Hi guys,
Just trying to sort out an outfit for a big night out tonight. Relatively dressy club so I thought I'd hit the vintage shops and get a couple of silk scarves. Struggling to feel completely confident with the look though. Thoughts?

Outfit consists of:
Grey tweed blazer
Grey Paisley Pocket Square
Pink Oxford Shirt
Grey vintage silk scarf
Slim indigo jeans
Tan desert boots
IMO the scarf, pocket square and shirt colour is a bit much.
I'd switch the shirt for a plain white/grey v-neck or scoop tee, and neatly fold the pocket square so only a little bit of it is showing.
Where are you going?
I really don't understand where you people go to need to dress up that much for a club. Maybe I just go in the wrong sorts of places.
I would go with pins, switch the shirt for a tee, keep the scarf. You could potentially lose the pocket square altogether (you don't always need one), you're wearing silk scarf, that should be your centre piece.
How about this?
- Swapping the pink shirt for a plain white vee neck t-shirt
- losing the pocket square
-swapping the jeans for burgundy chinos
- keeping the scarf
Actually, fuck the chinos. I'll keep the jeans.

Look B:
White tee (H and M)
Navy blazer (Holland Esquire)
Paisley silk scarf (Tootal)
Jeans (Gap)
Desert boots (ASOS)
The scarf / tee combo is much better.
You don't need burgundy chinos with that, the outfit has enough going on already - good call on the jeans.
Still want to know where you're going! You're in Bristol right?
I don't know where I'm going aha, all I was told was "dress up".Quote:

Stick with the second one.
Less is definitely more Nath. The first pic was in danger of looking a bit try-hard. I like the second one, and it shows off the scarf a bit more.
Are you now wearing a navy blazer with indigo jeans though? Does it look a bit much all together? Maybe break up with some grey cords or something, if you have any?
And the shoes seem a bit casual too. Just some brown derbies would do the trick.
