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 4 months 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 4 months 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 4 months 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 4 months ago

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

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?

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 7 points 4 months ago

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

[-] TheAlbatross 8 points 4 months ago

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

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 8 points 4 months ago

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

[-] TheAlbatross 5 points 4 months 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 4 months ago

It’s all good mon

[-] electro1@infosec.pub 3 points 4 months ago

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

[-] BubbleMonkey@slrpnk.net 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months 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!

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 4 months 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 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months 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.

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

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 10 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

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 4 months 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 4 months 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 14 points 4 months ago

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

[-] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 5 points 4 months ago

Go right ahead. No one's stopping you.

[-] kittenzrulz123 10 points 4 months ago

My Transphobic community is :c

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 14 points 4 months ago

every one of those dudes looks like a fucking wiener

[-] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 2 points 4 months ago

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

[-] lrnz92@feddit.it 10 points 4 months ago

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

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

Right?

[-] Twinkletoes@lemm.ee 10 points 4 months ago

Where is the maid costume?

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

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

[-] breakingcups@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago

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

[-] niucllos@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months 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 9 points 4 months 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 4 months 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 7 points 4 months ago

All shirts must have buttons.

Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.
