Tee Hee.

Im getting old and I always like to attempt to look good if I go out etc

Judging by the example you posted, I'm slightly worried about the state of your wardrobe.

Sorry, don't take me too srsly

pair it with a pair of sharp jeans

Jeans with jackets, /shudder.

What exactly is wrong with that? Head out in London to a decent area and that's pretty much what all the blokes will be wearing. I'm not talking a suit jacket, something either tweed, similar to tweed or linen, It's pretty much what I wear day to day.

A casual jacket and trousers makes you look like a tool.

Awful.

Just wear any Suit jacket with Jeans and shoes and you're good to go.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt with regards to a tweedy type jacket and jeans, that is quite a good call. But anything else linen, suit, casual etc... urg, just a nono.

No, that ultimately is only down to the style of the jacket and its colour in combination of the <american>pants</American> being worn.

I won't be taking advice from the fashionistas in here that's for sure.

For £100 id rather go to next and get a better quality one

Any 100 quid jacket will look like crap I'm afraid.

Massive fail. Suit jacket and jeans looks like you've just left school and have no sense of style/taste at all.

I like the look to be honest.

There's nothing wrong with that outfit! Everything is well fitted, and he looks clean and refined.

mrk · 12 Jan 2012 at 18:46

The Jeans(?) look rather thin and a size too short?

That's you isn't it

LocalNative · 12 Jan 2012 at 18:49

They're just slim fit. It balances out nicely with the bulkiness of the blazer.

mrk · 12 Jan 2012 at 18:52

Depends on what you prefer I guess

Yes it's all very subjective.

loltim · 12 Jan 2012 at 21:18

my blazers a bit like Dexter's actually

35 quid from h&m!

[FnG]magnolia · 12 Jan 2012 at 21:27

Wear a WoW t-shirt, a comedy beer-dispensing cap and some oversized jeans you bought from Primark (4 for a tenner!).

There, you've now got the GD look. God speed, you lady slayer.
