I think I've made a major fashion mistake today. I'm wearing pinstripe pants with leopard print heels. I've gotta think two patterns was a bad decision.
I think you're good as long as the pants are neutral colors. Mixing prints is great.
Oh yeah, especially with the subtle stripes, I like that look a lot.
And I want your shoes. BRB, gotta shop online...
good look...
two questions:
1. black jeans/brown boots: my brown boots are kinda dark, so i'm not sure how i feel about them with black jeans. am i being silly?
2. my cousin is getting married next saturday. all but one of my suits looks shitty on my because i've lost some weight, and it is black. it's a party/going out suit (well tailored, slim fit, flat front, etc.). the wedding is in the late afternoon with a reception that starts in the evening. if i'd thought ahead i'd have bought a new light grey suit from indochino, but i didnt. sooooooooo my pref would be black suit if that's fine, but i would be willing to go buy a new suit off the rack this weekend as my tailor could turn it around for me before i leave for home on friday. if it helps the wedding is not black tie (would be easier cause i could wear my tux), but the groom will be wearing a tux. thoughts?
I really want a briefcase, not a messenger bag, to use when I just need to carry around a few light items or laptop. Want something thin and classic. Problem is the ones I like the most are in the 500-700 range, which I can't swing right now.
This is a leader, but is $600.
This is the cheapest I like, but wife doesn't like it.
For boots - I'm a big fan of Timberland Boot Company, which is a line from Timberland reissuing classic hand made American boot styles. I'd wear nearly all of them (unfortunately, my favorites - a reissue of Colrain boots - have been discontinued).

If you want something a bit dressier, but you can still go casual with jeans ... the Allen Edmonds "Dalton" boots are just killer
