b3ta, my question is simple, but urgent:
Would you consider it a fashion faux pas to wear an open long-sleeved shirt over a buttoned-up short-sleeved shirt?

(The shorter one is white, the outer one is black & matches my jeans)
(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 20:53, archived)
Yes, you fucking idiot.

(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 20:53, archived)
Wear one shirt and man up, you bloody ponce.

(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 20:53, archived)
Yes. It would look stupid.

(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 20:54, archived)
He could wear a tie with the short-sleeved one, then he wouldn't look so stupid.

(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 20:55, archived)
People would just assume he was a bit retarded.

I don't own a tie

Honestly, what sort of man doesn't own a single tie?

(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 21:01, archived)
The sort of man who thinks it's acceptable to wear two shirts.

You're one of these people who takes an enormous hard plastic suitcase with wheels on it
to go for a week's holiday, I'll bet.
(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 21:01, archived)
Nope.
I have got packing down pat.

And I can't remember the last time I went on a week's holiday. Woe.
(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 21:02, archived)
I do this.
Because then I have more space for things.
(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 21:03, archived)
How many things do you need for a week?
I appreciate the fact that men's clothes are five times the size as women's ones, but that's just crazy.
(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 21:04, archived)
A week's worth of underwear, a few clean tops and a spare pair of jeans, just in case.

Oh yeah, toothbrush, razor and deodorant too.

(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 21:09, archived)
pretty much this,
except I can fit a week's worth of tops in the space a single man's shirt would take up.
I also take another pair of shoes and a couple of skirts. This all fits into a small backpack.

Things to bring back possibly?
When we went on our roadtrip in the US, we packed everything into a smaller case, and then put that into a larger case.
This meant that we had room to bring back things we had bought on the journey.

That was when the exchange rate was almost £1:$2 so we stocked up on stuff!

Yeah
Possibly OK over a t-shirt, but two buttoned shirts sounds a little odd.

Why would you wear two shirts?

(, Sat 6 Jun 2009, 20:55, archived)
Because he actually has four arms.

I tried wearing a blazer over the short-sleeve shirt
but it looked too formal, so I put on another casual long black shirt, which has a similar effect without the formality, but is blatantly wearing two shirts.

Not for me.
Especially not a short sleeved button up shirt. Eugh. Wrong in almost all circumstances. Longsleeved with sleeves rolled up looks so much better.

Open shirt with sleeves rolled up?
Be careful and specific here, your membership in the '87 club depends on it.

no no no nononononoononon.
One shirt. Long sleeved. Sleeves rolled up. Two shirts is out of the question.

But still t-shirt + shirt is generally to be avoided.

I rock that look. I rock it HARD. And I'm in the '87 club, so it must be a good look.
