grkBoy Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I own one suit. I wear it for interviews or funerals or some special occasion. Otherwise, yeah. It's t-shirts and jeans. I don't even think I have a pair of khakis anymore... It all depends on how you wear it...and if the females you pursue will like it. I'm sure there are women who love cute guys in casuals over the "nice clothes". I mainly aim my comments though at guys I see who go out on dates in their "comfy" clothes, while she's all dolled up, and then these guys wonder why she won't see him a second time. 3
fortyninethousand322 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 So she owned only sneakers? what about if she had to dress up to go some where she wore sneakers? I don't think she ever had a situation where she had to dress up. She wasn't allowed to go anywhere without her parents unless she was going to school (this was in college mind you). She had a presentation once to give in one of her classes and she wore a button up blouse type of thing with jeans and obviously sneakers. I guess that was considered "dressing up".

I saw one date like this with my friends around last Christmas sometime at a restaurant. We were wondering whether it was a blind date or an OLD one

I mainly aim my comments though at guys I see who go out on dates in their "comfy" clothes, while she's all dolled up, and then these guys wonder why she won't see him a second time. I can imagine basketball shorts and a running shirt. Pretty comfy but I'm not sure if it's dating attire. I mean I'd dress up if I went to a nice dinner or something along those lines. But all my dates were coffee "dates", or hangouts on campus. Hardly an occasion to go all out.
KungFuJoe Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Fashion sense is win/win. Seriously...there is nothing bad that can possibly come from having good fashion sense. At worst, the woman doesn't care. But at best, it can be the difference between making the cut or not. 1
iKING Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I like shoes probably as much as a woman who is on the lower end of shoe collecting. There's like 5 pairs I frequently change between depending on the rest of what I'm wearing. Not because of this myth, just because shoes are neat. Beyond having a bit of an odd-ball sense of style, shoes and hair are like a necessity upon leaving the house. Strangely enough, I can recall a few times I've been complimented by women on my shoes. As a whole though, I don't think there's many who will judge a man entirely based on shoes, if you dress poorly overall that may be another story however. Not for all, but for some.
Lonely Ronin Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I have seen a lot of guys get all uppity about being judged on their clothing. I think the biggest reason for it, is their style doesn't jive with that of the women they want to date. for example, I have seen a lot of guys dressed like zuckerberg here walk up to women like these at bars, and then wonder why they got shot down. zuckerberg: http://www.all-leo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/zuckerberg-worst-dressed1.jpg the ladies: Download Wallpapers, Download 1920x1200 blondes women jeans fashion celebrity high heels chain link fence denim clothing 1920x1200 wallpa Quality Wallpapers,Hi Res Wallpaper,High Resolution wallpaper Download Wallpapers, Download 2560x1600 women jeans plants high heels arielle kebbel 2560x1600 wallpaper Wallpaper ?Free Wallpapers Download if a woman spends a lot of time making sure she looks good, she is going to expect the same from the man in her life. 2
StanMusial Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Sounds like a frumpy chick:sick: i need a stylish sexy girl plain janes dotn do it for me The ones that can pull it off are usually very attractive though. I knew a girl once that used to wear sh*tty cutoff khaki shorts and slobby sweatshirts but she was still the hottest girl IMO. Her skin was flawless and tanned and her features were so delicate and even. Even with the sh*tty clothes you could see a good body too. Nice big full boobies. Most of the girls that knew her creamed their jeans over her bf too.

Aerrie Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Well excuse me for the freakin' typo! For crying out loud, how about a post that's on topic?! It is not about a typo, everyone makes typos. The line you used is widely used in this way. Especially by teenagers who cannot be bothered to type the full thing ("could not"). For many of us around the Internet, it has become an equal annoyance to things like SWAG, YOLO, GANGHAM STYLE and such. In any case, I did not mean to offend you, but maybe my message will save you some disrespect later on Sorry for off-topic everyone.
Divasu Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I shop at thrift stores almost exclusively. I put together <$10 outfits out of designer clothes (sometimes including the shoes) I get compliments on my shoes or outfits all the time from women at work. That's so damn frosty...

The Zuckerberg style is pretty much how I dress, except for the shoes. I'd either go with solid black sneakers or hiking boots. I don't find that unacceptable unless you're going someplace nice for dinner or someplace fancy. If you're going out for a day at a museum or to a movie, Zuck doesn't look all that bad. The heels kind of throw things off with the women. They're dressed fairly nicely though.

fortyninethousand322 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 How old are you? 25. I'll be honest, I look 35-40.

I have seen several guys with really expensive cloths on that still look horrible, because it doesn't fit well, or the colors don't work well together, or he is mixing styles that shouldn't be mixed. 2
fortyninethousand322 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I dress somewhere between the first picture and the second to last one. Except minus the v-neck. I'm not European. Unless I'm playing basketball or at the gym. Or at a ballgame, because I where a hat and an O's shirt there. And I go to none of those places to meet women.

There isn't anything wrong with your fashion sense, and it probably has little to nothing to do with your ability to attract women, or lack thereof (no offense).

That first girl looks particularly fashionable? I guess it's subjective, because it doesn't look like there's a major difference there in terms of style, the girl is just sitting there with a try-hard stuck up wanna-be model's expression with what appears to be a scarf looking thing and a button-up shirt and jeans.. If I was dressed like Zuckerberg in a bar and saw her, I'd only approach if she didn't look like a nasty bitch. I wouldn't feel too "classy" for her, that sounds lame and snobby. That girl would probably be left alone anyway, or hit on by her snobby male counterpart. The second one just doesn't impress me? She's wearing plain boots, jeans, and some weird japanese kimono looking thing. Some people would probably think she looks silly. I don't hate it, and I'd probably like it if I liked the girl, but I'm not intimidated by her dressing like my female friends did when they were in their mid teens. 1
KatZee Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 It's all about looking put together and presentable. You call pull that off with as much money, or as little money as you want. I personally love TJMaxx and Marshalls. I don't shop in designer outlets. My wallet can't handle that! So I don't date based on the "label" a guy is wearing. I will however, REFUSE to date anyone who thinks it's OK to wear socks with sandals, or velcro sandals. No. Just no.
Lonely Ronin Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 but does that style mesh with your personality?
fortyninethousand322 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 but does that style mesh with your personality? For me? Not sure. I'd like to think of myself as a serious intellectual type. But then again, I like sports, hiking/mountain biking, changing my own oil, sci-fi stuff, that kind of thing. So I'm not sure what my personality is exactly. I just liked what I wear because I think I look best in it. I've never liked how I looked in khakis and polos or fancy suits.

I don't hate it, and I'd probably like it if I liked the girl, but I'm not intimidated by her dressing like my female friends did when they were in their mid teens. I knew a girl who wore similar "kimono-esque" style clothes. Once during class she kept tying it and untying it over and over. As if she were disrobing. Honestly, the times she did where just a shirt and jeans, she looked a lot better.
ScreamingTrees Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 but does that style mesh with your personality? If you're addressing me, I don't care about style. I almost always wear jeans because what else am I going to really wear? Especially in the winter. If I was to suddenly be more fashion-minded, I'd have to shop like some other posters here, buying cheap-ass clothes and making them work. But I do usually wear "daring" clothes, because I like colors. I don't care what people think, and no one has ever really said anything to me. I don't dress like a fruit loop, but I'm not rocking 50 shades of grey. I care more about how comfortable something is.
TheBigQuestion Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Most women in their 20s that I see aren't really all that dressed up when out in public unless they're at work or at an event of some sort. Nightlife is obviously an exception. But generally, I see a lot of women in sweats when out on the street, grocery shopping, and just going about their business. There isn't some huge divide where every guy walking around looks like Marc Zuckerberg (I think his face is a bigger dealbreaker than his funny sneakers ) and every woman is dressed to the 9s.

I don't hate it, she doesn't look bad, but am I supposed to bow down to her for being a fashion goddess? Please! Forgive me for my insolence, I shouldn't have come along on this date with only a clean t-shirt and well-fitting jeans!
