Dressing Better Vol 2.0

My two CW's.

Peep the dimple Henny

All depends on body type, what look your going for, and what you feel most comfortable in. People will give you varying answers.
Some of my jeans have a leg opening of 6.3-6.4 inches with lots of stacking. I like Kanyes style when it comes to denim, so I try to emulate his look.
People might hate but who cares

Stacking looks good with tapered inseam like that.

I prefer 7" to 7.5" for normal slim pants including jeans but I don't have that excessive stacking look.


Re: dimple, I think it's easier to obtain on thicker ties or at lest more pronounced. Of course the material has to do a lot with it, as well as construction.

Pretty menswear stuff, right up there with shoulder pinching issue on jackets.

Hank,

You should post outfits, man. Sounds like you're menswear all the time

 

[Hank Scorpio]

but seriously... What is a tie dimple though? And what's a good one look like? Never heard of that before just now.

Some pics for reference

This is a Drake's tie

This is the BVLGARI

I'm in Menswear 4-5 days out of 7. I would post pictures, but I'd have to cut off my face. Much like what I did up top.

Besides, I don't know how to take whole body selfies like some of you guys. It looks like an art

My man gets it

Why cut the face? We already have RFX!

You can lean your phone on something and use a self timer app.

I just stand my phone up on it's side and give myself 10 seconds on the TimerCam app.

Well, yeah

Not to be an ******* or douche, but it's normal in my office/industry I'm in. Especially when people judge you based on what kind of tie/shoes you're wearing. Perception is reality in this case.
Interested in looking into CW. Will check out more when I get home. Looks promising.
+1 for mentioning Drake's. Totally forgot about them. I actually have 1 Drake tie and it produces perfect dimples every damn time--Effortless. Never owned RLBL, but heard good things.

I would also add that they're typically a good investment, you may not be able to fit that same suit in 10 years but you sure can wear that tie

 

I bought dozens of ties in my first 2-3 years post-undergrad but I hardly wear them anymore, I may be in the minority (actually maybe not in this thread) but I've always preferred to wear a tie vs. no tie with a suit. In my current role I would be looked at strange if I wore a tie every day so I've had to adjust. 

In addition to the ties mentioned already, I really like Celine ties, it's a great choice for those who like tie prints similar to Ferragamo and Hermes but without having the exact same tie as everyone in the office

DB, where can I get a decent pair of loafers with a nice slim silhouette? 

I want da Adrian Air Aiden joints but I can't find that color anymore. Looking to spend ~$200 - preferably less as these would be for going out in.

I found my pair at Nordstrom Rack for a $90 about a year ago. Cole Haan has a very similar silhouette to the Air Aiden, it's the Air Hudson (http://www.colehaan.com/hudson-penn...olor=Dark Brown#cgid=sale_mens_shoes&start=33). Anything slimmer I would look into Carmina or these Jack Erwin joints posted by dappered.com yesterday: http://www.jackerwin.com/products/abe-penny-loafer-dark-brown-suede

Celine tie are actually kind of nice. I've came across a few here and there and never pulled the trigger. When I think of Celine, I think of those handbags with the protruding sides. Usually you'll see super slim blonde chicks who are down to snort a few lines and then pop a molly later that night with those bags

The one's I have seen are quite nice though.

I totally forgot to mention ties from Eton yesterday. I bought a few last year and they're absolutely fabulous ties. The print on their ties are different, but very subtle.

I know exactly what you mean 

There's an ongoing observation between my friends and I regarding women's bags and their vices 

Longchamp, Michael Kors = Cranberry + Vodka 

Real LV, Gucci = Cocktails or Wine 

Chanel, Celine = Lines 

Hermes =

It seems like the more $$$ the bag is, the harder the drug

At the girls who think they're doing with the MK bags though
