Is there a belt that's like, you wrap it around like a normal belt, but you hook it in on the like, front of one of the hips, wrap it back around and buckle/button it up again so that the second loop hangs around your leg at an angle? Not a leather belt, more like one of those sown ones that you'd wear with khaki shorts.

Does anyone understand what what I just said would look like?

Is that a thing?

I kinda really want there to be one.

This is an utterly fascinating thread. Seriously, I haven't seen something like this in a long time and it feels great to have something like this back in General.

 

Anyway, as for what I wear, just typical t-shirt and jeans. I tend to be boring with clothes because I would ruin nice clothing fast probably.

Also all my jeans are a lot looser because of a recent weight loss, I wear a belt in public but in my house they keep falling down. It's a weirdly nice feeling, showing me all the time I'm not as overweight as I once was I guess.

Can I get recommendations for super comfortable shoes (especially the back where is rubs against my ankle)?  I wear running shoes because anything else is really freaking painful.

I've had some nice Nike Roshe Run shoes. They're pretty plain: just black for mine. I normally don't like wearing branded clothing, but I tend to make an exception with running/tennis shoes. Anyway, these shoes I'm talking about are really airy, they'll feel a lot different than a lot of the stuffy tennis shoes out there. The tops a bit thin, so it might be susceptible to wearing down too much (my right shoe's gotten a hole at the big toe), but on a whole, they feel really nice and are just generally soft all around- especially the heel, which is exactly why I picked them up in the first place.
 
Anyway, back to my fashion style, because it's lazy.

I'd like to get a belt like this it one were ever made:

I REALLY like jeans, but wear khaki pants whenever I run out before laundry. Being in a cold climate, these tend to come out early in fall and stay late in spring (It snowed yesterday. I'm serious. This is America.) Shorts I have are all either plaid or khakis. Or rather, khakis and plaid khakis. I may not know what a khaki is. The point is that they're comfortable and that's how I make all my clothing decisions.

Socks are either black or white, pretty straightforward there. I like to have my shoes be black– I tend to subscribe to the idea that if someone doesn't notice your shoes, and they're comfortable, you're wearing the right shoes.

For long sleeved clothing, I have a few different things. I have quite a few hoodies of varying colors– one of which is a shawlneck that is clearly meant to be worn under a vest, but I've yet to get on that, so it's just a bit strange-looking. I have a few light sweaters colored black, lighter blue, and navy/maroon/lighter blue stripes. I have 2 plaid shirts that should probably be worn underneath those, but I never seem to because I'm always in a hurry in the morning. I've also got this one shirt of which I can't seem to really find a word for. It's long-sleeved, midly heavy, collared, and has a short zipper at the neck to the bottom of the sternum.

Anyway, short-sleeved shirts: I have a few striped polos and a few light button-down shirts– two which are just one color (dark blue & grey) and two or three that are plaid. I don't normally wear just regular t-shirts by themselves cuz I'm a bit chubby an f*** it, I'm a bit self-conscious about my weight. So as for undershirts, there's a lot of different colored ones (long & short sleeves) that I just tend to wear with whatever color it works well with.

I don't go shopping often, and I don't like spending money on clothes unless I truly have to, either, so what happens is that I just tend to just mix and match what I have, and I don't think I have that good of a sense of style, so whatever suggestions I can get, I'd be glad for the advice.

Bro these kid's don't even know you, post some of your other shit. 

 

the clothes i posted arent even odd future-like lol 

 

He's not saying that your clothes are particularly bad, he's saying that when you pair up all of that shit it doesn't look good, and he's right, it doesn't. 

 

As I said prior, I live in NYC, so the urban street-wear scene is pretty massive here. I myself own some shit from Crooks & Castles, BLVCK SCVLE, Brixton, etc. 

 

The whole street-wear movement is basically one that implies being different by wearing flashy floral print tee's and bright colors to stand-out, the ironic thing is that it's gotten so prominent that I see that shit everywhere now.

 

Like I said, I love a good floral print but rather than pairing it with bright shorts, a camp hat, and fucking vans I would dress it up slightly and ensure that every other piece is a solid so as to provide complimentary contrast.

 

Example:

 

The top you posted / Top Layer / Pants / Shoes

 

This way you still get the pop of color and the contrast but it doesn't look busy and everything actually compliments each other.

It's not incredibly formal but it isn't necessarily casual either so even if you drop the blazer it's still a solid look. 

 

EDIT: I just looked at the links Night posted. Son, you need to post pics of you here. That look is actually pretty dang amazing.

 

Completely disregarded this part, my bad. I wasn't considering it before because I assumed people would find it incredibly egocentric but I'll get some shit posted.

God, you all make me feel like a plebe.

 

I've got absolutely no sense of style, and I find myself wondering every day how to dress.  I don't think I put too much thought into anything I put on in the morning; usually it's something simple and a pair of jeans with some socks and trainers.

 

Yes, I call them trainers.  Sorry about that.

 

I'm particularly worried about my fashion choices in the near future, as those are key to having myself pass, and if any past pictures are to be evidence, I have absolutely no idea how to dress feminine.

No, he's saying this is your style. 

 

And you can't expect me to actually take you seriously when you use terms like "basic" bro.
