Cool enough = in a band Not sure many other dudes could pull of the look w/o looking like they were taking a desperate stab at :style:I should have taken more pictures on Sunday. It was a clinic in "trying too hard".cutoff jeans >>>>>>>>>>> jortsIt is tough to pull off, but if you are cool enough, you can indeed rock the cutoffs.
I didn't buy it from there, just used the links to show what it looks like. I got those shirts for under $30 a pop at NM last call stores.ETA: Don't really like the fit of BP and most of what I used to buy from there didn't hold up that long.Question Walt.

I actually shop mainly at smaller boutiques like HEM for jeans http://www.hemjeans.com/land.htm I'm super picky about jeans since I wear them most days out of the year.If not Norstroms, do you mind if I ask where you do like to shop?Or better, what's your "normal" :style: for:Now I know why I stopped shopping there.
Friday at work?
Saturday night for a casual dinner?

Funny enough I have found a few things at Target of all places.
Puma store
Lacoste although not as much since most have the Izod logo on the front of the shirt which blows
I mainly shop now at a Neiman Marcus outlet store here in Austin.
I work from home
I like Hugo Boss, Boss, Paul La Fontaine, John Varvatos but also have different brands. I am not a slave to any particular brand but have found it harder to find stuff w/o logos on them.
I mainly wear jeans but like twenty four standard shorts. I got a few on sale shorts at REI that I like to lounge around in.
Casual dinner don't really have a typical style but usually a nice pair of jeans with a thin black button down shirt or short sleeve black Hugo Boss. All depends on where I'm going or what I'm doing.
If I wear a suit it's typically Canali
My goal is to look good dressed up or down and not overspend on clothes.
Sure I left a lot out
Being in a band certainly doesnt hurt the cool factor.Cool enough = in a bandcutoff jeans >>>>>>>>>>> jortsIt is tough to pull off, but if you are cool enough, you can indeed rock the cutoffs.

No need to call names and yell. Sorry I touched a nerve. And I can pull of the denim short look.you don't happen to be a Florida Gator fan do you?

Neither. No cut-offs, no muscle shirts, no tucked in shirts, no belts, no mullets. The natty lite is OK tho. Maybe I need to take a picture and let you decide if I am pulling it off or not.Left or Right?http://curveballsforjesus.files.wordpress....s-and-natty.jpgNo need to call names and yell.

Also, they refer to shirts and shorts as "bottoms" and "tops"
Yea hit that place at the right time and you can strike it rich. Varv has become way too expensive I agree but I've found some incredible deals at NMLC.I actually shop mainly at smaller boutiques like HEM for jeans http://www.hemjeans.com/land.htm I'm super picky about jeans since I wear them most days out of the year.If not Norstroms, do you mind if I ask where you do like to shop?Or better, what's your "normal" :style: for:Now I know why I stopped shopping there.

Sure I left a lot outEverytime I drive up from Houston on 71, I stop off here. Some good deals if you hit it at the right times. In Austin, I love going to By George (when they have their big sales). Been a big fan of Varvatos since the early 2000s. It's crazy how expensive his clothes have become. A shirt that used to be $100 or so is now $200+. Varavtos Sample Sale in NYC = 25% of my shopping budget for the year. Got a Varvatos tux there in 2004 or so for $300.

The more guys that wear them, the more wimmin there will be for the rest of us.Jorts are in. Deal with it.
FAILGirls, especially <30, notice labels and brand names. It doesn't have to be crazy or outlandish, but IMO a label can be very positive thing.Yes and No.I personally DESPISE clothing items with brand names and logos showing on them (shoes are hard to get away from it though). The bottom line is, higher priced designer gear is just made with better materials, structured better and has more attention to details which all equal :style:. I don't buy anything strictly based on a name or price point, I buy things that feel and look good on.....unfortunately more often than not, these types of items have a higher price tag and designer name associated with them.lots of this in this threadKris Van Assche, Dior Homme: “Dressing to show what one has rather than who one is.”![]()

They are effectively the same as fanny packs, wife beaters and Tevas with socks. Same exact thing.tonydead said:I've only lived in Louisiana a year and have been wearing good looking denim shorts in Dallas, Denver and Portland. Maybe you are from the east coast? I had no idea that some people put denim shorts in the same bucket at fanny packs and wife beaters. I'll never be more comfortable in anything than jeans when I wear long pants. And if it's OK to wear something in a pant why would it be any different in shorts?

One thing I can't give up tho is my black tank tops. Please help, if I wear some :style: shorts that you've suggested is there something sleeveless that is acceptable?

Makin' some progress GB! I'd like to see some transcripts of that conversation with the gf.

I'm personally not a flip flop fan, but they are fine. (no socks though!) When wearing shoes with shorts, the less sock showing the better.Flip Flops?
