For real. Retail or maybe like $125 these would have been purchased already. Not messing with $220+ for them.

Where you fat before?  Looks like a suit someone would rock after they lost some weight.

been slim all my life, probably bought the suit too big. Had if for a few years, during the not so "dressing better" era for for me. Thanks for your input

Couple things:
shirt collar is too big, the shoulders are too big on the jacket, yes the jacket is too long and way too big for you. the pants get them tapered a bit, length looks good and the shoes are really nice i think.

thanks for all the advice, after looking at the actual pics i can see i need to do a lot of work. Funny thing is that i did get pants tapered

. Ultimately i might just buy another suit anyway

Going out to 2 club/lounges this weekend. Me being a strictly Sneaker guy, I don't have any shoes. Both places....Sneakers aren't allowed.

Short notice and I don't have a ton of cash to spend at the moment, can ya'll point out some suggestions? Shoes that look good with both slacks AND jeans, and if possible...somewhere in the $100 and lower range.

I have a Zara and an Aldo right next to my job, and 5th ave isn't that far off....how are both brands?

P.S. Gosling's outfit on the right

I kinda wanna bite his entire outfit on the right.
Any suggestions on a tie for this fit?

Almost certain its GAP. I have thats very similar to or is that exact shirt from GAP.
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 H&M. Jcrew doesnt have triple stiching in the shoulder area

Props bro. Is it still in stores? Couldn't find it online.

lucky, it wasn't in my store.  I hate that H&M doesn't have an online store in the U.S.  2 hour drive to the closest one for me

If it isn't too much of a hassle, can you snap a pic of it? head to toe would be good if you're up for it.

Would you care to explain the humor in this pic as I fail to see it?
Fit is proper imo. Except for the popped collar, other than that its coo.

The shirt looks pretty nice and is a good alternative to the j. crew one.  Probably fits better too.  I was dumb and almost bought the j. crew red chambray.  Even with a discount, I shouldn't be buying a casual shirt for $70.

I know a lot of this is personal taste but those shoes and shorts made me

The fit on those shorts is horrible, and the navy polo color that doesn't work with the bright colors in the shorts.
Polo brand shorts are made for guys with extremely slim builds so up-sizing is a must with most pairs.
A clean white oxford with the sleeves rolled and a canvas or silk belt would have been much better.

Madras is one of my favorite spring/summer patterns when it's done right.
