.

I'll take another photo from a higher angle when I get home and post

As you can see cardigan fit is relaxed and sleeves are not tight, buttons down straight and neat, only really slim part is the jeans.

Cardigan definitely fits well (I'd still say slim, but definitely not too tight), although I'm not crazy about the logo (All Saints?) on the chest. Agreed that the jeans could still be a little more relaxed. I don't really go for the watch tuck, but YMMV.
