I constantly lol at people who dress like RX and Wj. Yes, that's a lot of people.

No offense though.



The only reason I lol is because I dress casual virtually 7 days out of the week unless I'm forced to dress non casual. I just don't get why anyone would dress up if not forced too.
That's just me though.



There is no right or wrong way of dressing. Neither is there a better or worse way.
I don't see how anything dude with the purple shortsis wearing is any worse than anyone I lol at.

I kinda agree with you and I don't. I always laugh when I see people wearing suits on Saturdays or at clubs, because you know damn sure they don't have a job that requires them to wear a suit and they're just faking it. Anyone who actually wears a suit Monday - Friday takes it off the SECOND they get home.

I also live in gym shorts and sandals, which is basically the epitome of casual. But I definitely don't laugh at people that dress up, just those that are clearly forcing it.

Some people, like myself, who wears business attires for work feels comfortable wearing the same or similar stuff outside of work.
Trust me, maybe when I was in high school, I would have been with you guys. Jeans and tee were my staple other than the occasional polo I mix up with khaki's or slacks once in a while.
But there are people out there who wears suits to work and their casual clothes are khaki's with a sportshirts and loafers.
They feel completely comfortable with it and when they go for some baggy sweatpants with a large hoody, that becomes uncomfortable to them.
Me, I can mix it up. But my casual days mostly consists of khaki or chino with some low profile sneakers and sport shirt.
I only own two pairs of jeans and even then I wear it with a s/s button up or a simple sportshirt. I rarely wear jeans and tee, hell I haven't even worn Jordans in almost a year other than the BMP I's.

There are those people who try too hard, wearing a suit to clubs or a sport coat as a dinner jacket when going out but there is a population out there that finds it very comfortable and consider it casual.
There was also a time when these are standard casual clothes. Check out the old movies or old pictures, casual clothes consists of sportshirts and slacks. Some of those styles also included wearing tweed suits in the summer with fedora's. Believe it or not, but those are more or less casual. So it really is about what you are accustomed to.

I guess my point it (to summarize) it is not necessarily dressing up just because a person wears a sportshirt with chino's, hell sportshirts are meant to be casual and "elitist" will laugh at some for trying to pass it up as formal or even semi-formal. The same with loafers, it is a casual shoe and some people will laugh if someone tries to pass it up as formal or worn with a business suit.

And again, i think the point of thread has been misunderstood. It is not about dressing up, but dressing better. Which in definition really is subjective and these suggestions and examples should be taken in and be incorporated to your own style. It helps those who are curious or has question how to dress more appropriately in different occassions. Just because you are just going to the mall doesn't mean you have to go wearing shorts and tees.
