Dressing Better Vol 2.0

I'm trying to do something nice. My older bro dresses like you guys and was looking for these shoes. He said the lowest he has seen them was for $250. If anyone knows a better price hold it down.

^that's a nice gift man! Unfortunately I have no idea if they've been cheaper anywhere else as they don't necessarily fit my personal aesthetic. I'm sure some other guys have an idea though man.

A few of the pick ups from our trip to Spain. Bit the Carmina bullet, well my wife AND I bit the Carmina bullet, their shoes are exceptionally beautiful. I have some pictures from their shop which I need to import from my card along with a few hundred more lol. I'll post the Carmina pics in here once I do.

Better pics later; quick iPhone shots:

I'm liking this Wallace and Barnes jacket from J Crew but I'm not too familiar with the sizing. I'm normally a medium in J Crew but don't know if this line runs the same. Is anybody familiar with Wallace and Barnes sizing?

They fit the same. W&B is just a line they made up to sell more expensive items and profit more.


Happy New Year, gents :smile:


I guess folks are still knocked out, street is super empty right now :pimp:

No work today so relaxed outfit for me:
 
Working then taking a train into NYC for NYE. One of my resolutions for 2014 will be to further improve my wardrobe with the help of this thread. Happy New Years DB fam! Be safe tonight! :nthat:

Pleats look good. I could never get them to look that good on my size 12 foot.
 
been watching a LOT of old movies lately..those fat super short ties dudes wore bug the **** out of me
 
Just got some skinny taper uniqlo jeans for $40, real nice for the price

I've been waiting for the straight fit selvedge made in japan pairs to show up but so far nothing. Thought they would be in stores and online by now.

And for finding Wolverine 1000 Miles for a good price, I heard sometimes pairs will pop up on Sierra Trading Post. Also wouldn't hurt to check amazon.

$250 is a great price for those IMO, you're going to have a very hard time finding better than that. There are factory seconds on sites such as Sierra Trading Post once in a while that go cheaper. I just got a pair for Christmas and absolutely love them, great gift choice.

My parents loved that place. Most of my friends go there too. Any reason it's popular with Filipinos?
 
Some Carmina Shoe Porn for you guys; still have a few pictures from the store that I need to upload but will include them in the thread once I have. Also a better picture of my personal pair. Pics are from the Barcelona store.***

Yeah bruh. Would you happen to be a fellow filipino? I feel like all of us are bout that Hop Kee Life :lol:

Yessir. Lol. Always tons of Pinoys in there. Definitely clutch after a long night of drinking. Dope fit, btw.
I have no clue why man. My parents put me on. All filipinos just love that place :lol:

Almost went the other week but the homie illmatickal wanted to go to the shanghai joint next door. That was cool too, but Hop Kee is still my preference. Different style of cooking I guess.
