Clothing and Apparel Discussion Thread

Hello,
thought I'd make a thread where we could post outfits or accessories, links to online shop sites etc and discuss things like that, just to see what other people think of our tastes etc.

I just found out about http://www.aliexpress.com
--- after consulting some friends, apparently it's a very dodge site, with low quality clothing

Where I finally found some floral print shirts, and they're cheaper than I was expecting.

Also,
opinions on the anchor and thing below it ? (disregard owl and infinity), pictured below? Positive/negative?



and these two shirts:





Does anyone have an expensive good quality leather jacket ($400+ or GTFO)

I got mine reduced from like $300 to $200 at Tarocash on swanston, I really like it for going out on weekends. I usually combine it with a plain white shirt, dark jeans (not black!!) and black shoes.

Where I live its winter now, so I'm more into winterfashion at the moment and for the shirts you posted I'm too white anyways. You don't know how much I'd give to look as good as that dude.

Just for everyday cloth I'm mostly wearing a coat similar to this one:


with a random T-shirt or polo, just depends on what is washed and dark coloured jeans

For shoes I often wear these ones, took a picture of them after I got them:

It's really not that hard to quantify..., but I believe that being raped once is not as bad as being raped five times, even if the one rape was by a gang of people.

I actually love them floral shirts! But then again, they aren't going to look good on everyone.

Right now, I'm searching for a good pair of loafers I can wear with my chinos but unfortunately I haven't been able to find any that match.
Oh well, I'll keep looking!

(Image removed from quote.)

have you had a cheaper leather jacket?
I wanted to buy one, but I've heard the difference between cheap and expensive leather jackets are huge in terms of quality and how the jackets age. I don't want to blow 100-150 on a bad product.

for winter i really want to buy a trenchcoat and goth the shit out of it, like so:

in case it doesn't work i've gotten an argyle and cable-knit sweater as backup.

I havent bought anything from roger david before, but zara.. I think they're shit quality and not worth the price.


White chinos or khakis + button down shirts, thoughts?
Some say, white chinos are "gay" but i think they're great for summer/spring weather.

also the model in my first post is Rafael Lazzini, brazillian supermodel.

The closest substitute i found to the floral shirt: http://www.aliexpress.com/item-img/FREE-SHIPPING-MEN-S-personalized-floral-print-shirt-male-british-style-men-slong-sleeve-clothing/677796483.html#

also, thoughts on this? http://www.aliexpress.com/item-img/Free-shipping-Men-s-Slim-Luxury-Stylish-Casual-Shirts-M-L-XL-XXL-Light-blue-Pink/604793517.html

i'm enjoying the pattern revealed when the sleevees are rolled up, looks like he owns a casino haha

edit: seriously, how cheap is aliexpress?
I'm amazed

I love chinos on guys, no matter what the colour. Like you said, they are perfect for the spring/summer weather.

My brother recently bought these red/maroon chinos from new york which he has been wearing with a trench coat and these awesome velvety loafers. He fit in really well in the new york scene. Haha. Too bad he can't wear that combo in Melbourne until may-june.

Also with Zara, it's super expensive in Australia. It's waaaaay more cheaper in Europe. The quality is so-so. I got an overcoat from the Zara in London but the buttons came off within 3-4 times of me wearing it.

Should look good, even better you're tanned, white chinos or khakis are a good way to wear button down shirts that you don't wear much but want to, because the white suits a lot of different colour shirts

And it doesn't look gay, even if it did, chicks love gay HAHAS

I'm a brown guy and I have that red/maroon colour as well. :P I love it! But lets be honest, a bright blue won't suit me will it? :)
I dunno.

Those blue ones might suit if you wear sort of darker earthy tops eg; maroon, brown, black, but it's not the best look but definetly doable, seen it before, , can look good on some people, just make sure your other clothes aren't all bright too or else you'll look like a highlighter pack

like honestly, if you're unsure about wearing bright colours, you really shouldn't. i always stick to earth colours and on occasion when i do wear bright ones, i feel like im sticking out, even if it doesnt look all that bad :/
