That's not so bad compared to what you can do with a zip fly at 5AM and/or drunk.

I was the same way at first, but it's actually very easy to unbutton them all at once. It also takes me less than 5 seconds to button back up. Yes, I just timed it.
Also, luckyboyceo has a great point.

Gaf, I would like style advice. I've been getting mixed opinions in the real life.
Should I shave my head?

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I had been meaning to show y'all those camos I just never had a full length mirror to do so.
I wouldn't, but I'm a fan of longer hair. Btw you should check out the Men's Hair thread, there are some really good styles in there that you could probably pull off without shaving your head.

Didn't know there was such a thread. Thanks brother, I'll check it out!

Why the long case?
Woah cool pants
This is something straight out of Final Fantasy
Liking this a lot. I'd never be able to pull it off though, sadly.

Two quick questions:
1. Light summer-color crew neck sweater underneath a light summer blazer, yay or nay? Almost bought a couple Uniqlo cotton cashmere v-necks today before I saw the crew neck versions. I don't feel I get the shirt under a v-neck to work, and although I like the "nothing under" look, we'll just say I could be a stunt double for Tom Selleck in Magnum PI.
2. Matching a scarf with a plaid shirt. If I'm wearing a plaid flannel shirt under a solid winter coat (let's say peacoat), how should the scarf match up? I want to do a pattern since the coat is solid, but once the coat comes off you hit double-plaid and I hear that's a no-go. Or is this OK because you're likely immediately taking off the scarf too?

Yes. If you don't like it, hair grows back. I miss being bald, but my family wasn't as keen on it as I was.

How's the jacker look with the sleeves up? Or is that a faux pas in your book?
Also love how your place is an Ikea showroom! I went for the black wood equivalent.

Glad to see Dark Souls getting into the fashion scene.

Ended up buying a grey turtle neck today Im not really sure why. I tried it on for the hell of it and my gf liked it. For £7 I thought what the hell...
Got some black jeans, you can wear black jeans with brown boots right? I cant seem to get it to look right to me. Maybe its because Im so used to how my blue 511s fit and look or something? I cant seem to tuck stuff into my boots either without it looking like total ass either..
Ill try and put a pic up in the morning.

Definitely, but it's much better if it's a bright, rich caramel brown and not like dirt brown.

Damn.To be honest I think I need to take them up an inch or two as they are pretty long.
Tkmaxx bargain at £15 it was hard to say no as my gf can do the alterations.

If they're slim or skinny, just roll/cuff 'em to the top of the boot. It's a good pairing.

Looks like a trash bag.
Yeah, I was thinking that.
Still, looks kinda cool for a Gothic club I frequent.

Hitting the bars tonight, this shirt/combo work? It's one of my Express work shirts but I think it dresses down.
Bam Bam Baklava

Works for me.

The combo is fine, nothing flashy, but fine. I'd probably tuck the shirt in though.
The shirt looks a tad big to me though, particularly in the arms, and a little bit in the body. You might try on a size down next time you're at Express just to see whether or not it makes a difference. It could also just be how your standing, hard to tell.
Deadly Cyclone

It's their large, I guess it wouldn't hurt to size down as long as the arms stay long enough. I like the quality of their shirts though, even if I can only buy them when on sale.
Also I have a dark blue one if you guys think that'd be better than grey.
Edit: lmao. I can never tuck shirts into jeans. It just looks so odd to me. No one around here seems to do it either. It's in my head lol.

Yeah but when he leaves it untucked he's sending a message. Like, look at me world I'm leaving my shirt hanging out what are you gonna do about it. He's just being badass.

The problem is that dress shirts are traditionally cut long because they're designed to be tucked in. The more length to the shirt, the less chance it has of ballooning out like Zekes said. From what I remember, Express shirts are generally a little bit on the shorter side, so you might be safe, but I can't tell you how many bros I've seen standing outside of clubs with untucked dress shirts and cuff links that look like total idiots.
You should try it and see how it looks. Might take awhile to get used to but I think it'd look cleaner.

Nah he needs a tie to go along with it if he's going that route. Untucked shirt + poorly tied loose tie = the ultimate "look at me world I got style and ya'lls don't" move.

If he adds the tie then he's gonna look like a total tryhard. This is so subtle it blows people away without even trying.

i have the same problem so pretty much always wear some sort of outerwear to cover it up a bit. thankfully it's cold enough here most the time for this to be practical
