How to Wear a Button Up Shirt
 
I am really bad at posting and here is another example. I am going out tonight and will be wearing a button up solid black shirt and jeans. Do I tuck it in or leave it out? Note: I am 41 and have absolutely no fashion sense.

tuck out, don't do the top button, go another button down if you have a desireably muscular/tan/hairy chest, and as many as you want if you are Patrik Antonius

jesus dude. standard

Did you not see that I have no fashion sense? I'm not exaggerating here. I'll have a black t-shirt under it.

Yeah, I'm pale, hairy, and I have no musculature. I only do the shirt + no undershirt when it's too hot.

Then shave your chest.

*queue something about how today's men are so feminine or something about it being gay to shave your chest*

Ok so then be proud of your hairy chest.

I think its a pretty bad choice for him still, but when you are good looking you can wear a toga and look good.

I think this is only acceptable if you are ripped, and even then...

OP,

I'd run the hairy chest all day, but I ain't 40. White undershirt is probably most appropriate, especially if it isn't too hot out. Definitely don't wear a black undershirt or a wifebeater with a solid black dress shirt.

Also, since you are wearing your shirt tucked out w/blue jeans, you probably need black shoes

Also, if thats you in the avatar, I'd stick with w/e you are wearing there. It does a good job of outlining your wild side.

Maybe just trim the hair a little bit?

Re: How to Wear a Button Up Shirt
 
nc,

Make sure it's not dress shirt cut at the bottom, and if it is, find a new shirt to wear or wear some black slacks and tuck it. Nothing looks worse than a shirt that's meant to be tucked in but it's not.

Hollywade 09-29-2007 07:52 PM

Re: How to Wear a Button Up Shirt
 
Leave the top two unbuttoned and do not tuck it in.

I am really surprised that so many people are suggesting a black undershirt. I really white for the contrast.

If you don't wear an undershirt, chicks will be able to see your hairy chest. Believe it or not, some chicks dig guys with hairy chests. boom!

What do you mean cut? I'm not wearing the black shirt. Going with a a red shirt. Black t-shirt underneath. I don't know if it's cut. I actually think it looks pretty good.

For some reason I think white is hideous. It surprises me that I think this because I really shouldn't know better.

Don't wear an undershirt. If you feel like you have to wear something underneath, wear a black beater. Don't wear visible white undershirts. Ever.

I think the jeans may do it there, they look really cool, I wish I could see them instead of just a tiny portion. It's like, simple classy black shirt with the jeans adding some flare.

Re: How to Wear a Button Up Shirt
 
It's hard to find good pictures, but a casual button down is usually cut pretty much the same all around the bottom. There will be a tad bit more fabric on the front and back than on the sides, but not much, like so :

http://bennieswestern.com/shop/image..._71130CS_f.jpg


A dress button down is cut so there is a lot more fabric in the front and the bottom than on the sides. It's so when you move around with the shirt tucked in, your waist moving (from such things as sitting and standing) won't untuck the shirt in the front or back. I hope you can see from this pic :

http://www.historyinthemaking.org/gr...white%2090.jpg

That one is an exaggerated dress button down. Not all are that exaggerated but hopefully you see my point that it looks stupid to wear the second shirt untucked. Many people still do it but I hear from women all the time how sloppy it looks and there was also an article in GQ about it not too long ago.

If I didn't regularly wear an undershirt, the outer shirt would look disgusting because it would always be getting sweat-stained.
