This is not one dimensional we need more info. Age, location, target audience etc. Regardless though sandal with socks only get you laid in whorehouses.

Get a plain black shirt from Target that shows off your physique. Wear some jeans and a belt and some shoes and go out.

It’s not all that important. Look masculine. That’s all that’s important. A black shirt and a pair of jeans with some boots is a classic masculine look.

High fashion isn't as important as having a style that's coherent and consistent.

Whatever fashion choices you make need to take you into a particular lane you want to be in. The grossest punk rock dude will get pussy as long as he commits to his look and his lane -- just don't complain about getting Hep C.

I tend to go for some mix of dress shirt, blazer and jeans. Scruffy beard that tapers into fairly tight hair cut. I wear zero accessories, unless its scarf season -- then my inner fag goes fuckin nuts. I also have a nose that has been visibly broken and poorly healed (tragic gym class injury). It's a mix of tastefulness and roughness, and it works well for me because that's my lane in life anyhow. People regularly ask me is I'm a bouncer, the nightclub's owner, or ex-military.

The important thing is that your look says something. I have a friend who is a trippy-dippy late 70s punk rock kinda guy, and he looks the part the instant you see him. Within his lane, he absolutely maxes out his performance with women in that lane because he looks like the person you'd invent if you were making up a fictional version of him.

Conversely, I have a younger friend who can't bring himself to find a lane. He's dorky and odd, and basically his sex life is fat girls into kink. Why? Because when dorky and odd is the stylistic lane you occupy, you get the women who drive in that lane.

The underlying point is that your style needs to match the life you want. If it matches and it plays well, congratulations. Do moar! If it doesn't match and it doesn't play well, then get the fuck into the lab.

Also, cool humblebrag, bro.

I believe your sense of fashion shows who you are internally and also gives out a vibe. Does not need to be name brand clothing or expensive designer, piece it together so it compliments each other, preferably building up a wow-factor. It's just like when you see a HB9 with a nice tight dress that compliments her bodyshape.

A big factor is also your individual look and the environment you're in. You'd look stupid if you wore shorts and a t-shirt to a job interview, but you'd also look out of place if you wore a tailored suit to a Sunday cookout. Your surroundings ought to be considered when deciding what to wear.

Check out Rollo's article "Have a Look" for more on the subject.

I literally wear 10 dollar shirts my mom buys for me from target. As long as they fit and look good on me, I couldn’t care less what the brand they are. Oh and I’m not poor btw.

My dad on the other hand spends hundreds of dollars on Dolce and Gabba or whatever it’s called white shirts. Don’t be like him.

Fashion is important for how YOU feel. Personally i feel great wearing tucked in buttondowns. It all about fit and how it complements your body.
