idk how to dress
hi i really need help with my style, i dress really basic right now and usually just wearing a hoodie together with jeans or cargo pants
i am unsure what kind of style would fit me well
i also dont wanna spend a fortune on clothes but do have a budget of 200€+

Show us some pictures of what kind of looks you think are cool, what kind of outfits you don’t consider to be too basic and we’ll try to recommend stuff!
i bought a leather jacket today but it was more or less of a panic purchase (because it was cheap and only one was left) so i might return
that’s a nice tone if it ends up working out
Ok I see some casual collared shirts, some wide jeans/ pants and plain tees, coupled with a leather jacket.
Would you like some recommendations for items like that or some help with color and stuff as well?
i style my hair in a middle part
very dark blonde hair
Looks like your style is quite close to these already from that one pic! The jeans look like they would swap into one of those outfits pretty well, and the hoody is cool too tbh. Agree, just some casual over shirts and a light jacket would pretty much get you there
yeah sure!
thank you so much! <3
do u guys think the leather jacket i bought is good or should i look for a different one?
In your price range I’d want to recommend Abercrombie for some shirts and stuff, you’ll find some good things there.
Also Bronson if you want some more vintagey/military type pieces.
The jackets in your pics are probably somewhat more slouchy and lived in than the one you’ll be getting. Have you considered getting a jacket second hand?
something like this?
Those don’t look half bad! Try not to be too married to what you consider your size. Be prepared to size up or down depending on your desired fit.
i have thought about it and looked a little (not much tho) but the thing i hate about second hand shopping like ebay or something is that u cant return the stuff and that it might look completely different than in the pictures 😭
or do u mean like a flea market or something
I’ve gotten great leather jackets at flea markets, and I don’t necessarily live in a very urban area
yeah definitely i gotta watch the prices tho
50 - 60 € for a shirt o.o
but ill look into it maybe it would be a good investment
i see, im gonna see if there are any flea markets ni my area soon
thank you so much guys for your help, i really appreciate it
Abercrombie gets very good value in the sale section
oooh i see
Zara might be good for you as well
i see ill look into it thank you a lot
Def. wait for sale or check out second hand options (measure an item you like and pick items with similar measurements)
Many cheaper options will often be more of the “falling apart” variety
Oh we almost forgot about :uniqlo:
They will have stuff in this style for sure
I think they key to the aesthetic you've got in your inspiration pics is: simple basics, oversized boxy fit, and layering of t-shirts / hoodies / jackets
With neutral colours
i hate to be the one to break this to you but that's called brown
oooh i see
good to know, ill check them out
noo 😭 i dont think its brown is it
idk
It really doesn't affect what clothes or style you can wear anyway so I wouldn't worry about it
If you're budget limited look into thrifting and vintage. If you find a piece and can imagine it in an outfit that you love which features
1. Utilizing clothes you have
2. Utilizing clothes you would like to have
Buy the item and experiment! Have fun and don't spend too much money as you learn, your style will come together through trial and error
yeah, don’t drive yourself into debt just to drive yourself into debt. make sure you like the things you’re getting
