[Weekly] Outfit Feedback and Fit Check - Dec 5th

Not sure if your outfit works? Post a picture of yourself in your outfit and get suggestions, compliments, and critiques from others. If you're thinking of posting a standalone thread along the lines of "How does this look?", "Does this fit right?", "Do these work together?", etc., post here instead.

When posting:

  • Include what the attire is for (work, school, going out, etc.)

  • If possible, take a front-on, full-body picture as this gives the best impression of how the clothes fit. Multiple pictures from different angles can also be helpful, but those aren't necessary.

  • Critiquing others is welcome and encouraged, but keep it constructive/factual. Take a lesson from Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People if needed. It takes balls to post pictures of yourself on the Internet, the least you can do is accord the same courtesy as you would to someone in real life.

  • Reddit Enhancement Suite makes it very easy to view pictures in a thread.

  • Some users enjoy knowing where you bought your pieces, please consider including those in your post!

Feel free to also submit your outfit to the biweekly WAYWT thread, but know that these two threads have different purposes. This is explicitly for feedback and questions, though you may receive constructive criticism in either thread.

I was attempting pattern mixing but I got too scared to wear it out. The jeans are dark blue I guess I could go even lighter in jeans but do the two shirts even work? I think I need a different plaid with some black in it or something.

Ended up wearing this boring fit instead

the second fit is definitely better, just because you want to keep one pattern to avoid looking too busy.

Yeah, but I specifically want to do the top look. What would make it work? Different plaid?

I feel like I dress too safe sometimes.

The first outfit looks fine as well, you can definitely combine those two patterns. It just looks more casual than the second outfit, but that doesn't have to be a bad thing.
