you look like a tool?

Aren't you one of those guys that likes wearing a tie?

A tie with a no iron brooks brother shirt


And my dimple is fucking perfect, with the tie exactly halfway between the top and bottom of my belt.



Now I just need some money to treat my obssesive-compulsive disorder.

Fixed.

No arguments there. The tie's gotta be perfect every time ^_^

You dont really need brand names. Just go to Target. They have nice, inexpensive stuff.

Important to NS1 is his fucking tie dimple. He is trying to be Frank Sinatra, who didn't have to try so hard.

Alfani, Perry Ellis

edit: oh, and unless you are over 40, steer clear of the short sleave dress shirts...

I use to hate shot sleeve button downs, but now I love them. Only problem is I'm an XS so practically every major brand that makes non-retarded patterns (looking at you H&M) is oversized. Levi's make pretty nice ones.

not making fun of you, but try the kids section.

My wife shops girls sometimes (size 000 5' tall, 100lbs).

Damn straight. The only thing that separates me and Frank Sinatra is talent. A whole lotta talent. But I'd pwn his ass in Halo3.

That's quite the insult.

brooks brothers non-iron. best shirts ive ever owned. refuses to wrinkle. by no mean cheap at 3 for 200$ but the careless maintenance is more than worth it.

ive thrown away far too many 1mx shirts because they get stained one way or another its not economic to buy cheap shirts

Sounds nice, but I have Dockers and Van Heusen wrinkle-free button downs that only cost me $25 a shirt.

TJ Maxx and Kohl's FTW!

Maybe I should just forget the dress shirts for this summer; am travelling to Europe for study abroad and we'll be visiting about 13 different cities while we take classes.

Khaki shorts and rolled up sleeves?

In the last week of dressing nicely I've noticed the huge effect style + confidence + being in shape has on the ladies. Just looking for a way to take this with me to Europe while not burning up/sweating like crazy.

My whole wardrobe is Express ..its kinda sad.

Sorry, button downs aren't for me. However, button ups are the shit!

Neither one of those shirts is a button-down.

Why would you "pop your collar" with a button-down shirt? Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of buying a button-down shirt? You do know that a button-down shirt has buttons on the collar that button the collar down? Maybe you, and it seems like a lot of other people in this thread, are confusing this with a button-up shirt, otherwise known as a dress shirt. Then again, maybe the op wasn't aware of the destinction. The only difference between the two is the buttons on the collar.

i cant say anything in specific about dockers or van heuseum simlpy because they dont offer the slim/modern fits for me to buy.

however, i have owned, or currently own, dress shirts from alfani, banana republic, gap, nordstroms, calvin klein, perry ellis, jos a banks, express, lands end, kenneth cole, ralph lauren, and more, and 95% of the time i wear BB because it looks cleaner, sharper, just better. i actually threw away most of those shirts at one point during my last move. if i add up all the $20+$30+$40+$50 shirts that i bought, they cost way more than a 75$ (retail) BB shirt that i actually wear all the time



now what i need to do next is convert my work pants to non-iron BBs.......
