Dressing Better Vol 2.0

[wj4]

Some of my Everlane shirts are experiencing bacon-neck so not too sure on the quality.

My J.Crew shirts, on the other hand, wear like new.

Ironically that seems to be the general consensus now on SF as well. I'm not sure if they swapped their fabric suppliers, but the quality seems to be going down with the newer ones.

With the cooler weather, I always lounge around in a white or heather gray long sleeve t shirt from J. Crew. They make a great base layer too. I only use one of each until they get worn out, which takes a really long time.

Food for thought for the Nas Polo guy: with all the time spent trolling, you may want to pick up a book you're interest in and enlightened yourself. You can never get enough education. I personally have 3-4 books lined up after the one I'm currently reading. Education is a never ending process, my friend.

What kind of books do you read? Always wanted to start to reading for pleasure but I don't know where or how to start.

All your side taunts and bully behavior takes away from the thread. Don't say nothing if it ain't for the thread fella.

Does anyone know how jcrew blazers fit? This listing says meduim and not a actual # size... And it's Harris tweed, would that mean the sizing is different?

IMO, the best place to start is by reading a book that you have read in the past that you really, really liked.  That will help you get your long prose reading rhythm back (as opposed to the short articles common on websites).   Since you already know how the book ends, you can put it aside and start on something new. if you are eager.  Reading a book that you really like, and have read before, will help you remember how much you have enjoyed it the past.  Then you'll be hooked!

Depends on what you like. I'm a fan of classics so I'm working through the Times top 100 literature list. You can also read book on personal finance or stock since it's generally applicable no matter what your profession is. Or go through bestsellers list for more contemporary fiction.

Thats actually a dope fit

Nice clean fit. Still can't get myself to fold my pants that high. I like the look; just not on me.

What brand blazer is that?

 

[Stay Lowkey]

A fit from last week. I'm on IG too.
I follow all my NT brethren back: http://instagram.com/lt_junior

Clean fit, you look like Dule Hill

What do you guys think about these creative recs? Kinda look like a pair of Balenciagas I saw a few months back. Not sure I want to spend $190 on a pair of CR's.

Not feeling those Creatives, especially with the pony hair.

Not a fan of Creatives in general, though.

Yeah, it sucks for me to say it because I was an early adopter and strong Everlane apologist. But their recent trend of decreasing quality and increasing price/costs is really killing the brand for me.

I feel like management is losing a bit of their way.

quick question. 

can wingtips be worn with jeans like the dessert boot? or should they stay with more suit like attire?

SECRET SANTA ANNOUNCEMENT…

If you haven't done so, please finish your Secret Santa shopping ASAP. We would like for elf's to receive their gifts before the christmas holiday. With Christmas soon approaching we advice that people send out their gifts to their elves no later than December 11th. In some cases, your secret santa may have notified you or made it known that it might be past the deadline (such as Carlin's elf who is getting a pair of MTO AE's…lucky bastard).

So about them rain jackets.... hooded parkas to be specific. Green, Black, or Off-White? It's gotta last me for this winter and the next two. Can't have a color that will only be trendy for a little bit.






I usually don't be askin since I can style but ya know. This is a 2.5 year decision I am troubled with.

I'm really eying that white but its sold out. Hoping for a restock

What brand?
