how prole am i for getting $29.99 dress pants for SA?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: May 7th, 2012 8:48 PM Author: Mischievous Magical Shrine bought like 5 different pairs of louis raphael (wtf lol) dress pants at a nordstrom rack (lol) for $29.99 a pair. they are flat front and slim fit but not wool (some polyester blend).
i almost got some ben sherman slim fit pants but they were like $130 per pair. i figure i'll drop the big bucks when (knock on wood) i start full time. i feel like my body and style trends will most likely change after a year anyways.
will i be outed as a total prole this summer at my firm? i got some decent shirts (hugo boss slim fit, BB slim fit, and similar), and some allen edmonds kicks. so i shouldn't look like a total maxxanista hopefully. |

Now I only wear Rack/TJ Max type shit, and no one knows the difference. I do buy some Brooks Bros suits at their after christmas sale for about $200/suit, which is what I wear for court appearances and client meatings. I did have that tailored though because none of it fit right. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1942897&forum_id=2#20641880) |

It's like art: you can hang some $10 water color at your apt, but if you can afford a truly great modern or renaissance work, why not? it's aesthetic for aesthetic's sake. |

Altered $30 pants >>>>>>>>>> unaltered $1,000 pants OP, most PARTNERS wear ill-fitting clothes. If you have your break proper, crotch fitting properly, wear the waist at the right place (waist, not hips), and for any suit, have waist suppression done, arms shortened to have 1/2" shirt cuff extending beyond, then you will look awesome, even in a $150 banana republic suit. |
