What a way to miss the point. I was short of pictures with successful (and beautiful) black men.
Nonetheless if you can't feel the fashion sense behind this picture that's another story.

lose weight, like stop eating processed foods maybe. more for health than any other reason.

Jesus Crust, is that a tucked shirt with jeans?
Get chinos dingbat.
Solid color ties are best. Black, navy, gray.
That shirt is ugly. Get one without pockets if you want to wear a tie.
Also, take your Sketchers off and buy some oxfords.
>>
>>12359072
First, never roll up the sleeves like that on any button down while wearing a tie.
Secondly, if you're wanting to rock a look like this, then you should buy a short sleeved single-pocket button down instead of the double pocket monstrosity that you're currently wearing. That button down was never made for a tie, and it makes you look like you're about to go crunch numbers on a fishing trip. If you do get a short sleeve, then make sure the short sleeve button down fits you in the upper chest by being slim enough that you see some slight definition regarding the top portion of your man-boobs, but widens out just enough in the bottom portion of your chest that it doesn't show your gut at all and fits loose (it should look borderline unwearable at this stage, because it is). Then you should spend the ten to twenty dollars on a tailor (most dry cleaners or bridal dress shops will do it for you). They'll measure your upper body, (ask them for a copy of these numbers so you know exactly what size to buy while shopping online) tailor your shirt to fit your dimensions better, and assist you in tailoring the fit to support the way you want to utilize it. If it's for work, then tell them you will be tucking it in every day and don't want any fabric overhang or wrinkles whenever it's tucked in. If the tailor is worth their salt, then they should already know this, but it's better to be safe than sorry. This also means that it should ONLY be used for tucking in. You should also wear a slimmer tie for this fit, and look up the length of where your tie should end, because you're tying it too short.
Lose the jeans and get some khaki china's. Go take these to a tailor too, and wear them with a belt which matches the shoes.

I do have slimmer dress shirts, they just aren't the type with roll up sleeves.
>>
>>12359515
Throw the black shirt in the trash, you look like a waiter. Also, your tie seems way too big. The width if your tie should depend on your body size. In short:
-no black dress shirts
-try the tie before you buy (even measure it, check out tie bar)
-lose the jeans
Some brands to look into: J. Crew, (Factory), Banana Republic, Gap, Uniqlo.
These are all mall-tier brands but with the look you're going for and the budget you probably have, you can definitely start shopping there. If it looks expensive, it's probably cheaper on grailed and ebay.
>>
>>12359508
chinos* not China.
In my opinion however, you shouldn't be wearing this fit at all unless it's your work attire. I only suggested you wear a short sleeve button down because of your rolled up sleeves. You're still going to look like a doofus because you're not wearing a pocket-less well-fitted long sleeve button down (not rolled up) with the chinos, an appropriate tie, and a good belt shoes combo. I would only wear the short sleeve if I work in a work-place environment where I'd need to stay cool, but the argument could very well be made to instead opt in for a fitted polo shirt in these cases.
If you don't need it for business, or your workplace allows you to not wear a tie, then you could actually get by with the pants you have on (tailor tho), pairing it with a tucked in white tailored dress shirt with no pockets and a collar that is appropriate for flaring out (preferrably no buttons on the collar example: small spread collar), and buy a casual blazer for it.
This blazer could be something from the GAP even. Price doesn't even fucking matter, just make sure it's close to the color of the jeans (tailor tailor tailor. You should get into the habit of tailoring every piece you buy, even if you think something like your pants fits you well in the length). For this fit, lose the tie completely, keep the top two buttons unbuttoned, and wear a tan colored leather shoe with a nice tan leather belt. There, now you'll be dressed like a million bucks. As for your weight and hair, don't worry about it as much. Tailors can work magic if they're given the right size. As for tailors, I'd suggest you find a nice one that will give you your measurements, and where you could also ask them what'd be the best shirt size for you to come in with for alteration. Get off your ass and do it, because they'll more than likely do this for free. Form a bond with this person.

I'm sorry but BOY WHAT IS THAT HAIRLINE. Shit man the outfit isn't bad but all the attention is going to your hair. Get it cut short with a fade on the sides, that way it would look nice and your receding line shouldn't be that noticeable.
>>
>>12359601
>>12359585
Now I'm convinced that I need to cut my hair. I was thinking of growing it out haha. But if it looks ridiculous then there no point ignoring the elephant in the room.
I am dieting currently and hitting the gym, so the weight should come off quickly. Probably shouldn't have bulked so hard, even tho my strength went up a lot.

You and I both know that shirt doesn't fit you, and you know it because I can tell you've tried to roll up the sleeves, but it's probably too tight for your body. You want something that fits looser than that, and don't worry about if the arm arm length is too long, because a tailor will alter that.
Before you buy anything else, you should find a good tailor in your area, get your measurements from them, and ask them the things you should look out for whenever buying something that you'll need tailored.
Going back to the weight and hairline thing, you'll figure out pretty quickly that your current shape is unworthy of a fit that you've put in the time and effort into getting fitted right. I didn't give a shit at first, but after putting in the ground work and money into getting shit tailored, I started to highly focus on what I would put into my body, (now I only eat one big meal per day with no sweets or sugary drinks), and I focused more on my face and hair. The same will probably go for you after you put in the ground work, because you'll feel like you've wasted time and money if you don't look right.
gif related: Find someone who inspires you and stick to working towards adopting their body and style. It could be a character, actor, etc. They don't have to be black either, because most often times there's a way for you to adopt the look. You look bad right now, but I could imagine a prime you looking good in what pic related is wearing. Same shades and everything, but with a lean body, waxed chest, and a fade (or some very close-cut haircut). This will propel you on focusing on yourself more. Remember that you don't have to work out to lose weight either, just find a way to eat less.

I used to try and stick to diets all of the time, so some words of advice. If you think you'll be able to maintain the calorie deficit you're currently at and know you can reach a BMI in the lower side of your optimal range in a couple of months, then I would hold off on anything related to tailoring clothes or purchasing clothes that you'll need tailored until you are done cutting. There's only so much that a tailor can alter, so just stick to your basic necessities (t-shirts, cheap shorts and pants, a jacket, etc.) and find an inspo that you can truly gravitate towards. That way, you'll be ready to hit the ground running whenever you're within an optimal weight range.
And if you ever feel like you are beginning to not stick to your diet, then find out what your BMR is, look up how many daily calories it would take to lose 1-2 pounds per week based off of your activity level, and stick to drinking plenty of water and chewing gum until lunch and dinner time. Have a small lunch and a big dinner. This makes it easier for you to count calories (most of the time you won't even have to because it'd be hard to go over the calorie amount in one to two meals), it builds up more will-power by making you understand the difference between actual hunger and a psychological desire, and it helps your body lose more weight quicker by placing it into starvation mode. Also, many body builders and people losing weight focus more so on their diet than gym first. If they go to the gym, then they'll hit very minimal weight, and instead, opt for cardio. For me, I only jogged in the morning while cutting and I only did that for my heart health; not to lose weight. If all else fails, then you may have a binge eating disorder and a Vyvanse perscription will curb your appetite. Check with your doctor first, because I am not responsible if you pass out from something like a blood-sugar problem. I'm just telling you what worked for me.

you need to lose the hair, it's too far back at the top. You are a strong black man, cut it off and if you can grow some facial hair to balance out your face. Black men with a shaved head do not get the same critical looks compared to a white man. Wear dress shirts that aren't as tight.
those glasses with the black frames do not work that well, it looks like you have white on them because of the thick prescriptions
I'd say a gold/brown metal frame in a rounder shape would look great with a neat beard. Even a short goatee would look ok

Thanks haha. Makes me feel slightly better about it.
I am trying to grow it out, and although I haven't cut my hair in a couple months, I do get the sides buzzed shorter every once in a while when it gets too unruly. Idk if I want an undercut or not,. I might just buzz the whole dome anyway since that's what most people recommend.
Even though it looks shitty I can't be bothered to cut my hair every 2 weeks.
I am gonna lose weight tho. Fat face makes me look uglier than I probably could be. Maybe if I lost 20 more lb I'd look halfway decent.
Anyway thanks for all the input guys. Really appreciate it. Honest criticism is precious.

Don't wear shirts with pockets on the front, especially double pockets unless it's subtle like pic related.
Also the rest of your outfit is too casual to wear with a tie, you can wear a tie with rolled up sleeves but I'd pair it with chinos and a crisp white shirt (not pockets or other ornaments on it).
Finally if you're going to tuck in your shirt you need to be wearing a belt.

>like that
you need to read his post again. It isn't bad to give your sleeves a 1 or 2 roll up the forearm...it gives the down and dirty to get work done look.

>>
>>12364458
So you're saying you should only roll the sleeves up until they're like halfway up the forearm? Because that also looks terrible. I'm pretty sure the sticky is with me when I say that anything other than rolling just past the elbow is the ONLY acceptable way to have short sleeves in a button down that isn't Hawaiian.

Nah, it's acceptable to roll the sleeves up like that under certain situations. You mentioned politicians, so go back and look at where they're at whenever they're doing it. None of them go to work doing that shit, anon; however, you can pull it off given the right circumstances.

The trick is to ROLL them before you wear the shirt. I roll mine up sometimes to accentuate my inner forearm tattoos.
