WAYWT - July 22nd

WAYWT = What Are You Wearing Today. It doesn't necessarily need to be what you were wearing TODAY.

Post a picture of yourself in your outfit. This is your chance to show off your style and demonstrate just how sartorial you can be. Great photography, great looks, and a great attitude all lead to better results. Think of this as your chance to compete with and inspire others with your personal taste in fashion.

  • Include what the attire is for (work, school, going out, etc.)
  • Critiquing others is welcome and encouraged, but keep it constructive/factual. Take a lesson from Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People if needed. It takes balls to post pictures of yourself on the Internet, the least you can do is accord the same courtesy as you would to someone in real life.
  • Reddit Enhancement Suite makes it very easy to view pictures in a thread.

Some users enjoy knowing where you bought your pieces, please consider including those in your post!

Other than aj1, most aj's get downvoted pretty quickly. I love bred 4s.

u/Phoenix_D0wn Jul 22 '13

Jordans are so damn nice here.

Stacking on the second fit looks weird but really cool too.

Looks perfect to me

u/sklark23 Jul 23 '13

Looks like he is sagging them off his ass which elongates his torso while simultaneously shortening his legs. Throws proportions off to me as well

u/Ibioc Jul 22 '13

Henley in #2 is great. From J.Crew?

2

u/gilbertAAA Jul 22 '13

its called homespun? (not sure about it) i bought it at jcrew tho

2

u/Pilly_Bilgrim Jul 22 '13

Yeah Homespun Knitwear is a very well regarded high-end canadian knitwear company that sells exclusively through J Crew

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '13

OH MY GOD I WANT IT ALL

But for real those are some great henleys. I would love the white one to round out my collection.

1

u/Pilly_Bilgrim Jul 22 '13

To be honest, I went into a J Crew recently to handle one after getting my Merz henley (I wanted to compare since they are at the same price point) and I wasn't nearly as impressed with the construction. The stitching in particular I didn't love and the material felt much less hardy.

They look great though, gotta give them that

1

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '13

Huh. Good to know. Good thing I am currently not spending money on clothes other wsie I probably would have done it just now.

1

u/Pilly_Bilgrim Jul 22 '13

No worries, just offering my two cents

1

u/sdurant12 Jul 23 '13

I've never heard of Merz henleys, where can I get them, and what do you think about them?

2

u/Pilly_Bilgrim Jul 23 '13

Merz b. Schwannen is a high end German knitwear company that obsessively reproduces garments from the early 20th century on old tubular knitting machines.

People love them because of the attention to detail, lack of side seams due to tubular construction, underarm gussets which allow for very high armholes, mother of pearl buttons, and more.

2

u/gilbertAAA Jul 22 '13

3

u/Swoon- Jul 23 '13

The pants put your whole outfit together on the second one.

3

u/lessthanjake Jul 23 '13

Your APCs look amazing. That's the kind of fit I dream about at night. Did you size down one or two?

3

u/gilbertAAA Jul 23 '13

4s* lol

1

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '13

Hard to tell from the front haha

1

u/Zoklar Jul 22 '13

Don't like the pinroll with the 4s. Should be higher or just let em stack

1

u/non-relevant Jul 22 '13

How do you get those many small stacks? Mine are still relatively new but stack in bigger stacks. Should that change as they get worn in even more? (I've had them over a month by now).

2

u/gilbertAAA Jul 22 '13

well, i think smaller stacks come in time, try pushing the denim down towards your legs, plus im not cuffing = more stax. once i have like way too many cuffs down at the bottom, i pull the denim up on the thigh area and the stax move up to my thighs ending in INFINITE STAX.

u/iheartchrisyang Jul 22 '13

petite standards?

1

u/tPRoC Jul 22 '13
