This may or may not be the correct thread, and lord knows my description probably wont be helpful but……

I see a lot of you wearing bracelets etc.

I have a leather braided bracelet but admittedly I cant figure out how to tie it.

Basically one end has a hoop, and the other end has two loose “strings” that are leather like laces on Sperrys.

How am I supposed to get that on my wrist, secure it, and then make it to where I can slip it on and off?

Help..

Anybody have experience with the J Crew Factory Herringbone Sportcoat? Some negative user reviews on Dappered have me scared off, but the $60 price tag is tempting.

How come I assume you aren't a 46r though?

 

[sarteaga0408]

^ the Herringbone is tempting at $60 but I think I may get the lambswool v-neck for $15 instead from J.Crew.

Neat switchblade comb, dude. I've never seen anyone else with one besides myself. Everyone I show that comb to gets a laugh out of it. Definitely a cool conversation piece you can keep in your pocket at all times

when I was in elementary school we ALL had those! A few years later though, they banned them in the school system

In regards to hair...I use grants pomade and love it.
They have a Matte Pomade that is very similar to crew fiber but I like the Grant's version better. And if you're going for a more slick madmen style the medium blend is amazing. Its a family business and I've had a great experience doing business with them. They even featured one of my pictures on their facebook

Where did you get that comb from? I need one of those.

Im not at home, but this is basically what the bracelet is

My boy copped a suit for interviews and stuff.. My god does he look foolish... Way to big and the shoes were horrid!

But you can't tell him nothing when he's wearing it. He thinks he looks so good.


I got a pic but I can't out my boy like that

The Chopper Suit?

  I got several homies like that...I just let them swag...Confidence be at an all time high...

But, yet they quick to say my clothes are tight and fitted.

Anyone who got 484 jeans from jcrew, how does the fit compare to Levi's 514 or 513? I'm looking for something between those two.

For today's pitch..

Staple "Pigeon" pendent.

 

[typerpinoy]

you should get a dressier belt. the one you're wearing looks very out of place

Dat royal blue

thanks dude.

what do you recommend?

the one i have on is my everyday tanner goods belt lol

thoughts on the suit fit anyone? it's from club monaco

 

[typerpinoy]

i think its mostly the roller that throws off the look. a simple rectangular or square shaped single prong buckle would look much better

 

[SC kid]

Where online can i get a quality navy blazer?
Like a modern fit to wear with jeans if i want.

Max 300$

Long time lurker and fan of this thread.  I've stolen a lot of ideas from a lot of you.  Sorry about the horrible pictures.  I'm not the greatest with lighting, angles and all that good stuff. 

Critiques are welcome.

 

[pinoy732]

For today's pitch..

Staple "Pigeon" pendent.

the sleeves on jacket looks a tad long. shoulders and waist looks good but pants probably could use a tapering depending on if the opening is the same from the knee down.

 

[omgitswes]

How would velvet loafers look with a wool tux?

Is this store in Bama?
Any chance you'd be willing to back and grab a pair for me?
