They were usually black and accompanied by whatever jeans I could pull out of my closet. At some point I kicked that (well, almost, I wore a plain black tee yesterday, urm, but yeah,) I kicked the habit and started dressing in nicer tees. Yes, a SINGLE step up!

At some point last August I realized I wasn’t quite comfy being the guy in the tee. I hate polo-styled shirts and only own one, which I’ve worn once. So I took a step into dress-shirts and ties.

Now at every social occasion I’m usually wearing one of my many nice shirts, and ties. As of lately, unless I know I HAVE to dress-up, I tend to loosen the collar and tie, while rolling up my sleeves, and pairing it up with nice jeans lately… you know, so I won’t look like a total dork. Even like that, I’m still usually over-dressed.

I even go to class randomly wearing my spiffy get-up –so to speak, for no apperant reason which gets people asking what I was doing before I got to class; “Job interview today?”

So the question is, should I ease up or not give a damn? I tend to get a lot of compliments on what I’m wearing, but I also feel weird standing next to those my age that are wearing torn jeans and a shirt straight out of Hot Topic.

Quick fact: My favorite tie just happens to be purple.
