what kind of style should I aim for based on my appearance?
at first I was thinking of going for that japanese comfycore look, but then someone told me i would look good wearing handmade items and #americana menswear, but I also like the style of the 60s new left/intellectuals and minimalist style
which would suit me tho

I try to avoid looking too generic; I aim for a certain style/aesthetic but stop just short of being stereotypical with it. I typically could be categorized as going for a wonder years-style pop punk aesthetic; skate shoes like vans, nondescript khaki/chinos, big sweater, snapback or beanie. I change it up by having more colorful pants that actually fit my weirdly feminine (shapely) legs correctly, and while I do have some vans, I typically wear Onitsukas.
When I'm not doing that basic combo, I usually wear raglans/ringer tees with a flannel. Pants stay the same. Pants are either skinny jeans or joggers.
I straight up don't wear "nice" clothes because I have the weirdly-shaped (not fat) body of a child and I am nowhere near rich enough to afford a tailor to actually get clothes that don't make me look retarded.

>What style are you aiming for?

Something that involves brighter colors. Not on the level of bright neon stuff but simply a lighter palette. I've been eyeing Hysteric Glamour recently, their embroidered sweaters look very nice.

>Does it work?
Yes, I usually wear navy blue/wine/black/white/pine green stuff, mostly because they are my favorite colors and it's what I usually get for free at my local skate shop.

>What are your problems achieving it?
I usually spend hours checking different stores at the mall in hopes of finding something simple that offers the colors I'm looking for but no dice. If I happen to find something, it's plastered with graphics that look way too cringy to wear.

At times I consider sticking with my current style because I've received compliments from friends and acquaintances on my look (which honestly surprises me, I just wear whatever I have on my pile of clothing and search for something that blends with it's color.)

>>12050632
IMO go for the japanese comfycore look, you could also check the korean rooftop style. Your face reminded me of tofubeats, the guy looks good with just about anything.

>>12050754
Check JNCO, these guys are the fucking overlords of wide leg jeans.

Internet, friend.

I'm in the Midwest and 4 hours away from any metropolis and still manage to get shit that fits me. If you're really desperate get some shitty h&m pants at your local mall until you can afford better.

>What style are you aiming for?
I dislike trying to focus on one style so I try not to limit myself. I guess what I currently have is parts of both the Beams style and Jp streetwear. Features pictures and less of a focus on black and white. If I had to 'core' it then I'd call it observercore. Pic related is something of an example.
>Does it work?
It's pretty inoffensive
>What are your problems achieving it?
Finding pieces of clothing that I would wear frequently enough to justify buying that are not basic (e.g uniqlo). Most of these end up coming from Japan anyway because western stores are disgustingly overpriced.

I'm wearing the paras too, yeah. Got them off ebay. Though I usually wear them with german army trainers rather than the austrian paras just because it's a bit simpler. You can't see the top half well in this pic, but you can see the shoes.

I'm going for the sophisticated entrepreneur look. My friends and I are building a startup.
>>
>>12049964
>What style are you aiming for?
Not sure, I like dark earthy colours (brown, dark green, burgundy), usually wear a cotton shirt, waistcoat or cardigan and maybe a jacket, cord trousers and walking shoes/ boots. Hobbitcore maybe.

>Does it work?
It's basically how I've dressed since I've had to buy my own clothes, I think it works, and it's certainly comfy.

>What are your problems achieving it?
None really, most of my stuff lasts a while so I don't even have to spend much money long term.

Don't have a picture now and it's too dark to take one, sorry to anyone who might for some reason give a shit.

I think i've shrinked, i'm not digging the simple but good looking aesthetic, not really fashionable, but looks (and feels) like it's so easy to move in it and not juvenile but not too serious. My music taste has shifted too.

It feels good. I'm almost proud of myself for being like this. I like this image. Just white short sleeve button downs, black pants, black shoes (preferably mono chucks or superga), and /lit/ and /mu/. I like the kind of self i'm embracing right now.

And like if i can monotonize the Her (the film) aesthetics, that would be my aesthetics too. Her is too colorful for my liking, but the quietness and chillness is on par with my preference.

Fashionable punk with streetwear influences.

Does it work: For the most part.

Problems: Retards for the past few years such as the ones on r/streetwear, instagram, and even here sometimes who have minimal knowledge of aesthetics and fashion in general and want to appear unique with supreme, yeezys and other recent adidas drops, over-layering, etc. What's worse is as these people quickly find things I do to implement incorrectly into their shitty style it becomes harder and harder to remain as I am without being grouped into their kind.

>What style are you aiming for?
Slackycore most the time. Hitting an experimental stage. Picking up pieces that are kinda weird to see I guess. Also been doing a lot of DIY lately. Mixing all this with my thrift finds, ideally tho there are a few designer pieces id like to pick up.

>Does it work?
Yup! Get compliments from people all the time.

>What are your problems achieving it?
need moar money to splurg on pants and shoes
