Dressing better

[rufiorufiorufio]

my thoughts are that it is so boxy, that too much tailoring would be invovled esp since its big all over. think about shoulders take in, sides taken in, the proportion of the button placement, possibly the sleeves.

honestly just invest in a fitted one bc these coats are classic anyway ya know?

Anyone have insights on where to buy jeans?  I'm a 36/34, prefer a slim(not skinny) fit, with a slight boot cut.  I've been rocking Deisels and Express, but only a few washes that I really care for in each.  INC from Macys are decent as well, but each looks exactly like the other.

I need to buy a pair or two of Alden's when I have the money.

Those Gifford boots are $995. Just those and the RL wingtips are about $2k with tax. I used to have two pairs of those too but sold them.

Damn.  I underpriced by a lot.  

Didn't know those RL shoes were hitting close to 1k.

Hit a few TJ Maxx's up today:

Some Dockers for $12.99, fit quite well I must say!

Also picked up a Theory suit.  I was a bit surprised to see any Theory suits at that location, let alone my size...36S, super duper hard to come by.  Anyways, not really sure if I'm going to keep it or not.  Fits pretty well OTR, would do work obviously to the jacket and pants, still pondering what to do with it though...$250 for a Theory suit is tough to beat.

Yea I feel you on that...might as well just take it to this semi-`consignment place and see if I can get some money back for it since it's in great condition....looks like I'll be getting that jcrew peacoat now

And Rsd, what kind of shoes are those with the dockers?
