Dressing better

 It doesn't help that it coincidentally follow your fit pics. 

Just curious Nii, how many shoes do you have in rotation. It seems like every time you post, it's a pair that I haven't seen before (or maybe I have but forgot). 

Also, how often do you get them polished? I know with a big shoe rotation, the shoes needs less care so I'm just curious how often you get clean it up and put new polish?

I read somewhere that AA sells t shirts at wholesale prices.
I'm searching but I'm not finding anything, any help?

i probably have 15-20 in regular rotation and another 30 or so that are more specialty shoes ... winter boots, chukkas, bucks, summer boat shoes etc. i'll do some counting when i get home tonight and edit this post. Waay too many shoes ... its embarrassing, i know 

And yes - because of the number i have, i honestly dont do a good job of polishing/topying etc etc my shoes. I always tell myself i'll start taking the ones that are not topy'd to the cobbler, but i procrastinate. I also need to do a better job at polishing ... to increase the life of the shoes.

Same goes for me, I think I only polish/condition once every 10-12 months. 
No need to be embarrassed about having too much shoes, your on NT, the land of people buying several pairs of the same pair, I'm guilty of this too.

That's OD.

Those would be dope if they were solid.  Not with shorts though.  Joints could be a funny story for ya'lls grandkids though when they see the pic.

I'd definitely would like to see how the LV Elans look with shorts. I remember this pic and it just looked weird with shorts.

smh if that's the basis for not wearing them with shorts.  To dude who posted them, I think the fit was fine IMO.

I still say his proposed fit would be alot better with just some navy boat shoes. Sperrys or Sebagos.

Nike Toki ND

 

[rfx45]

Cardigan still too big and it's not even slouchy big, just a size too big but more fit pic of the Tokis.

Dimnuts - Just stop. You dont know how lucky you are that the regular posters in this thread are fairly nice people. Dont let the rest of General get a hold of you.

RFX, not that my opinion means much but the pants tucked in the boots looked hella good on your first try. That whole nonchalant look to your fit was piff. The second time around...not so much.

Ayo, Elkin...wear some pants bro.

The super wide open collar doesnt do it. Nice Tokis, I really need a pair.

[dimsum9]

I usually just go with a white tee with cardigans, I'm trying it out with collars though.

san diego- get off my balls, I'm just getting open comments that I could use to to change it up.

 

[persiafly]

Stopped by Goodwill today, picked up these ties for $1 each. The one on the right is apparently Christian Dior, checked it out online and seems legit. It's basically brand new. Don't sleep on Goodwill!

RFX - If the boots are a preview of the fit ... then i gotta agree 

But you know whats good about personal style? Failing and learning ... continually till you perfect the art.

Keep stylin'  
  

 ...he's just rocking them way too tightly laced for them to even be slightly tucked in...

^the tongue flipped is a bit much...but whatever

^ try lacing them only halfway & not tuck in the pants as much...

and while i was looking for those i found and slight dug this guys cardi/henley...

Idk what happened to my post, but here goes again

Info on the grey striped cardigan? I'm a sucker for striped cardigans.

And just my opinion, but if you're gonna go w/ the buttondown shirt w/o a tie look under a cardigan, it's best to find a buttondown w/ a button collar and leave the top button of the shirt undone. It' will prevent that flaring effect that you have now.
