I'd say there's no right or wrong way .It's really up to you and what you feel most comfortable with.
I personally like keeping the collars on tuck.

keep my collar tucked in too. actually i wear button down collars with most sweaters to avoid the collar popping out.

I am 5'11" and as of today weigh 203 ... i fluctuate between 195 and 205 depending on how well i've been hitting the gym. Between mid-december to mid-january when i was off work for a month (therefore no discipline to hit the gym) i went up to 210ish (holiday foods dont help). My clothes are so closely tailored that if i go anywhere out of the 205 range, my clothes start fitting poorly (at least that is what my OCD eye tells me). My goal is to hit 195 and stay there forever ... pushing to 200 only as an extreme. I definitely do envy the skinny guys who look good in ANYTHING as long as they try a little.
I am a chubby sartorialist ... lol.
I think you are still way ahead compare to most of the people I see.

20 lbs more and I'll be on my Bond tip for as far as fashion goes..
but I'm not buying anything other than white/black vnecks and Levi's until I hit 175lbs.. So tailored clothes have to wait.

To be honest, those Gourmets look bulky, then again it is based from AJ XIII.
I would avoid those if possible. Go for a simpler and more low profile sneakers.

Those aren't bad but I'm afraid that the toe is a bit too square for my liking.
I'd go with Sperrys pr Sebago for boat shoes personally.
Check out piperlime, they have these on sale for $59:

25% off at Banana? I'm not too sure because I usually just get sales update when they send me an email and I don't remember any recent sale at BR.
They did have the 25% off at GAP but it was only on select items iirc.

I agree it just depends on the shirt/sweater. The sweater I was wearing today had a wide(r) neck opening and the shirt corners (not button down) were barely covered so I pulled them out. I'm with Niidawg though and if my collar is button down, then it definitely stays that way to avoid the collar coming out.

What I absolutely commend about most of you guys on here, well the regular contributers is that your wardrobes complement your personality(well as much of it that I can render from a message board), I think this aspect is also a part of dressing better...and a funny moment I had, what if niidawg and rfx switched wardrobes could you imagine?

No kidding. I tried to scoop some RL last week only to find out that they didn't have it in stock this morning. Hooked me up with $25 though, so I guess its not all that bad.Originally Posted by shake n bake718

Is 20$ a pop affordable for you? I have been rocking the A&F plain v-necks for a few years now and I have found no substitute. They have the best quality for that price IMO
