So I was going to hem my pants myself since it's a bit long. How high up should I hem it? Like slightly below my ankles?
Dressing better

Can anyone gimme background information on what it is and what it entails?

Please help school me on this.

Jeans are a bit long, but the outfit is nice overall..
Don't button up the cardigan either...it looks better unbuttoned

Go to a tailor, tell them to taper your jeans. Any jeans can be tapered. It's basically just slimming the legs and leg openings of the jeans. Levis 511 and APC New Standards are examples of tapered jeans.

It's not too noticeable, most tapered pants are slight and not drastic. The slimmer leg and opening offers a cleaner look to the jean because it doesn't swallow up whatever shoes you are wearing. You can look on the levis website and see how 511s look when the models wear them.

^ I was about to say change out the jeans to some khakis or maybe some grey chinos. I suggest something light in color since you have a dark color on top. After that you'll have a better idea of what shoes to wear.~

try Lands End Canvas I saw the site on GQ a while back and they appear to have some decent stuff for those on a budget. Here is the link to the CHambray shirts for 40.

I take in my jeans by myself in a really cheesy way. To the untrained eye you can't tell that I did anything to them though.

That whole look is illy.. (Jkissi)
went to H&M (ATL store) for the first time this past week and was not impressed, at all. The prices are aiight but for the most part you get what you pay for cause the quality doesn't seem all that great. Tried on 2 pairs of jeans and both fit lousy.. I wanted to buy something just to say I bought something, but even a $10 v-neck didn't make the cut. So f'n dissapointed.

yo, no hombro, but after seeing that pic, I realize I need to get in the gym. I'm not making any assumptions about you, this is just about me. I'm about to be 21 with a bird chest
and skinny arms
.
I don't know when I'll find the time in between 2 jobs & school.
I also need (more like want) a camera to share some 'fits.
