Theory # 17 : Average looking dudes who dress well become at least 33% hotter

but doesnt everyone's definition of "well" differ?

i agree with this.

@skanko: yes, but some people are wrong.

haha OK. well i'm going to a party tomorrow night in new york. WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?!

@sosane - that says ALOT about girls. while my roommate and i's tastes in women vary greatly, we always agree that the shoes say A LOT about a woman.

hahahah i really love when a girl appreciates my amazing sneakers. it lets me know i should keep talking to her.

aw fuck i wear chucks or my velcro white royal elastics usually

that revelas to everyone that i'm a BUM

it does show some commitment and maturity.

that said, STRIPED SHIRTS are the new uniform for guys who want to appear committed to looking good, but don't actually care at all.

LAME at people who hate converse because honestly converse are the SAFE CHOICE SNEAK for everyone. TRUST

Also dudes, don't wear flip flops. I am okay with at the beach and pool, but some girls won't allow them AT ALL.

I

Frankly, had I the money for it, I'd just let someone else pick my wardrobe. I've neither the taste nor the commitment. And everything I own ends up being black, gray or dark blue.

Is that it? Am I wearing the wrong shoes? I've been wearing these kinds of kicks for like a decade now. Is it time to move up in the footwear world?

my sneaks of choice are vans.

I had a pair of nikes once. I was 11.

Aren't they WILD? I will have marshmallow hooves tomorrow

AAHAHAHAHA. OH GOD. I love it.

JUBILEE WAS MAKING FUN OF THESE SHOES AGAIN TODAY http://www.ninewest.com/Therockett/2978817,default,pd.html?cgid=1039

I still think those can be rocked depending on the outfit. i still love them. THEYRE DOWN TO $50.

Those are very MIAMI or HOLLYWOOD

you need to have the kind of bohemian look down to werk those in my opinion. Lots of bangles

marie -- well i am Miami so its cool. I LIKE THEM AND I DON'T KNOW WHY. When I first saw them months and months ago I thought they were hideous but the more you stare at them, the cuter they become.

SO WEIRD.

I enjoy boys in ties. I enjoy a tie. Also collared shirts. Sweaters. Etc.

MOSTLY I WOULD LIKE A TA. PLEASE.

THEY ARE TERRIBLE, CLEEZUS. TERRIBLE.

its funny cos jubi sent the link to me and was like "i bet you'll like them cos you're WEIRD."

AND I HAD LINKED TO THEM ON HERE AGES AND AGES AGO COS I WAS *~*~~* IN LOVE *~*~*~*

You wanna talk shoes, let's talk about these babies:

In black, dur.

Don't take this the wrong way, I love ho shoes, but those are V. Expensive HO SHOES

the whole club was lookin' at her

@al - Thank you for that. i didnt wanna have to do it.

@johnny: ?

@skanko: if it's not you REALLY TRULY, don't bother. it could be you in the future, but you need to find style that's yours. there are plenty of men who don't dress in that manner but still manage to look put together.

@jubles: those shoes are pretty boring looking to me, except for that STABBING heel.

@a.lover: yeah, sometimes things can be WERKED that are unlikely, but those shoes are pretty awful.

SHUSH ABOUT THE AWFUL SHOES I LOVE THEM I WILL WEAR THEM WITH LEGGINGS AS PANTS AND SOMETHING PAISLEY

i am kidding

I'm gonna be one of those cute girls who ONLY wears cute flats all day every day. It's gonna rule.

I don't like those that much :(

ahaah I DONT CARE YOU GUYS ARE JERKS I'M TAKIN MY BALL N GOIN HOME

those flats are cute if you're 15.

Oh Im totally a YSL whore. So is Naomi Campbell's crazy ass.

OOO CAN WE?!

that would be fun i think.

you can give me one too. then we will lol.

DO ME LIKE YOU DID SKANKO. be brutal.

no body was brutal. at all. huh?

well, I meant brutally honest, but I guess honesty isn't much of a factor.

Here are cute flats in various colors and on clearance. adorable iw/ skinny jeans and tights and skirts

SRB- I am considering them because of ALICE SWEET ALICE but seriously do you guys think I dress too much like Im' a virgin french devil worshiping school girl already?

johnny you dress like you're 20, and you are so that's fine.

you also dress like a skater, and you are, so that's fine as well.

someday you will either be too old and not a skater to dress like that, or you will be old but still a skater so it will still be acceptable.

really it's only acceptable if you're a professional skater though, once you're past say, 24.

then you have to start thinking about the image you want to project to the world. are you still a young, care-free slacker? because that's what people see when they see skaters.

you don't have to wear a suit, but there comes a time when your jeans need to fit at the very least.

@Agent Lover: I almost bought those in black. Virgin french devil worshiping schoolgirls have like the bestest style.

thats right you do wear shaddle soes

Also, I like saddle shoes.

nicks wears the yellow flats with skinny jeans. so hot

@jaydef: not true! there are many ways for men to look attractive. it's hard as your body changes because you don't want to buy new clothes everytime you drop 15 pounds, but then your clothes don't quite fit right.

trying is half of it. wearing clothes that are reasonably well-fitting and in good condition is more than a lot of guys do.

i bought my saddle shoes online so long ago i don't even know. i need new ones though, they are BEAT.

jubes those are cute!

@Agent, i never knew they were a thing until i was in college. i love all the baggage they come with and implications and such.

also, i cannot speak for all guys, but in my estimation you are exactly the right amount of virgin french devil worshiping school girl.

Do I?

They don't have em in my effing size those dill holes.

Marc Jacobs WHY.

wtf am i doing in the girls shoe convo anyhow? look i'm gonna go watch the game and try to salvage what little remains of my masculinity.

haircuts go the same way. Sometimes they can make or break a man.

@johnny, yeah beers...i need sumptin to put a little hair on my nipples.

CHEST! I MEAN CHEST!!!

Did i kill my own thread with the mentioning of Satan?

thread killing agent devil vixen!

Of should be me. Stupid t9 on my phone. Grr.

OH btw, I LIKE those sweater flats.

I've been wearing my all black TargetversionofKeds and the cheap canvas maryjanes with the Aqua Teen and Wrestling Pickle buttons on the straps because Pita chewed the buckle to pieces pretty much every day lately.

I'm just a klutz and if I wear heels, I WILL fall on my face. IJAF.

@mace- i'm not a fan of brown, but those are cute. they're VERY you i think.

i was forced to wear stupid loafer-y saddle-shoe-y types of shoes in middle school and i hated. I cannot count on two hands AND feets the amount of detentions I got for breaking dress code just cos of MY SHOES.

H55 - I always love your icon because you are in a tie already. What's in the bottom of the icon? Hopefully a nice flat front black slacks and good shoes.

That night? Either black or gray flat fronts and black shoes. Only thing I would wear with that shirt and tie combo.

yes, there's nothing wrong at all with the tie/shirt/slacks combo.

classic!

that's businessy, that's fine, but khakis are not very hot.

(and they were clean)

one of my managers at HELL FOREST (my old hotel) used to constantly wear khakis with A PINK WAYABERA.

He was the whitest fool ever. why?

lol

just as long as you're not a KHAKI DWELLER because there is no help for that.

@pepper: dear lord no. not since high school.

@jude: wow. when the hell did I start getting attention?

a tie does lend an air of DAPPER

Uh... I don't really think so, man. But what do I know?

@agent: wow. and to think - the #2 piece of advice I got on my online dating profile was "take down the pic of you with a tie. nobody wants to see that."

ethan you are clearly an exception to all the rules above because you live in a cottage and because i said so.

Jesus Christ, this thread is long.
I agree with the OP.

omg how did i miss all the good parts of this conversation. fuckin' A. now i want to talk about shoes.
