My mate bought a white shirt/white tie combo, looked quite nice. Might look for something similar
Yeah defo better than normal tie. I have a white shirt and white skinny tie. Made by 'Junk De lux' Look on Asos I saw it on there the other day.
Thats the one I've been looking at They do it in black too
I was thinking the white one with a black v neck. Nothing too OTT
 the shirt is top quality, really well made. I have only worn the tie once though.

Just because a pair of jeans is £200 does'nt mean they are nice though. A mate of mine just buys stuff because it says Armani on the front, and frankly he looks a cunt

I'm with Colin, if those poncy ties hadn't been stuck in the window of Topman so every poofter can buy one, would you go out of your way to find one because you think they look good?

Thats it Joe, local shop has it so I might get it from there
I would never spend an excessive amount on one item, £200 for jeans is silly
Did see a really nice Hugo Boss cardigan other day, turned the price tag over & it was £190

I agree Colin but theres alot of other brands which don't cost half as much and are as good. I don't really shop on the high street but armani, hugo boss, stone island etc is just not my thing.
Matt, thats the same one I have. I'd defo try it first though coz the shirt is quite a slim fit.

I wouldnt feel comfortable in that shirt & tie. too 'office' for going out imo & by half 10 that tie would be ripped off & stuck in my pocket & the shirt crumpled out the trousers

Ive tried them all bud, in my eyes it goes past having a badge on them there the best I can afford & I know they will last.

I bought a pair of next jeans a while back & had to bin them after 1 wash...waste of £30.
Ive got a pair of armani I bought in italy about 4yrs (probably cost 6x the next pair) ago that still look fresh.
Thats enough reason for me.

when i go out i stick with the fail safe, t-shirt, normal jeans that arent too baggy nor look like they were sprayed on, and clean trainers.
i dont stick out as looking like a twat and women dont have to wonder if im gay or straight

Jeans i only buy ones that fit tbh, coudn't GAF about name as long as they are not cheap looking. Clothes in general I buy because I like things and not due to name or being in fashion at the time, I just look around, if I like something I buy it. I am mostly a t-shirt and jeans type but I have some more sort of unusual stuff that I just fancied, I wouldn't let it being in fashion or not in fashion put me off at all. (or it not being a t-shirt)

i ahve some diesel jeans at 90 quid a pop in the sales.
was surprised actually found some o'neill jeans for 65 quid that have a really nice cut, got about a 14.5" opening on the leg, and are slim fitting from the knee down. Look really good with just say a blue T and white belt with black trainers. (jeans are like indigo)
I always find bright t-shirt with jeans work well, just get some contrast going.
Dont like shirts and ties eurgh
