Same thing as walking into a dive bar where the clientle can’t afford rent, and you got a guy dressed really nice throwing his money around like its water in their face and buying them a drink when they can’t even afford to buy you one.
I don’t mind wearing a suit if I’m nominated for a Nobel Price or an Emmy. I don’t see the need when going out to dinner or to a PTA meeting.
Geez, carrying a huge chip on your shoulder really ruins the line of your suit.
I just went through GQ’s style guide for October:
Look - JEANS! They also have a nice pair of Purcell tennis shoes as well.
Hmmm - funny, even GQ sees the value in a nice set of casual clothes.
I work in tech, but in a customer facing role. So I have suits (no ties worn though) that I toss on for when I am speaking at events (which is about every other week). I also have sport coats that go with either dress pants or jeans. My shoes are all over the place, but are nice leather.
In the office? Jeans and a dress shirt.
On the plane? Jeans and yet another tech t-shirt
At a conference? Suit or Slacks plus jacket, dump the pants for jeans in the evenings typically.
At home? Shorts and a t-shirt (which is what I have on right now).
Steak joint? Jeans, nice shirt, jacket (sometimes a high-end t-shirt under the jacket, Left Coast style).
If I go full suit and add a tie, I am either speaking at a Finance conference or meeting with Investment Banking firm about whether we want to do the paperwork for an IPO yet. That or a nice wedding or funeral. I do own a nice tailored tux I admit, but I wear a Jerry Garcia vest with it.
Did you read my post a while back where I said to dress nice, does not require a suit all the time? You can put on a nice shirt and slacks and look great. Even a nice pair of jeans with a nice shirt looks good. I like leather blazers to go with that combination btw.
Funny, never been thrown out of a dive bar for buying a round. Then again, I didn’t start judging everyone when I walked in based on how they were dressed.
Sounds like you are fine and have good taste.
What I am saying is that there are certain places where people get offended if you are spending too much money and making it look like you are throwing that in their face.
I remember one time I was in a little place and the bartender told me “Can you tone it down a little bit? Our customers don’t have a lot of money and you are making them feel uncomfortable buying them round after round.”
This was after I bought the 4 people total in the place 3 beers.
Congrats, Algher. You passed.
Then why does it feel so … dirty?
Did you shower this morning?
Nice jeans with a jacket and a high end t-shirt or dress shirt is fine. I prefer the tight V Neck dress t-shirts. Black is a great color.]
Also dress it up a little bit with a gold or silver necklace for men.
Now you have GOT to be kidding. A necklace? What is this, Jersey Shore?
lol
If you can pull it off why not? HAHA
:smack:
Yeah, that screams “class”.
He makes the folks on Jersey Shore look good. The guy’s a tool. He isn’t even worth knowing.
Word.
Yes, but I am going to shower again I think.
Well you seem to be pulling off this trolly plagiarizing persona pretty well.
Though you should have picked a different name. I was suspecting you a troll the second I saw your name but this is the only place I can call you what you are. You are a child rapist.
Seriously, your first post is the OP of this thread which you started in GQ and your only other posts on the board are in this thread so the name of GQ ELITE 33 was not a good name Ms. Troll.
After you get banned and you want to troll again I suggest you go with a more ambiguous name.
Also tell your other troll buddies to try to at least make this game a little harder. This one really was too easy.
A bit metrosexual, are we?
