Suit jacket with jeans.  Tips for not looking like a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)?

I wear a blazer with jeans constantly.  Have never tried it with a suit jacket though.  What does your jacket look like?

I was checking to see how it looked.  Something doesn't look right to me.

It could be your shoes. They're terrible, like you just got done skating at the local skate park and had to run home real quick like to meet your moms new lover. I'd suggest some type of loafer.

I do. There's a plethora of reasons why I chose my statement. It could be the poor quality of your cell phone picture taker thingy. It could be the fact your shoes look bulky. It could be that my brand new macbook doesn't have a good screen quality. I was strictly commenting on the fact that your shoes look like bricks. Big black bricks.

it doesn't look right because your jacket and shirt say "i'm going to my graduation" and your jeans say "i'm going to sirloin stockade".  to break it up, make your top half less "dressy" (plaid shirt, perhaps) and make your jeans more dressy (dark denim, with some GOD DAMN break to them).

also, your shoes can help accent the whole "jacket w/ jeans look".  a nice pair or chuck taylors, perhaps?

Damn, SD was right, you do have a lot of good advice!  But no plans to go to strip club, however with the crew I'm rollin with, I can definitely see us getting drunk and deciding on that.

never really worn a jacket with jeans, but wouldn't it look better unbuttoned?  jeans too baggy, jackets too big.

i always thought it looked better with your main shirt not being a button-up.  like a v-neck or graphic tee.  looks more sharp.

it doesn't look right because your jacket and shirt say "i'm going to my graduation" and your jeans say "i'm going to sirloin stockade".  to break it up, make your top half less "dressy" (plaid shirt, perhaps) and make your jeans more dressy (dark denim, with some GOD DAMN break to them).

What does this mean?? ldiq

hopefully i shouldn't have to explain what dark denim is, but this link should give you all you need to know about "break".  maybe it was just the angle, or the presence of the weird fabric bunch at the knees, but his break looked too high in the picture.

solution: khakis.

or, if you're insistent on jeans, make it something more like this...
(https://goemaw.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Famansworldco.com%2Fwordpress%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2009%2F05%2Fmns_1_-_brad.jpg&hash=219a2c026d93c095c3f59e18007e097af17f2b0a)
and less clunky shoes would help...boat shoes/loafers would be ideal.

khakis?  it's a bachelor party, not a First Communion.
Title: Re: Fashion Experts
Post by: EMAWmeister on September 27, 2010, 03:31:42 PM
Jeans are too light, and way too baggy.  Get some dark levi's that fit around your waist, nothing loose fit.  And go with brown loafers.


And just in case you're a complete tard, make sure the shoes and belt match.

Definitely no khakis. Do not be Nard Dog from the Office. Go for the House look. You don't look bad, but your jacket is a bit on the big side. Definitely unbutton it.
