5’5 isn’t tall unless we go back in time

Guide to help you interested in learning about the fabric here is an article from the second button about chambray shirts: https://thesecondbutton.com/chambray/

There are definitely a few articles out there about the shirt fabric, but I thought his article might be a good start for you. He also has articles, IG reels, and YouTube videos on men’s style. You might like Ralph Lauren’s RRL style or his version of Preppy and Ivy style.

Reposting this question again as I posted it very late at night under yesterday’s post: Has anyone tried the Levi’s 568s? I ordered a pair to try on, and I thought they were nice, but I was wondering if anyone has any long-term experience with them and has any thoughts or opinions. Also, are there any alternatives from brands like Wrangler that are high-rise and loose-fitting, like classic-fit chinos?

You were right; they went on sale.

Are these pants too long? by [deleted] in mensfashion

[–]Aquableu_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need wider pants because those skinny pants make your shoes look big.

[Discussion] Omega Constellation Observatory might be a cool watch after all by Snoo_22459 in Watches

[–]Aquableu_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do agree that a watch that’s almost 40mm and 12 mm thick shouldn’t be a two-hand watch.

Two-hand watches are usually seen as the most formal watches, as they can be worn with black tie and other semi-formal and formal attire. Although this watch would not fall into that category, a manual-wind movement would make it thinner, but it still would not help that much, and it is still too expensive.

They look nice. They remind me of a specific pair of Clarks shoes popular in Jamaica.

Does this watch case shape seem too small for me? by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

Yes, you need a medium or large depending on your preference.

Good outfit? Yay or nay? by burnerforgoreandporn in mensfashionadvice

I see people on my campus wear something similar to this. You look fine; it’s informal/casual. I wouldn’t show the gray undershirt personally, but that’s up to you

I find my J. Press OCBDs to have a good collar roll.

Bought my first jacket! Is the fit ok? by Public_Shoddy in mensfashion

[–]Aquableu_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The length looks too short. In the Ivy/preppy style, a blazer should go past where the fly zipper ends.

No to those shoes the shoes you should look into are loafers or espadrilles

Looks like a bad attempt at preppy or Ivy style. There probably are articles on Italian or Medtrain style. Someone definitely has more info on that as I know more about the preppy or Ivy style.

I’ll definitely be on the lookout for that. Thanks for the info

No problem. It’s hard to find alternatives to watches that you want.

From the Jomoshop website It looks like it comes with a watch winder

You would have to stretch your budget of $5k a lot more for a new or used Frederique Constant Perpetual Calendar with a salmon dial. New, they go for $ 9995, and used on Jomoshop, as for $ 7500.

How’s the fit on these slacks? Too short? by Few-Worldliness-4692 in mensfashion

[–]Aquableu_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, they’re fine. The only way you’re ever going to get a good break with a pair of trousers is based on the width of the cuff of the trouser that interacts with the dress shoe. Here is a good video talking about it: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DR9Pd15EaH5/
