WAYWRN: Classic Menswear, Casual Style

[upr_crust]



Señor Crust, when you show up at work without a tie, do you hear about it all day long from your colleagues? That's certainly my experience.

My "biz-casual" look today only elicited one comment as referenced above, and certainly not a long screed/diatribe/extended joke riff. I think that my colleagues are so shell-shocked by what I wear that they simply accept the visuals without comment.

Lovely shirt @upr_crust. I like the shade of those socks too.

i need suggestions on how to incorporate these penny laofers into my outfits, i cant imagine wearing them with anything other than a suit.

White trousers and a blazer in some place that isn't a boat.

Iso, I think that fit would benefit from untucking the tshirt/sweater/knit (??) and letting it just sit naturally. Tucking in the shirt breaks up the fit into top and bottom. I think it would have a better flow to the eye if it were untucked.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

That's one of the last places I would wear loafers.

First post here. Hello.

Hi, welcome to this thread. I hope more people start posting their fits here. I think there are a lot of people who would benefit from a wider variety of styles.

I like the concept/idea... but I agree about the orphan jacket thing. It looks like it is. Also, judging from this picture and the one in your avatar I belive you would benefit from wider lapels on jackets... just my 2 cents.

Some days, you just don't feel like putting on a suit. For me, today is one of those days - warm, humid, with threat of thunderstorms this afternoon here in NYC.

All BB - shirt, trousers, shoes - even socks.

Overall nice fit you wore the other day. I don't particularly like those shoes (the color) but the rest I do. I would have worn a light brown pair of suede chukka boots or something like that. You could have got away with it because the PS has shades of brown so it would have looked good I think.

Aside from the bandana I really like the fit. I would also have worn the sweater untucked and that would have been a killer casual look. I think it suits you better than those other "more formal" fits you have posted before.

That coat/jacket looks nice, very nice. I am not certain about the shirt, looks too casual to wear with a jacket I think... I think it some trauma of mine... I don't like yellow shirts with jackets. I own a few shirts with yellow stripes or plain OCBD but I never wear them with a jacket... I guess Dwight Schrute just burnt the yellow shirt + suit combo in my mind

I have several fits with that type of shoe... although mine are not black. I posted them on other communities months ago so I would have to do some research and see if I can dig something up for you... I wear them very casually...

I like it! Very summer-ish haha... Alos, not meant as an insult or anything, but you look younger dressed. You seem happier in these pictures
And I agree... The shade of blue of your socks is awesome. I have been looking for something similar but haven't found a pair yet... 

Trust me, under any circumstance, anything that makes someone think that I look younger is just fine by me . If I'm reading your comments corrently, you think that I look younger in more casual clothes - or at least happier.

Best of luck finding socks in that shade of blue from yesterday - I am sure that they must be some out there.
