I wear jeans and t-shirts most of the time...jorts in the warmer months. Pretty much the same as I have for over 40 years.
This is the official white guy construction worker attire. I've been wearing it since 1972.

For work I wear BDUs/ACUs, a Tshirt, boonie hat, and combat boots. Off duty, I wear BDUs/ACUs, a Tshirt, baseball hat and boat shoes. Unless I'm working around the house, or hiking or something. Then I put the combat boots back on. If it's sunny, I also put the boonie hat back on.

Since I really don't care very much what anyone else thinks of me, I dress exactly the way I feel like dressing 99% of the time.... jeans/t-shirt/hoodie/sneakers... sub in shorts when its hot. And yes its the same way I've dressed for well beyond 20 years.

*(fortunately the only dress-code @ my work is that you are!)

When I went to basic, I walked in with a pair of jeans, a white t-shirt, socks, tennis shoes, underwear, and a wallet. I upgraded my off-work attire to woolen socks and black t-shirts, and wore those for *months*. Still use my boots when I'm out hiking/doing dirty shit on the property.

wake up, pull your head out of your ass, and take a look around.
Fashion, music, and movies really havent evolved too much in 20 years.
its not like the 20th century where each decade has its own distinct culture. shoving our noses in phones has stagnated all growth and innovation. Clothes are just the colorful expression of that death.

Shorts and tshirt in summer, jeans and tshirt rest of the year. Sometimes even wear cargo shorts, but not all the time. I just put on whatever matches together.

The nice thing about my work is there is not really much in terms of dress code.

Come to think of it it's rare I have long sleeves now days. -40 out? still wearing jeans and tshirt lol. If I am doing work outside I find a coat is cumbersome and stiff to move around in so I'll put a hoodie on instead of a coat.

I suppose the biggest evolution in movies is now they make comic book movies that aren't terrible... they're just making way too many of them.
