Mine are quite slim.
fair enough then, should look fine
There are some really interesting arguments here, and I kinda agree with everyone in a way.
But I think ultimately whilst I agree that style should be subjective, and down to the individual, it is impossible to separate it from society's influence. Because we are only individuals when we are placed in society, and so we can only have the capacity to be stylish, within society too.
As individuals we might hate oxford shirts and brogues, but society tells us that they look good and gives them their character, and whatever we might personally think, it doesn't detract from that. Of course I'm a firm believer that people should wear whatever they want, but I would also agree with an above poster that the advice that's given on this forum is largely a reflection of the "tried and tested" fashion customs of society, but also with some of the contemporary fashion that's considered "safe".
And speaking of brogues I just bought these bad boys:

Meh. Even if I had 300£ I don' think I would pull the trigger. Hopefully it will go into sales.

I know right! I love their jumpers, the fair isle stuff is really cool.

Does anyone/has anyone been to the Pull & Bear store on Oxford St?
I've been before it got refurbed. They have some nice stuff in there but I'm always unsure of the quality. They do some cool Chelsea boots though.
I am seriously considering dropping ~£300 on Edwin jumpers tbh 
I live close by so I'm around once in a while.
I have a while ago, not a fan tbh, their stuff looks aright online but IRL the quality doesn't look great.

As much as I love clothes, I feel like rent should probably take priority.
Just seen this, you disgust me. The more clothes you have, the warmer you will be sleeping in a cardboard box

But where will I put them all?!
I'm looking for a jumper but being on the slightly skinnier side i want one that's more of a slim fit. I wanted this http://www.asos.com/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2956711 but its now out of stock.
Does anyone have any recommendations on good jumpers preferably ones that are a bit more tighter?
Thanks!
