WAYWRN: Classic Menswear, Casual Style

[DorianGreen]

Nice sweaters in the outfits above. I think they would look much better with creased trousers.

Of course, but one does not simply hit costco and target days before christmas with kids in trousers.

Your style acumen has definitely improved throughout 2023. It’s been fun to watch your progress. Keep it up 👍

Personally, I have only tailored trousers.

I appreciate that a lot. I feel like I am finding my own style. As it turns out I had a lot of great pieces already (and style preferences) and just needed to add a few specifics. And most of all guidance/knowledge on how to use them best from this group on SF and some of the blogs I read now.

Im excited for the future and growing further.

@DorianGreen my life is such that I need different pairs for different aspects.

Almost wore my grey shawl cardigan, but thought it was too casual for the office.

When I saw the Rowing Blazers+Target blue cardigans I wanted one. The two nearest Target stores didn't have any and they sold out quickly online.

So I scoured the depths of Ebaynia to find one that was being sold for the same price as in the stores ($40.00). Finally found an eBay seller who was selling a Medium, so I got it.

When it arrived I noticed although Rowing Blazers+Target called it a unisex Medium, it was a Mama Cass Elliot size unisex Medium. The other thing I noticed were the buttons were on the girl's side, not the boy side.

Didn't notice this in the stock pictures size the person in the picture had the cardigan buttoned.

Here's the stock picture.

Today I washed and dryed the cardigan on warm and it is now closer to a usual men's Medium cardigan. The buttons don't look as weird (on a boy) if I keep some of them buttoned.

Here's a close up of one of the buttons.

It's very thick and very warm. It's made from cotton and recycled acrylic so bugs won't eat it.
