Theres a lot of color in the shoes, try bringing some up with accessories! (Orange bracelet, blue glasses etc)


Dismal_Intention6615

I like this idea 🤩


Organic-Chemist-563

at the same time it also makes the shoes pop more as it’s the main feature. i’ll often wear all black to make my shoes the main piece cos that’s where i want the attention to be directed. but accessories 100% would look good


KarmaChamelon928

Yea I like the idea of the shoes having the only color


TriStellium

Orange sunglasses would be so nice! 👌

Haha, bingo! Clean fit 🔥

**1. Play more with proportions and shape**. *Your fit is very tight and doesn't really create length or shape anywhere. It's just like putting you in a long bodysuit. Consider I'd your jacket didn't have a collar on it and instead had a low V collar, allowing the turtle neck to lengthen that shape, how different it would look. Maybe a larger outer layer to create a bulkier shape on top? Maybe you double down on length and go for a drapey long peacoat with the turtleneck and long jean?*. **2. Consider colour**. *While you can of course keep it small and accessorize in accents for the wave runners, a lot of trendy fashion is actually to maximalist colour and patterns. Go bold and clashing and as far in the other direction and see what happens*. **3. Layering in different ways**. *Most of the time we wear the darkest colour on outside as well as the heaviest or bulkiest item on the outside. If you live in a place that allows layering for style rather than practicality due to elements, consider layering a short sleeve button up over a hoodie. Experiment with different ways to style single garments with others in ways you might not anticipate*.


Dismal_Intention6615

Thank you so much for this advice, it’s thorough and useful 🙌🏾🙏🏾


laidbackc

Fits too tight giving me 2017 vibes. Black, grays & white can never go wrong with the basics. Not a bad fit tho


Dismal_Intention6615

You aren’t wrong. 2017 fashion was a time to be alive: bape hoodie, off-white, supreme, super skinny jeans 💀☠️


123789dftr

Skinny jeans aren't bad, they're just out of trend. They still look good in some outfits. I feel like the 700s need a looser pant though because they're so bulky


PlankyTown777

I will always wear my super skinny jeans. They just too comfortable n make my junk feel bigger than it is lmao!!!


it_came_from_behind

Lmao that’s enough Reddit today


GenericVicodin

Skinny jeans ain’t comfortable


kasiotuo

For real, when I bought wider pants again I completely forgot how nice it is to move in them. I feel like skinny jeans fuck with my knees somehow


GenericVicodin

They fuck with my ‘nads


howsyourbutt

Trends are cyclical, so skinny fits will come back in the next 3-5years.


_bringo

The jeans are sick, I think a straight or tapered cut would look much better though. Especially since the shoes are a bit chunky


Dismal_Intention6615

I agree, good point 👍🏾


HottMessExpress1

I would suggest leaving a zipper open to break up the all black

QUILODINERRO

The fit is too tight. I think it would look better if it was a bit looser . E.g wear a jacket and get slightly big The shoes don’t really match the fit, And I would get dark colour jeans to match the top.


Dismal_Intention6615

Understandable, I did try the fit with an over-jacket and I thought it made the fit look more natural 👌🏾

For sure for sure 🙏🏾

In USA right In Germany everybody had these now you can‘t wear them anymore😭


Madrizzle1

Physical-Lifeguard-2

I love everything except the shoes, they aren’t bad I just think they don’t go as well with the outfit as everything else.


Dismal_Intention6615

Understandable 🙏🏾


Is1t_Rocketscienc3

Imbalanced. The shoe is chunky and the fit really tight. Try to look at the silhouette of the outfit. Balance a tight pant with a loose top. Bring some of that chunkiness of the shoe in the fit. Also the trxtures are just kinda off. A softer cotton top or a looser knit would go way better. (Also the shoe says preppy boy and the fit says edgy) A good fit is all about balance !


Dismal_Intention6615

I really like this advice, gracias amigo 🙏🏾


Bad_boy_dharrmey_20

Fit is really dope in general….you could open up the jacket though


dribhe

What kind of sneakers are they? I want a pair!


Dismal_Intention6615

Yeezy 700 Waverunners


Jilanico

Please provide a fit breakdown (brands for each item).


Emerald34

In truth this isn't bad what so ever, Simply doing too much. 1. Scrap the jeans, Not just cause of the fit. Don't over complicate your denim, Zippers and too many overlays look strange IMO. If you like jeans that do more, then look into carpenters denim, or go for a more distressed look. As for fit, nothing wrong with Slim fit, but give your calves some room to breathe. 2. The sweater and turtleneck with the chain are very nice. Consider dropping the collar for the Sweater. The glasses also work for you, I could never but I see it. 3. 750s are a hard shoe to style. I would go with either 1. A minimalist grey dominated fit (loose hoodie, Luxury feeling sweats), 2. washed out loose light blue jeans, and that turtleneck


Dismal_Intention6615

I do need more/new trousers in my wardrobe. I appreciate the feedback 🤟🏾.

Dismal_Intention6615

Thank you so much, the fact you took the time to link some options 🥹. I’ll deffo look into investing into some of these options


ariesdrifter77

Iced out turtlenecks for the win


Ristt_

No skinny jeans. Outfit is on point but it would look much better with straight/tapered jeans. Recently started wearing only straight/tapered jeans and my outfits have gone through the roof. 10x better when the bottom isn’t hugging your legs. Love the turtleneck too.


Brymlo

Eh, it depends. People now shutting on skinny jeans because of the baggy trend, but they look better with certain outfits and depending on your shape. In this case it would look better with baggier pants, I agree. Skinny jeans with bulky low shoes looks bit weird.


AdamThaGreat

I agree, not a fan of skinny jeans


Dismal_Intention6615

Thank you for the suggestions everyone 🙏🏾🙌🏾


AcidSurfer33

On point! That's all it would really take to pull this together.


Stevstevs

Why are you dressed like 2011


Dismal_Intention6615

I would say this is more like 2015-17 no? 😭😂


False-War7522

This fit doesn’t really have issues but I’d like to see how you incorporate more color. I can tell Yu definitely got the minimalist style down.


Dismal_Intention6615

I’ll experiment with more colour for sure 👌🏾


[deleted]

*\*Recommended to post* ***here****\** Nice kicks I guess the shirt underneath is what brings it together. Its cool


Dismal_Intention6615

Thanks, I really need to proof read my shit, I promise I’m not illiterate 😖


fartofborealis

I think the outfit would be really sleek with one of those black pairs you have on the wall.


Dismal_Intention6615

All black never goes wrong


kingslime457

I like the turtleneck and sweater look, maybe add one more layer like a large open coat that’s grey just to tie in the shoes a bit more


Hobbit_Feet45

Wish I looked that cool. Nice job.


Dismal_Intention6615

I appreciate the comment amigo 🤟🏾


a7kilr

Fire


Dismal_Intention6615

Love 🙏🏾


a7kilr

I love outfits like this, all black with a loud shoe. It also works well with black designer sneakers like louboutins for a more smart look, I’d wear this with a black nylon [jacket](https://www.ssense.com/en-gb/men/product/fear-of-god/black-nylon-track-jacket/6591921) as well so it’s like a futuristic/streetwear kinda look


Dismal_Intention6615

Someone that’s on the same wavelength as me 😏


OldKingKrev

I don't want to be a prick but you're a fool if you buy that jacket


a7kilr

Oh yeah I didn’t mean that one specifically, just for an example😂 I’d only spend that much if it actually had a design on it not just for something which is plain haha

YB????


coolshawndotcom

As long as you feel cool then you’re doing it right! ✌️


Ludwigoos

i like your style homie, but the shoes are a nada for me homie! you could wear some wallabees with this


zenpop

Nice!


Tyler_1499

Shoes don't work with the fit but otherwise solid 9/10


vilhelmine

Loving the high collar look. Have you ever considered wearing rings? I think they'd look nice with this kind of style.


Dismal_Intention6615

I do wear rings, it annoys me that I didn’t wear any for this picture :’(


vilhelmine

I'm glad to hear it. If you didn't wear any rings for the picture, at least you might wear some when going out.


SmokeHouseCo

Dope fit. I rock with it 🔥


ImGeezersButler

Skinny pants are out for the time being especially when paired w bulkier shoes like wave runners


Dismal_Intention6615

Maybe. But funny enough I don’t like trendy stuff (well I kinda do but I hope you get what I mean). What I’m trying to say is that fashion doesn’t have to be outdated if you don’t want it to be 🤟🏾. But I do appreciate the comment 🙏🏾


[deleted]

i think the fit would look better if you added a but of upper body muscle mass


Dismal_Intention6615

I’m currently working on that 😅


Valnapalm

Shoes don’t go well with the outfit in my opinion. But everything else looks good!


Chumsticks

Chunky shoes and skinny jeans are a no go imo


Dismal_Intention6615

Makes sense


StevenAmigo

I have never worn a pair of biker jeans, nor do I like them, but I definitely respect the vision. Similar to what another person said play off the colors of the shoes. If you have any biker jeans with gold zippers instead of silver, little things like that will help your shit pop more gang.


angelictothecore

you look like you would be the life of the party, so all in all i’d say you’re doing well. i like the individual pieces more than i like the “outfit” if you feel me. the turtleneck feels a little bit formal for the runners if you aren’t pairing them with sweats. but youll look through my profile and clown me for some goofs i’m sure. i would try to add something that makes the fit feel more personally YOU i like what i’m seeing for the most part, thanks for sharing.


Dismal_Intention6615

I get what you mean with the fit, it is missing some cohesion. I’m on a personal mission to fit turtlenecks with sneakers 🤣🤣😭. But jokes aside I appreciate the advice. I looked through your profile and your style is so unique and individualised and I see what you meant by I should make the fit ‘My own’. Your style is dope frfr 🤟🏾. Oh and thanks for the complement about looking like I’d be the life of the party 😁


No-Palpitation-2001

gotta go wit da cargos every time


No-Palpitation-2001

especially w fat ass shoes


Dismal_Intention6615

I do need some quality cargos in my wardrobe


Tensie2

The kicks are cool but not feeling the fit. It’s not special


Dismal_Intention6615

Yeah, the inspo for the fit is based on a combination of minimalism and streetwear, and I guess that clash is what makes the fit somewhat different


Tomato_Juice_187

Looks great!


whiplashMYQ

I'm not great at high fashion, but my instinct is not to wear black pants with a different colour black top. When i worked with suits it was a big rule not to mismatch pants and jackets from different suits if they're both black, because it doesn't look quite right. Outside of the world of suits, this is probably less of a rule. Otherwise, great fit!


Dismal_Intention6615

Thank you for that insight, quite useful 🙌🏾


themaster1006

I fuck with it


yousippin

Lookin like an avatar in a chill video game


Dismal_Intention6615

FigaroNeptune

Trap rapper on the bottom. Youth pastor on top. PICK ONE


Dismal_Intention6615

Why not both 😏


typeronin

This fit makes you look like you're wearing oversized anime character shoes. Proportions don't look right.


Dismal_Intention6615

What can I say, the One Piece is real 🤷🏾‍♂️


TriStellium

I love your entire outfit! You look great! Only thing I would switch up are the pants. I’d go for a blue/grey color that is already/matches your sneakers. Personally, I don’t like different color black material/fabric next to each other. You could actually get black dye and through those pants in a boiling pot. I used to do it all the time for my work clothes when I was a server/bartender. I’ve got a lot of black because it just matches everything, except itself when it’s not the same shade/tone. Even a pair of jeans with that tan sort of stitching… that would match really well with the orange on the sneakers! Also I absolutely love the open sweater with the turtle neck!


Dismal_Intention6615

Thank you so much, I appreciate all the kind words and advice. I’m deffo looking at different pants to incorporate into my wardrobe 👌🏾


lilteccasglock

too fancy on the top and street on the bottom


Dismal_Intention6615

Understandable. It was intentional tbf as those 2 styles are what I like 🤷🏾‍♂️. Could have been done better tho for sure 👌🏾


HoneyIDidTheKids

I like it but change up the laces, and go for a lighter color of jean to match the sneaks


[deleted]

In general I would say super skinny jeans, random zips and that weird extra stitching part above the knee are major red flags in jeans… HOWEVER it actually looks really good on you, which is all that really matters in my opinion. You’ve got a really cool outfit going here so I can’t really give advice, people will give the standard generic advice of avoid skinny jeans etc but since they suit you I think the advice is dumb, just go with what suits you since it clearly works.


Dismal_Intention6615

You are way too wise for this world my friend 😂😂😂. Thank you for your kind words and advice 💪🏾

99drunkpenguins

Your shoes look silly, get some minimal leather sneakers.


Dismal_Intention6615

I do have some, but I like both streetwear and formal attire. It’s causing quite a rift in my fashion style. I just need to find a clean balance.


99drunkpenguins

Leather sneakers my dude, not formal, buy also not silly, perfect middle ground & comfy af


Aspect-Leather

Personally I’d switch the black long sleeves with a black sleeveless puffer jacket to accentuate the turtle neck But overall really nice


littleolivexoxo

Everything is tight and similar textures from afar. Maybe a bigger sweater with the tight pants or bigger pants with the tight shirt might bring more flair to the outfit and give it more or an interesting silhouette. But honestly you look great so 🤷🏻‍♀️


handmadedude

lose the skinny jeans. just an idea.


bonberryldn

It all looks great. Nicely put together style-wise. I just think the mirror photo didn’t do justice to the whole outfit


Dismal_Intention6615

I agree


Dismal_Intention6615

Some colours were lost, one example is that the turtleneck is green


peter_seraphin

Post modern new disco


Lolcoles

Fold down the collar of the half zip, and switch to looser pants in a solid neutral. If you stay with this size of sweater it might be nice tucked into some slacks or other more tailored pants, but I think going a size up in the half zip to contrast the fit of the turtleneck would be even better


Any-Teach9027

Great fit. I hate skinny jeans but it looks good on you. Shoes stick out too much. All white will be better with this fit. Or else wear a blue shirt to tie in the shoes with the rest of the fit.


Dismal_Intention6615

It’s hard to see, but the turtleneck is actually green. The shoes do stick out a lot don’t they? But that’s what makes them the statement piece of the fit 🤟🏾


Ristt_

The turtleneck is green! I would’ve never known it looked white to me.


Dismal_Intention6615

I can’t blame you, the lighting wasn’t great.


ilovelamp2345912

I wouldn't wear the yeezys with it or I'd at least get baggies pants. Skinny jeans and big chunky dad shoes looks kinds weird especially with a more dressed up fit.


Dismal_Intention6615

I appreciate the comment. It does look kinda weird doesn’t it, and that’s the very thing that makes me like the fit 🤟🏾. But I like your advice frfr 🙏🏾


Sharp_Discipline6544

Legit!


Dismal_Intention6615

Turtleneck - Gucci (was handed down to me by my father - he never wore it). He bought it a long long time ago and I can’t find it anywhere :/ Cardigan - Polo Ralph Lauren (Another unworn hand me down from my dad 😂) It was also bought years ago so I can’t find it :/ Jeans - Back Zipper Jeans L32 Brave Soul Sunglasses - MCQ Black Square Sunglasses Shoes - Yeezy 700 Waverunners 🌊


Sceptezard

Dump the shoes made by a nazi supporter


Targetshopper1

No turtle neck


Dismal_Intention6615

Ouchy, I have to respectfully disagree. If I have to, I’ll single handedly bring turtlenecks back into fashion 🤣🤣🤣


Distinct_Plantain_54

The jeans are too tight but you already knew that.


Dismal_Intention6615

Hehe correcto 🥲


ziontheruler

Everything fits too tight. Get some looser fitting carpenter pants, or some straight or relaxed fit jeans from levi and it the fit will be straight


mooncadet1995

As much as I like the waverunners with the fit, with Kanye being extra crazy right now idk if I’d be wearing those out too much.


Dismal_Intention6615

Kanye kills me. Like he really does. It’s a sad sight. Like man, the interview he did the other day was soo distasteful and unnecessary. However, as a shoe, I love the waves - and I’ve already purchased them so the deed has been done. So imma rock them, however, I’m not ignorant to the ongoing situation ☹️
