Nice! Now tell me what should I wear in 30°C, sunny weather.

It's going to be a completely different outfit, right?

Right?

[-] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 32 points 3 days ago

Seems like a guide from someone that wants to sell 20 shirts, 12 pairs of pants, 8 pairs of shoes and 6 blazers.

As long as isn't full of tear holes, wear whatever the fuck you want.

[-] niucllos@lemm.ee 5 points 3 days ago

I mean you don't need to buy at every level, and a lot of it is shared, e.g. the smart casual and business casual blazers can be the same one

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago

it's not the guide that's bullshit, it's the fact that distinct categories like "smart casual" (wtf is "smart" any kind of clothes anyway?) and "business casual" even exist. i sincerely hope i never get to the point that i can tell them apart. we need to push for LESS superficial bullshit culture, not the other way around

[-] BCsven@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 days ago

Smart is a British term for looking sharply dressed, etc. Like "Oi, Lad, don't you look smart with the new 'aircut"

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 days ago

ok. this still doesn't explain how "sharply dressed" casual is different from "business" casual. don't tell me--i don't care

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago

Oh hey look, a guide on being elitist and fostering the oppression of the working class.

[-] TheAlbatross@lemmy.blahaj.zone 25 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Fuckin boooooring!

Tired of men wearing boring ass shit.

Wear some bright colors, try a pattern! It ain't the 40's, gosh, have fun.

Edit: no shorts?

[-] Befernafardofo@feddit.it 3 points 2 days ago

Couldn't agree more Man's fashion is boring as fuck, it's all same-y

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago

i wear nothing but black and grey specifically to repel people who are entertained by bright colors

[-] TheAlbatross@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 3 days ago

I'm sorry you hate fun, I hope things get better for ya

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 8 points 3 days ago

fun is great, i love fun. just not people who think fun requires bright colors

[-] TheAlbatross@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 days ago

To reiterate the other commentor's point, I'm just joshing, being flippant, having a giggle. You rock your style and enjoy what you enjoy.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

It’s all good mon

[-] electro1@infosec.pub 3 points 3 days ago

People who like dark colors have the brightest minds, cheers 🍻

[-] BubbleMonkey@slrpnk.net 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I’d like to see more of this sort of thing, personally. As just part of the available options. Colors would be great too!

[-] BubbleMonkey@slrpnk.net 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

You are more than welcome to do so, but I don’t really make posts in communities I don’t have an investment in. Or many at all really.

I can send you the URLs for the original pics and all, if you like :) it turns out those I linked are super low quality and a simple screenshot would have higher res.

But I probably don’t belong there; I have no skin in this other than finding men in manskirts psychologically attractive. And even that’s a bit of a stretch as an asexual ;)

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Communities like these need more people posting in them. But if you don't feel comfortable doing so, no problem.

[-] BubbleMonkey@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

They do, you aren’t wrong, but I’m not remotely the right person to post this stuff there since I’ve never even visted the community and don’t care about men’s (or any) fashion. Beyond like.. wanting some more interesting options as eye candy..

So by all means, have at ^_^

Here are the URLs from which I grabbed the images. Do with them as you like, but it’s not a topic I’m qualified to post about (I have the style of.. well I haven’t.), nor have interest in posting about, so please do enjoy! Take all the warm fuzzy upvotes for yourself! I have no need :) but that style is still chef kiss. And also skirts are comfy af.

i'm usually in nothing more than shorts 98% of the time, so i had the same thought. lol

i'm aware that people do judge you based on your appearance; but unless you're the fit model shown in the image, it's not going to help much (also difficult to find the right size/fit) and nearly 50% of the american populate is obese and 75% are fat.

[-] niucllos@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

In fairness a lot of people have office jobs with the possibility to be let go if they don't meet dress code

[-] fchum@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

We should really push against that, I think; "I came here to write code and make money for both of us, not to spend said money playing dress up"

This is especially annoying when you're not even meeting any clients ever

[-] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 3 days ago

I hate how restrictive mens clothing are, I want to look pretty and cute :3

[-] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 5 points 3 days ago

Go right ahead. No one's stopping you.

[-] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 3 days ago

My Transphobic community is :c

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 12 points 3 days ago

every one of those dudes looks like a fucking wiener

[-] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 1 points 3 days ago

we used to beat people up for coming into work looking like that

[-] Twinkletoes@lemm.ee 10 points 3 days ago

Where is the maid costume?

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

ikr. No fursuits, no bondage wear, no cosplays. I suspect this is a guide for normies.

[-] breakingcups@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Is it me? I see no real difference between 80% of these styles.

[-] niucllos@lemm.ee 5 points 3 days ago

Each one is a slight upgrade in formality of the previous one, so yes there is a lot of near-overlap

[-] scytale@lemm.ee 8 points 3 days ago

This guide has a way different definition of casual as mine. Casual to me is round/V neck shirt, shorts/jeans/joggers, and sneakers.

[-] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago

Same. If somebody avoids me because I'm wearing jeans and a t-shirt, I'd find them completely intolerable anyway.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

All shirts must have buttons.

Survey Says! . . . BZZZZZT

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee 0 points 3 days ago

People used to look way better back in the day.

Now no one has any self respect and just wears PJs to the store.

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 11 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

it's not a lack of self respect. it's a lack of give a fuck what you think about my clothes. if anything, that's more self respect than trying to live up to ~~someone~~ everyone else's "fashion" expectations, regardless of how I want to express myself. and what have you done to warrant me being obliged to wear what you think i should wear to the store?

"iTs SoCiEtAl NoRmS!"

indeed it was

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee -4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

We all live in this world and we should take consideration for others. People obviously exclusively care about themselves and it seems people want to show of how much they are the centre of the world by actively showing off to everyone how little they care. Contradictory I know.

No one wants to see you in private clothes, no one wants to see "Juicy" written on your arse, no one want to see your gut hanging out, no one wants to see your huge cleavage going to your bellybutton, no one wants to see your arsecrack.

People now almost take it as a sense of pride that they can look as shitty as possibly just to show off. Yea great, you look a state congratulation.

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

We all live in this world and we should take consideration for others.

this i agree with.

but then you take the liberty of speaking for the entire world:

No one wants to see you in private clothes, no one wants to see “Juicy” written on your arse, no one want to see your gut hanging out, no one wants to see your huge cleavage going to your bellybutton, no one wants to see your arsecrack.

you are speaking as if your opinions are/should be EVERYONE'S opinion, which you're free to believe, but it's a dumb opinion that i shit on. more information . see also: "nO oNe ShOuLd HaVe TaTtOos!!" "nO oNe ShOuLd BrEaStFeEd In PuBlIC" etc.

i'm not telling you what to think. i'm saying you're in for a miserable life if this is really what you think. and i have zero sympathy. and i can tell you 2 things: 1) i have plenty of self respect, and 2) i can't think of anything i give less of a fuck about than having YOUR respect

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee -2 points 3 days ago

You really seem to care about showing people how little you care.

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 days ago

you're right, i admit: i would like everyone to care less about clothes and other superficial crap, and argue about it online. usually when i'm drunk, which i am.

sober me knows this is a battle of snowballs vs fireballs, but fuck it. it'll make me smile, thinking of you getting red in the face mad every time you go to 7eleven and see an asscrack emerging from pajama pants

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee -3 points 3 days ago

More sorry for people than anything.

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Depends on context. If I'm interviewing for an office job that's one thing, if I'm running to the convenience store at night that's another.

[-] ChexMax@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Self respect doesn't make you dress uncomfortably to grab milk, it's respect for others. People now a' days just realize we don't need to be so formal to still treat each other with respect.

Though honestly, I see plenty of people misbehaving/behaving rudely in public, maybe we should go back to collared shirts? If that keeps people from yelling at cashiers?
