Not really sure where I should ask this, but is it okay to wear a shirt with jeans/trainers.

What I mean is like a normal shirt, normal jeans and these style of shoes:



or is that a fashion faux pas?

I personally believe that what you are 'comfortable' wearing is the key, not 'comfortable' as in workout clothing. When I first changed my style from college wear to adult GQish clothes, I made the jump too quickly and not being ready to dress like that really threw off my game.

I say you should wear something that will not be on your mind after that last glance in the mirror before heading out. But, I would also start taking steps to building a better wardrobe so that 'normal' isnt needed before shirt.

Should read more like:

Wearing Express Fitted V-Neck with True Religion Jeans... But, by then, you will not need any advice.


To living the good life...

Cheers!

Totally normal, you shouldn't even create limitations to your own fashion preference.

Your way of self expression should only be validated by you.

However, with those shoes, be sure to keep them CLEAN. Rock them indoors, and avoid rainy days.

Hey
your choice is also good you can try this style as per your like but I believe you can likewise try simple sneakers with shirt and jeans which additionally give your trendy look.:)

I think it would fit good, but depends on jeans and shirt style.

Ask ppl around you, women working in clothing store can help you alot if you ask for their opinion.

By the way, "faux pas" are for women. Wear what you want.

As long as you don't tuck shirt in jeans. If you're going to do that, wear a waistcoat. Imo a waistcoat is the best thing you can own. Takes you out of the scruffy casual zone but not too formal and it sets you apart from the rest. Just make sure you don't end. Up looking like a hipster or a waiter though.

Any flat sole sneaker along these lines are typically fine with jeans. Sketchers, old school converse...whatever. The fashion faux pas most people refer to are athletic sneakers with jeans, such as running or basket ball sneakers.

Short of minor things like that, you should go primarily go by proper fit and a look that makes YOU feel like you look good.

That said, I always try to avoid looking too pristine and crisp when dressing casually. If the clothes are fairly new and in good shape I’ll go with a slightly messier hair style. Or if the hair looks really good I’ll incorporate a shirt with a faded logo, or jeans that show a little wear and tear.

Too perfect is metrosexual and unmanly.
So sneakers with jeans is a definite no? Even if they're something nice like the Adidas Ultraboost?

Those would look okay with slim-fitting jeans.

I would say it's always better to wear leather footwear with jeans, and non-athletic sneakers with shorts.
