ASOS Men's Sale + BEAST inspired outfit

So, in the process of helping my friend shop, I have been led to do this post.

Gio Gio Threes Perforated Print T-Shirt - $25.10
I'm not sure what to say. First time I'm truly blogging about menswear and I'm not sure how to go about it lol. I can't say it's a cute shirt because... it's not. It's a nice shirt. I like how the brand name is slashed across the front. And the green looks good on the black.

Amplified Run DMC Its Like That T-Shirt - $32.27
Yes, I am one of those people who only knows about Run DMC through fashion. A crime, I know. A crime for all seasons, actually ;) lol

Diesel Bone Fire Rescue T-Shirt - $28.69
Do I need to explain? Okay fine. First of all, it's an orange shirt. Second of all, it's an orange shirt that says Fire Rescue. I overanalyze the universe so I love this shirt. I feel like writing it into my novel.

And in honor of my friend's style...

Superdry Technical Jacket - $116.55

Gio Gio Betallion Lightweight Nylon Jacket - $28.69

Superdry Royals Tin-Tab Hoodie - $98.58

Superdry Grass Track Blacklabel Hooded Sweat Top - $98.62

G Star MCintyre Hooded Sweat Shirt - $125.51

G Star 3301 Straight Jeans - $143.44

River Island Padded Hi-Top Sneakers - $80.67

River Island Hi-Top Sneakers - $62.74

So apparently I like Superdry. Now I'm going to have to visit their store in Noho rather than just looking at it curiously and thinking of laundry.

Levi's Slim Straight 514 Jeans

SO... I went shopping with my brother a few weeks ago. It was a lot of fun and he picked up two pairs of this "family" of jeans. The cut of the jeans is very clean and sophisticated. This is probably my favorite cut that I've seen in men's jeans.

These are the jeans in Shock Black. This is the first pair (maybe. we looked at so many pairs that I don't remember which was the first) we picked up in this line. I've been trying to get a pair of jeans in this color into my brothers' wardrobes since forever and a millennium. This color in denim is extremely versatile. You can dress it up, or dress it down, but it always works. I think the jeans looked better on my brother but the model looks nice too, heh.

This pair is in Worn Grey. The picture isn't such a good representation of the color. The real pair is a very nice shade of grey.
We got both pairs from JCPenney's, buy one get one 50% off. But you can get them online on the Levi's website.

Also... The shoes in the picture for first pair are these:

ASICS Alton Men's Sneakers
Interestingly enough, I can only seem to find this color combination in women's :) I've seen these around a lot so it's nice that I know what they are.

YesStyle: Cropped Jeans and a Pullover

Deepstyle Cropped Jeans - $65
Interestingly enough, the first guy I saw wearing cropped pants was my uncle. This was way before they were in fashion. We were all trying to figure out if they were long shorts or was he really wearing "capris". Smart man.

LUVMAISON Twist-Neck Hooded Pullover - $28

Denim Disasters: The Ugliest Jeans, Ever

"For some reason, whenever we spot an egregiously heinous pair of pants, nine times out of a ten they'll be made of denim. Why do jeans have such bad luck? When they're done right, jeans can provide a foundation to a timelessly chic outfit—but when done bad, they provide such an eyesore that they'll haunt your sartorial nightmares for decades to come. We've rounded up some of the worst offenders, from a pair of jeans with a fly longer than Route 66 to high-fashion ones with boxers sewn on the outside, here are some denim don'ts that are guaranteed to leave you baffled." - Denim Disasters: The Ugliest Jeans, Ever
