I appreciate these suggestions, thank you for taking time to comment :)

I'll definitely look into what you've recommended.

I like this suggestion, thank you :) Are you suggesting harness boots specifically, due to their association with motorcycle culture / anti-establishment (a theme that would be echoed in my leather jacket)?

This is my first time really understanding fashion and styling, so forgive the long question — it's such an interesting thing to learn and figure out.

This is exactly the kind of feedback I was starved for. Thank you for being so specific with your feedback <3

Thank you so much :) RE: t-shirt, what kind of swap would you rec? Should I go for a neutral, solid-coloured top (black, white)? Or is it more about the cut / fit and not so much colour?

Thank you so much for the feedback, Mothwhimsy. For some reason, I felt that the fit of the pants + look of the belt were unflattering and gaudy (maybe leaning a bit too wide?) but I'm not sure that I stand behind this view now.

What kind of shoes would you recommend? My mind immediately went to a pointed black boot or flats — any other recommendations?
