Haha. I love that imagination...

That doesn't mean that I can relate to it, though...

If I'd see you in the men's room ( tête-à -tête ), I'd more probably edge towards the exit, with my back to the wall, try not to lose sight of you and tell you: "Sorry, but I'm not into that kind of ****..."

What do you want to spend? Cheap leather shoes usually don't look that great.

I'm a teenager so don't rlly want to spend much. A piece of advice i recieved was to buy some second hand shoes, because they also have a worn look which might look better

Here's a tip, more about life in general than fashion in particular: Observe closely everything the Jonas Brothers do, and do the exact opposite.

Sure, you'll have a harder time pulling 13 year old girls, but at least your friends might respect you.

cheapest option is to get some white air force 1s and rub brown leather polish all over them.

There's a thread for $300 sneakers on here. Is not much $100? $50? $200? $20? Help us help you.

If you want to put out those kind of power bottom vibes, good for you. I don't think the brown shoes NECESSARILY mean scat play, but be prepared if someone asks.

Basically wrap it up and make sure he wraps it up and you should be good to go.

Yeah Or a thrift store. I'd suggest the latter + patience if you don't want to spend much money. Skim through the no-discussion what are you wearing today thread if you want ideas, there's lots of people who are very good at dressing in there!

A couple pieces of advice. First, there is nothing outlandish about that outfit, it's pretty safe. Ankle boots are your friend.

Secondly, if you wan't to avoid being mocked, you have to put these sorts of question in the right place. Honestly, the people of this forum have long ago had their souls shattered and improperly mended, so that one of their great hobbies is finding and running off noobs such as yourself who don't grasp this etiquette. Eventually, after participating in enough discussion threads, you can either blow Fuuma or start a thread mocking Conne to gain wider acceptance.

I assume i am right in thinking that some slim fitted indigo jeans would be best? Maybe some APC's?
