Dressing better

[ryair max 1]

I've really been wanting to have a few of my older Perry Ellis' and a Kenneth Cole shirt altered. I'm a broke college student, so I don't havemuch income to buy new clothes so I need to keep what I have (and I like the pattern on a few). The question I have is what exactly do I tell a tailor in orderto have the exact work done? I would like the sleeves less baggy and would like to make sure it does not balloon when tucked in. Any help would be greatlyappreciated.

Finally found some short sleeve button ups that fit me nicely. Picked these up for $45 a pop at Neiman Marcus. Their sale section is pretty cool, although55-60% still off won't exactly be cheap still.

never liked short sleeve button ups .. but that's me.
mad I missed the DB sale, and the 514's on UO don't have my size.

That's an easy job. Tell her/him that you want the sleeves and width taken in. They shouldn't charge you more than $20 for the job perpair. I pay $15 a pop.

I had to restrain myself from spending more.

They had John Varvatos boat shoes and boots on sale too, for low $100...was so tempted.

NSF has been treating me well. I bought a pair of corduroys from them earlier in the week and the fit was on money.

I tried on Rag & Bone pants and shirts...and man they fit super snug.

Yeah R&B pants are very slim, I'm usually a 28-30 in pants and I'm a 32-34 in R&B.

Which NM did you visit, Topanga?

cool casual look i think it would look better denim jeans.Oh not the exact jacket btw.

I like this but when I checked out the detail on the website, it looks like the material might grey cotton jersey material, like the grey sweats material. I am not sure though but I have seen another label use the same material and make it into a blazer. I'll check it out next time I visit Zara.

My fiancee was offer a position as a district manager at Zara at the Grove or Coasta Mesa. I'm about to come up major, there stuff is sooonice!

Yeah. I was bored today so I went to see a friend in Northridge and went to Topanga afterward.

I also noticed that the prices on Fred Perry stuff went up quite a bit since what I paid for them a couple of seasons ago.
