I am feeling the so-called "metrosexual" style of dress...

metrosexual i gotta a laugh at that. you could have just said metro and you would have been straight. but on the reals, the whole metro look is played. what im seeing now is a lot of people rockin them sorry ass ed hardy shirts for like 60 bucks. you can get them shits at nordstroms rack for like 30. True Religion and Seven Jeans aren't cut for women of color. Have you ever seen a BGOL figure (Semi BBW) in a pair of them? The shit aint happening. But I do like those Affliction T-shirts.

I got a blue one like this

I think the shirt out of the pants may be for them big belly ass mfs...

Nah you reaching...somebody earlier hit it on the head...I hate the "confinement" of it in an informal setting...I'm an active person so if I wear a shirt tucked in all day without a jacket or a blazer I'll start to look ramfled up after a while...wearing your shirt tucked in is not for every occasion imo...
 
BWAAAAA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! I don't know why but this bus had me crackin up.

Anyway, I dunno about the shyt bein called metro-sexual. Makes me think of faggots. I prefer to call it "A grown man doin/wearin grown man things." It comes a time when every man starts dressin like a man. I went through that a couple years ago. And you're right, women LOVE that shyt. It's all in how you carry and present yourself. Plus my girl likes it too.:yes::yes::yes:

I personally like the french cuff shirts. The itialian mades ones that have the different colored collar and sleeves are the best. Them shits are a lil on the expensive side though. But well worth it. You can rock em with a well tailored suit, alone with some slacks or with a sport coat and the look fresh, crisp and clean. Many times I've gotten compliments on the links. Sometimes it becomes a conversation peice. ok, I'm done now.

I used to dress like this before...but it didn't have a "name" nor was it considered a style back then...guess I'm kinda reinventing/rediscovering my look...I still like my "hoodwear" but this "new" look for me is a nice compromise for the work place and other social settings where hood attire won't cut it...
 
I had enough of that hoodlum shit but who wants to walk around the hood lookin "nice" (like a target) so there has to be a compromise. I'm tired of trees too but they've been such a staple for me for so long. Like he said, you only live once can't always be scared to try new shit (not that I condone that gay shit).

Man yeah I think I fukked up and used the wrong word...I thought it just referred to cats who dressed trendy and shit...but I just looked the shit up on Wikipedia and it goes into some whole next other shit... :smh:
 
If you force the style, your discomfort is what's gonna be ugly.

My wardrobe reflects my past styles and present.

Bigger question: Why is everyone put into categories like life isn't static. The people I find weird are the drones/sheep that can't think unless they have a community consensus.

I been rocking these type of t shirts all summer. Wear'em to the bars, lounges, clubs. Check out holy grail and blackheart brigade too. I like wearing a shirt that I know no one else is going to have on tonight. Females notice that shit. Plus they are cut to show off muscles, so if you workout females gonna notice that too.
 
those look good. I got a pair of steve maddens from a couple of years ago. Gotta get the heels fixed tho. I have a ton of shoes that I dont wear because the heels are worn down. How do I fix that?

You have to take those old shoes to a cobbler. It might cost you though, but it's worth it for really nice shoes. It gives them even more character.

Notables:

Stacy Adams makes average shirts.
Dont wear anything by Steve Harvey.
Diddy "Sean John" Combs has an insane shirt lineup.
Donald Trumps Ties are hands down the finest at the moment.
Ike Behar's run really really tight. So go for the bigger size.
And Jos. A Bank is incredibly overpriced.

That's about it.

Peace and good luck.

I agree with all of these points...and

Every man should have a good tailor. Nothing is worse than an off the rack suit that doesn't fit well.
 
BTW I couldn't find those Stacy Adams so I copped some Steve Maddens...shit look decent and I generally don't like their casual shoes but these look nice...since I have the digi cam out if any ladies want any personalized dick pics holla...just kidding!:lol:

Might have to cop some of those. Never really liked the shoes before but Steve Maddens have grown on me.

In all it sounds like you going for a more grown up mature style. But please don't gay it up by calling it metrosexual.:smh: It's just the grown man style. Metro implies all that extra primping and pampering shit.
 
Shit is a change for you. Not for me, we don't call it metrosexual, u might be up the wrong road if thats the first thing that you think of. We just call it lookin fresh. Button ups and what not. You have to have some sorta dress code goin to the club, so i don't understand why your meeting females who aint used to it, unless you live in a small city with no clubs. And I hate to break it to you, but if your trying to distance yourself from "hood" clothes...you shouldn't be gettin Stacy Adams. Where i'm from, those are prolly the most hood shoes you can get. At least out here on the west.
 
Leroy you kind of old to just be changing your style of dress. What have you be wearing especially since you have a professional job? All I wear is khakis, some nice shirts, or some nice faded jeans. Nothing wrong with wearing a shirt that fits instead of that loose stuff.
 
I remember I had some Steve Maddens back in my junior year of High School. Folks was looking at me like WTF is that homey. I said just wait these gonna be top sellers. Next year everyone was rocking my style of shoes. Heck I can remember when it was different to wear a taper or even cut instead of the fade. Oh how times have changed.
