Dressing better

[jkissi7]

Thanks man it's still surreal opening up one of your fav mags to see yourself in there , just goes to show anything is really possible. Last year this time couldn't even phantom being in a magazine let alone GQ.

I believe in the sky can't be the limit if man already walked on the moon.

I've been lurking this thread for the longest and I've seen a lot of stuff I'd like to add to my wardrobe. But quick question for my dressing better brethren; what's a good choice of footwear to go with a button-up/polo+chinos rolled up? I know a pic along with the question would help but don't really have the time to snap a pic and post. Thanks in advance!

you can pretty much grab a cardigan anywhere nowadays...H&M has em for like $20 at most I wanna say.  Otherwise, Urban or Heritage 1981 will have em for cheap as well.

good looking out man...those beeswax are super tempting, but i kinda wanna grab a pair of black DB's...ahhhh, decisions!!!

It's Spring...go with the Beeswax.  I have both and I can say that for every time I wear the black DB's, the Beeswax gets worn 3-4 times.  I really only wear the black pair if my top is gray or black.

Too much black on the black Clarks DB....i just pick up a pair of steve madden daiton boots which has the tan sole ...IMO making it a bit more flexible to toss it with almost anything

Thanks a lot guys appreciate the support

Lol Valentino did I ask you if you needed help?

The mens shop is a great work environment with great products I can't complain. Have to start from somewhere

Navy suit from Topman $210. For that price with that white shirt and some brown shoes, this is a good look.

 

[ubuibeme]

Size down .5 on the Clarks DBs correct?

 

[frankie valentino]

Yes you did, I asked you to retrieve a small from downstairs, but your manager beat you to the punch. Can't hate, I wouldn't mind working at a place like that values customers.

 

[dunkaroos]

0.5 down, yes.

You work at the J. Crew Liquor Store?  I've been wanting to visit that place.

something about Topman that never hits a cord with me.

I think the better fabrics & brands are spoiling me.  On top of the perks of North Jersey, record # of shopping malls per sq mile, and my keen eye on sales/coupons.
Used the Banana Republic 30% coupon yesterday on 1 item, Silk & Linen vneck $10, down from $60

Letting the wife decide the shoe.  Props to Jkissi, had no idea he was a NTer, one of the better GQs in a while, The Penny Pincher's Guide to Better Style was made for me.
My favorite rule was No. 9: "Online or Off, Know what you're shopping for in advance.  That way, you only spend money on what you actually need."

 

[ubuibeme]

Just called Banana Republic and they're giving out codes for online purchase.

I also called Piperlime and their promotion is invite only
