Dressing Better Vol 2.0

Nice simple fit Truballa

Good fit Blinkin, I'm about to pull out my light blazers as well.  I would prob go with shirt with little more color
 
Nope. Once they are dirty, they're kinda done sadly.

Pretty much why I prefer bushacres, even though they're nowhere near as comfortable.

I bought a pair of blue DBs that I really want to wear more, but after one day of walking in the city, the dirty black soles just piss me off...I can't stand beat up/dirty looking shoes :x :lol

How much can you spend?  The Stafford line at JCP is decent for cheap.  But otherwise, Cole Haan on sale or Allen Edmonds if you can afford it.  They have 2nd quality sales quite often

Speaking of Allen Edmonds, this particular outlet store, not company wide, is having 20% a single full priced item:

Allen Edmonds Jeffersonville

8665 Factory Shops Blvd.

Jeffersonville OH 43128

NYC brethren, who are your go-to tailors for tasks like slight alterations on denim?

I recently picked up some dior 19cm in a size 30 and I'm swimming in them compared to the 19cm size 29 I own :lol

I want to take them in to slim them down, just looking for a good tailor.
 
UNKWN did you do any oil treatment to your DBs? Mine is full of scuffs, lol. 

Yup! I said both had a recent coating of mink oil.

I love scuffs on Desert Boots. Gives them character like fading of dry denim.

Took some pictures for you man, not the best but I hope it helps. Desert Boots are the darker pair, Bushacres are lighter. Both have a recent coating of mink oil.

 both look great thanks. i guess it comes down to which are easier to clean

does anyone buy shoes off ebay? i need a legit check for this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Allen-Edmon...9971400?pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&hash=item3a7d47f6c8

also is it worth it (retail $299)? i'm trying to negotiate with the seller about the price
No one fakes AEs. You're good. However, I feel that you are overpaying for that pair due to those creases. I've seen better condition pairs go for $100-125.
thats what im thinking also. the guy said 150 shipped. im going to try to negotiate as low as possible though.
 
Fit for today's meeting. Rugby sweater, Rugby club-collar shirt, Paul Smith tie, Kenneth Cole tie bar. Not pictured are the black Sean John chinos (lol) and some oxblood Florsheim cap-toes I thrifted.

shhhhhh dont tell everyone lol
This ticket thing is getting out of control. I went to the local footlocker to get one and they asked what ticket I want. They're raffling off the KD something and Barkley posite? I don't even know what that is. :lol in the 1 min span I was in there, there were 10 other kids asking for raffle tickets. I will be wearing my TR jeans with the big horse shoes and a Celtics jersey.
 
Lol. Ok here's the rest. Didn't have any black pants besides jeans so found these for $24 at Marshall's over the weekend. I just liked that I can kind of dress them up or down. Debating getting them hemmed, but I don't think it's that serious.

Not sure if it's just the pic/angle but I think the pants could use a taper man
