Hello, i want to buy the full "Elegant Bad Boy" outfit for myself.

But, beforehand,i need suggestions, opinions, and help, as i'm going to invest money to buy it.

Let's go!

The black leather biker jacket:

5.

Which one from these leather jackets should i choose or which one look sexiest? If you know any other better, suggest it.


White Shirt/Sweater: Please, suggest me a white spring sweater, that would fit the leather jacket. There are the the white shirt and the white sweater, but also there is the white dress shirt, so does a white dress shirt go along with the leather biker jacket? I think not.

Jeans: Please, suggest me a good pair of distressed skinny jeans, that would fit the outfit.

Shoes=Chelsea boots:

I don't like scarfs, i have a good watch that would fit the outfit, but is any bracelet needed?


Your help would be really really appreciated!

Ezio,

Which one from these Chelsea boots should i choose or which one look sexiest? Which one fits the overall outfit? If you know any other better, suggest it.

Quick note here: the only pair of shoes you linked (barring #1 since that link is broken) that are Chelsea boots is #4. Chelsea boots are defined by the little "elastic" piece that goes down the side to the ankle, which allows you to slip the shoes on and off easily.

With that being said, I think #4 would look best if it had more of a pointed toe instead of a rounded one as well as a more elegant bottom surface. I would go with something more like this:

As far as jackets, I think 1, 2, and 3 all look good. Just find the one that looks best on you after trying it on.

I don't like scarfs, i have a good watch that would fit the outfit, but is any bracelet needed?

A leather wristband is a good addition. Something like this:

jacket #3

shoes #2

Franco is right on with the wrist band. I have a couple that are similar to that. I have gotten compliments pairing a leather one with a cloth one on the same wrist as well. Just be careful with the leather ones when the weather gets hotter, they can get kinda stinky haha :)

Hey Ezio,

I prefer baseball leather jackets, but they usually look better in other colors than black.
If you're going for the all black bad boy look I really like jacket #4, it's very similar to these two: http://syndicate.details.com/post/chitown, http://sexystyleforjoe.com/how-to-look-like-a-bad-boy/

I like shoes #2. They are nice dress shoes, but like Franco said not chelsea boots. If you're determined on getting chelsea boots I'd like to recommend these pretty sick diesel boots:

I recently bought the same pair in leather brown. Good luck!

Thank you all for these great suggestions! I think tvktvk nailed it, i think this(http://sexystyleforjoe.com/how-to-look-like-a-bad-boy/) was the exact thing i was looking for. Plus, considering that the one who wrote this article is the same author who put almost the same in girlschase. That's great!

I'm choosing the outfit suggested in that link-sexystyleforjoe.

My questions, guys, now are:

In the article in the girlschase, the author suggests to use it in bars and clubs. I do not frequent bars and clubs often, so i was wondering if i could use it in day game or as an everyday outfit, even going dressed like that in college, without the tie - or with it? , even if it is a bit too intense.

I like this outfit really much and the impression of me it would give to people, as much as i would like to wear it everywhere, with some expections of course.

Ezio, go for it.

This outfit is great for day game as well.
As a side note, wear clean jeans instead of distressed ones, or you'll lose the elegance. I prefer dark-wash skinny jeans or I go black altogether.

Now go get them!

Thank you for your thought,Rafox!

Dude,

Outfit is good for day game too, but remember to mix it up a bit. Use different types of t-shirts and button downs, different types of jeans and shoes. It's fine to have the biker jacket as your go-to jacket, but I personally like to have different jackets in my rotation depending on what I'm in the mood for. You also have to account for the weather. If you live in a place with a very warm and sunny climate I would not recommend sweating around in a black leather jacket. I also think shiny dress shoes and ties are a bit too formal for day game. Unless you wake up a particular day and feel super classy, I would skip it ;) Here's a few examples on how to mix it up(literally just googled iamgalla biker jacket):

Hello, gents!

I have updates on this outfit that I've been working to create.

Considering all the suggestions you gave me and then looking for the possibilities available to me, I decided to take this jacket:

http://g02.a.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1ujGz...metric-Turn-down-Collar-Fashion-Woven-Men.jpg

It looks classy and maybe bad-boyish. I have ordered it online, so the size was not ideal. Even though, it fits exactly the arms and waist line, it is tighter under the arms, which makes it a little bit hard to move my arms up. I wear it with a white dress shirt with black colored buttons. I will use this outfit for college and day outings and until now I've been told it is appropriate to use it for such occasions.

I surely want your honest opinions on that.

Now I am looking for some jeans/pants and shoes, to match with my jacket.

One of the options for jeans/pants that I really like are these:

http://g01.a.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1OUsrKpXX ... -Pants.jpg

However, I don't know sure if they look sexy or appropriate for the image I want to convey or if they look sexy at all. Or maybe they make me look soft. I am also worried that I might look a little bit gayish with these(no offense). Is this objection true?

For the shoes, I found this option, as I can't afford Chelsea Boots, or shoes over 30$ currently. So here it is:

http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/0OYAAOSw~ ... s-l500.jpg

The image I want to portray is that of a sexy, value, mysterious, classy, smart, "you would not want to mess with me" man.
--

So, what are your opinions on these? Am I making the right choices?

What else would you suggest?

I'm very much in agreement with all that's been said here. I just want to throw a couple more things out there
(1) Jewellery -- I suggest a 24" claspless 7mm curb link neck chain, its quite visible with an open necked shirt, also a good watch and rings -- what the jewellery does is lift the outfit so it's not too grungy.
(2) Chelsea boots, well as a proud Aussie I will shamelessly plug R M Williams boots, I believe they are the best in the world, handmade in South Australia. They have traditional leather soles (Craftsman -- a bit slippery and hard on the feet for daily wear, but I have hardened the fuck up and love the traditional style), or rubber soles (Comfort Craftsman). I have wide feet and there's a few different width choices, I wear an 11 in any other shoes, but 10 in R M Williams with absolutely no wasted space, they fit perfectly. And they make my feet look quite pointy and elegant. I chose a standard cow leather but they also have kangaroo and many other great leathers.
(3) Shirt -- either white with black detailing, sharply ironed -- or a faded khaki for a very casual look. I have had compliments on both.
(4) Pants -- jeans, agreed that I personally don't like distressed, I like super dark designer jeans, although my go-to pair is now just SLIGHTLY faded which I like. Check your length carefully as any bunching below the knee looks shit. Consider having the seams taken in so you can tuck the jeans into the boots.
(5) Other options -- I was lucky enough to find a well fitting black blazer (suit jacket) that substitutes for the leather jacket for a more upmarket look. With either jacket I also like to wear white pants and a checked (green or red) shirt for a more metrosexual look, received a compliment on this the other day.
(6) Care of your boots & jacket -- super important, use a leather conditioner (white waxy substance) every week and black shoe polish several times a week on your boots. For the jacket try not to let it get wet (or at least not soaked) and use a renovating furniture polish on it to keep it black -- this is because furniture polishes are designed not to stain clothes.

Hello S.Gent and Ray!

Thanks for your valuable input!

Ray, the specific products you have suggested me are currently out of my budget reach. Also, I have to add that my jacket shown above is not real leather, it is faux leather, so I don't know if the care tips you provided apply to it too..?

If you could,guys, give me a thought on the jacket that I have already bought and on the jeans that I proposed to buy.

And guys, please, if you can, check again my last post(before this one) in this thread and if you have direct answers to the questions I asked in there, I would be glad and happy to hear them!

Wish you a good time!

-Ezio.

Jacket #2 looks good. Keep it simpler. Boots #1 look nice and clean. Please not boots #2. A square toe is not an acceptable style choice. It looks clunky and makes me cringe at boots that, with a rounded toe, would be fine.

I am not a good person to chose. My style is more chinos, button-up and dress casual shoes. This is because I am too old to do bad boy and be taken seriously.

Jimmy,

I have already bought the jacket. About the boots, Drexel chose #2. Since he has more credibility, could you please explain why a square toe is not an acceptable style choice? Or just a preference of yours?

S. Gent,

That's fine, bro.

Still nobody answering my last post.

Hi Ezio!

I'll try to answer your inquiries as best as I can. Perhaps I should tell you that I'm in Darius' Facebook style group, if credibility is important to you.

Now, the jacket looks neat. Good choice.
But with the pants and the shoes you chose, you're waaaay too far in edgy territory. Not a sign of elegance there, and also, the shirt would look very much out of place with all those edgy items. I hope you understand what I am trying to say.

But, if you replace those pants with a well fitting black pair of jeans, and those shoes with more elegant/feminine shoes such as a pair of chelsea boots (I got some for 40 bucks from asos) or any other pair of simplistic boots, then we're talking.
Oh, and a slim black tie is a bonus. And get a leather or black bead bracelet (guylook.com is pretty cheap, so is asos.com) so you keep the bad boy look.

And as for the image you communicate with EBB:
Sexy, mysterious, hard to wrap your head around, but not so much classy and smart. That's dress shoes, blazers, sunglasses etc. territory.

That's all that comes to mind right now. Sorry for the delayed answer, hope I helped.

Cheers!

Hello, RAFox.

I'm sorry too for the late reply, I thought that nobody replied and my topic was sunk, however I just randomly went to my posts and saw the reply. I was so happy to see it!

That was an answer that I liked very much. It exactly and directly answered my last post with questions.

However, I would like to know more, maybe send you some photos and ask you some more questions through PM, if that would not bother you.

Best regards,

-Ezio.
