I don't like camo jackets or cargos but I do like the print for women's jeans and slim fit pants on guys...I like when the pattern is taken out of the military context and used as just another print. And I am big fan of the green palette. I have no issue with the pants.
I would choose a blazer in the blue family before gray, a really light blue or a steely blue (but careful to not get into periwinkle!)...I think gray would weigh everything down, too. I just took another look at the tie, too - it's hideous. The whole above the belt thing has to be looked at.

so literally nothing about the picture of russell westbrook
if we want to start talking about having 'daring style' or 'paradigm-shifting male accessorizing', lets' start as far away from the NBA as possible m'kay?
Speaking for myself - I don't give a damn about daring or classic - as long as it looks good. I just took a quick look at this Westbrook fellow's past outfits...he isn't really too wild; he's playing with throwback looks and falling back on present-days trends, too. I feel like he has a good eye and good taste, it just needs a tad refining. Like someone needs to be there when he takes off his clothes to say "Wait a minute, don't put on those pony-print pants just yet. I have another idea."
i'll eat the slim fit part, because i'm as guilty as anyone when it comes to wearing anything slim-fitted, but to suggest that it's a good look for guys to wear a women's print jean is regrettable to say the least. whenever i look in the mirror, i ask myself if i'll be embarassed to see a picture of myself in 5, 10, 25 years. and despite the implications of 'safety' or 'blandness', i assure you that it more than possible to make a statement while not looking positively ridiculous.
i even tried to greyscale the 'look' to see if it could be fixed.
I didn't mean for men to wear women's jeans, I meant I like the camo print on men's slim fits and women's jeans.
i didn't think you did. just saying.
making clothing or shoes work within the parameters of mens style will ALWAYS have a better overall effect than stepping outside of them. i'd rather be the coltrane than the davis.
Also, damn you guys like to hear yourself type/talk/mastUrbate.
Are you the same dude who has posted countless pics of his countless shoes and how they look with specific socks/slacks/record jackets/etc? Or am I thinking of some other strutter?

Ooooooh burrrrnnnn! It's me, same guy. I'm a hypocrite. Big time. It's a good thing you're not my Facebook friend! You think THIS is bad...
But yeah, in my mind it's different. I'd rather see people one-up each other with pics than with vivid descriptions. Just my own personal preference.

That's cool.
The floral pants are pretty bold. What would you wear em with? The yellow brogues?

Not sure yet, when I tried 'em on originally (at the Trina Turk store in Palm Springs), I was wearing blue Prestos and a white v-neck. They looked pretty fly with that. They went on sale a few months later and I ordered them online. They need to be slimmed, hemmed and tapered up a little 'cause I ordered the wrong size up accidentally. (Fortunately, my lady's a seamstress so she's got it covered.) Definitely something simple, basic and subtly. Definitely NOT the brogues.

the whole thing is disgusting.
i have no problem with that whatsoever. now it's time to recognize the distinction between "different" and "disguting".
you've spent a whole page trying to justify a look that is poorly put together. time to think different.
Justify is the wrong word. Critique......dont get it twisted.

I've said it before about this pic and I'll say it again - the worst thing in all this is the satin and straw mess on the right.
even the cat lady on the left seems to have it somewhat together.
Basketball shoes in (almost) any context other than basketball just looks goofy.
b/w
Everything this dude has on is completely disjointed and random.
Some of you dudes have horrendous...or rather "different" taste in kicks.
I own those Florsheim x Ducky Brown shoes Nick Wooster is wearing. I also own these:
I've only worn the shoes a couple times. Pants'll have to wait 'til the weather's right.
Also, damn you guys like to hear yourself type/talk/mastUrbate. (Batmon, doesn't your phone and/or computer highlight those errors?!)
More so than anyone else who posts on a message board/FB/Twitter/etc.?
What does this even mean?
If we don't post, the Board dies, if we do post, we just like to hear ourselves talk? We're having a conversation - what is the issue?
