Hey guys, I know this is a 'what you are wearing today' thread but I have a question that I really doubt requires a new thread, and since this is a rather active thread I hope it's alright to post this here.

My uni is having an event at night, while there isn't a specific dress code I want to look nice (duh who of us here doesn't). I plan on wearing a black long sleeve shirt (with green, white and purple stripes) and black long pants. But I'm not so sure what shoes to get.

Initially I was thinking of going with the shoes here:

But after discussing with a friend of mine, his advice was to get dress shoes instead. Can anyone give some insight on this please?

Once again sorry if this is in the wrong place, I didn't want to start a new thread.

I'm not wearing a formal dress shirt and dress pants, anyway formal dress shirts usually look terrible untucked due to its length. I'm going with something more 'casual', like the AX kinda shirts.

Or should I just get Corfam shoes and and blind everyone

Oh no sorry, it's not those proms, balls or dinners or whatever, it's basically a cultural night organised by the international students, and tickets are only going for rm15 so I'm sure you can tell it's not a formal event. In fact I expect to see t-shirt and jeans haha.

And no it's not from Padini, it's a g2000 blu shirt. It's mostly black, the stripes are very fine, in fact I only realised just now that there are actually green stripes on it even though I've already worn the shirt once. I'm not really a fan of those 'obvious' kinda stripes, if you get what I mean.

Thanks for the help guys!

I'm 99% sure there is no dress code, and like I said I expect to see someone turn up in t shirt and jeans, maybe even t-shirt and shorts, oh well.

I have quite limited knowledge in this, so what's the difference between the pants you mentioned and the formal slacks? I'm someone who hardly wear pants, I go to uni in jeans everyday, so I don't think I'm gonna spend money on pair of pants that are more suited for casual, instead I'll probably spend on a pair of pants that can be worn for both casual and formal.

But please explain about the pants if you don't mind.

Hey jind, your white jacket looks sweet!

However, I feel that the pink tie kinda ruined the look though.

That aside, this is hot stuff

I must repeat what Fusion said, good job matching the pocket square!

Hey guys, any of you have any idea if Corduroy is suitable for a climate like ours? I've been getting conflicting information.

Thank you
