Honest opinion? I dunno. You put any 23-or-so-year-old in a suit and they look like they’re playing dress-up in their daddy’s closet. You’re thin, so that helps. Obviously shave (use a safety razor to, electrics don’t do it for dark haired men). The pants are too white. Go with a tan-ish to copper colored khaki. If you walk into a suit-needing situation, you can do everything else right but still screw up if you don’t have RECENTLY POLISHED laced up dress shoes. Make sure they are the same color as your belt. If you are going to go tie-less make sure that your undershirt isn’t visible–better yet buy a dress shirt that doesn’t have the traditional collar type. If you do choose a tie, learn to tie something other than the half/single windsor. I know a lot of young guys gravitate towards the black dress shirt with the black blazer (often with white pants or tie). This will lose you the job interview you wear it to. Again, don’t know what you are buying it for, but if it is job hunting, go to a hairstylist, find the gayest stylest you can find and ask him to give you a parted “traditional 1950s male” haircut suited to match your face. Individuality is a benefit given to people who already have their dream job.
