^ I'd buy a suit. You can always get it tailored once you've gotten to an ideal weight.

Your closest dry cleaners should have tailoring services. Or wherever you buy the suit, they should have tailoring, too.

This is why I love you so haha! I sometimes feel so stupid not knowing these things at my age.
Edit: Yea...I am pretty sure that Jos. A Bank has a tailor service....that is the place that I would get my suits from. |

silver is subtle, and blends with any colors esp. black and white, gold is just better if you want something that's eye-popping. I don't wear a lot of gold. If I do, it may just be a neck-chain.

^yes imo, vented is way more comfortable, especially if you're wearing the jacket on an everyday basis and sitting down/moving around a lot. did you think about center vented vs side vented

I thought about center vs. side and I tend to like side a lot more than center. To me center seems to be a bit more of a classic suit, and I want to save that for some of my more pricey suit purchases in the upcoming months.
Here is a new question: What do you guys think about men wearing hunter boots? |

lmao so I got one of my suits out of the cleaners today and I am taking my other one to get vented next week! My first visit to a tailor. I have looked at askmen.com for a guide as to what I should look for, and the tailor has gotten all positive reviews. Anything else I should ask for?

QUOTE(fameONE @ Dec 2 2008, 05:56 AM) Does photography epitomize the essence of masculinity? Of course not, but it goes well beyond that. Photography is an art that can allow one to capture a moment in time. that was beautiful   dang i can't believe i missed this topic for like half a year |
