You don't need a lot of money to look good IMO. Places like, H&M, Urban Outfitters, Zara, GAP, Banana Republic and a few others all have reasonably priced clothing. If you can afford to be an athletic footwear enthusiast(sneaker head), you can afford to dress better.

hopefully theyll be wearing tuxedos, otherwise there will probably be tons of other people in attendance in black suits as well. going to weddings, a suit is almost always a necessity and so is to coordinate with what my date is wearing (if you have one), taking into account the time/weather/season the wedding will be in, etc...
GQ's latest magazine had a couple good tips for weddings, particularly summer. 1. youre probably not going to wear your coat a majority of the time 2. therefore, the focus of your ensemble relies on your shoes, tie and shirt combo, and its overall fitment amongst everything else...

Stick with brown, if you don't want to be tooo "dressed up" just play with different fits, perhaps some loafers, I'd personally would do these suede wingtips..http://www.jcrew.com/mens...s/PRDOVR~19575/19575.jsp

Picked up this sweater from a member on SF, really wish it was a Small instead of a Medium though...feels a little big in the armpit area
Love the design though...sucks.
Also looking at picking up some low bucks to match with most of my outfits better than what I currently have.

Anyone know what shirt this be and what kicks to match with it?
Beeswax Clarks DB look very nice with that shirt and khakis.
It can also be the red chambray from Jcrew, not sure though since icant see the collar, it can also be from H&M as they have a similar shirt I bought the other day.
If that's the Jcrew shirt, this is the same exact shirt in blue, a bit pricey but a very versatile and nice button up, anyways what's the rule on rolling up your chinos??...is there a specific height you shouldn't pass?
It's not Jcrew, not feeling the one on the site either. Too light.
Couldn't find it on GAP, am i to live without this shirt?

Go into store and have them call in and order for you. Right now the stores have them marked down to 29.99 x 30% off equals $21 give or take. 6 bucks for shipping. Beats the online price. Just picked up the Seattle Grey. (Was thinking about the Navy's but I already have a pair of Navy Van's Era that I threw Sperry leather laces on.
I went into J. Crew today to bring in all my recent sale purchases to have them adjusted to the 30% off sale. Got refunded almost like $70 lol. They had the Levis 511 that retailed for $98, bought them when they were $59.99, at my home store they were marked down to $19.99 +30% off which means I was refunded $50. Such a steal even though I wish I could go down one size, but a hot soak down the line will shrink them a bit in the waist.
Also for people looking for shorts, their 11" broken in chino shorts are on sale $49.50 x 30% off = $34.65 before tax. Retail is $65.
Just to let everyone know, I went into the store and they called in for me and they rang up at 49.99, so YMMV.

I wear a 12 in almost every pair of sneakers that I have, and I have G2's with the perforated leather and they are an 11 and fit me plenty big. I don't know if the canvas ones fit differently but I'm inclined to think not.
I would size down at least a half size, if not a whole size.
