Sweater, Button up shirts, Polos, Metal spike boots, and try some business casual sneakers or somn.

>>17996159
tl;dr button-up dress shirt (you can be creative!) + khaki pants + non-childish shoes

>>17996212
What’s your profession?

>>17996246
I'm a Registered Nurse, I wear scrubs to work and then wear gym clothes on the weekend because I live in Australia where's 35 degrees in summer right now

>>17996219
Can you recommend some non-sneaker shoes?

>>17996257
Boots
Loafers
Oxfords
Sandals
Go to literally any store or website that sells shoes and look at your options. I personally prefer wide toebox/"barefoot" shoes but that's more of an question of comfort than aesthetics/fashion.

I'm shocked, your pants are supposed to fit without a belt? I don't think that would work on me. I have wide shoulders and equally wide hips, I need a belt for anything going above the hips.

>>17996212
>I'm 26 and I have no 'adult' clothes and no idea how to dress.

Thrift for two years or you will make a fool of yourself. I know that sounds discouraging so let me explain.
You are probably [rightfully] worried about looking like a manchild hypebeast when you hit your 30s, I understand that. But without first developing style you will end up looking like an NPC and never understand that fashion should feel good. So make some mistakes now and before you know it you will be answering your own questions.

Like a lot of people are suggesting a sportscoat or blazer, which is fine except:
>What cut?
>What kind of pockets?
>Structured or unstructured?
>What material?

Go thrift and then come back when you have cultivated these preferences. WAGMI bro. No shortcuts!

You can still get away with some deliberately fashionable clothing choices in the second half of your 20s, you just can't overdo it. Nothing 'experimental' or 'high fashion' unless you're already exist on those circles which obviously you don't since you're asking this question. The real tip is to stay in good shape. A big reason why 25+ people start to look unfashionable is because their bodies start giving up on them. They get tubby from the 9-5 and the trendy stuff looks like shit on them. But an in-shape 30 year old isn't going to look tryhard in a fit like JAW's here.

>>17997722
Honestly just look up photos of paparazzi photos celebs around your current age and see what they wear.

>>17997722
The crotch has a massive tear wtf

>>17997725
You'll notice none of these fits I'm posting are very elaborate / contain statement pieces. Unfortunately yes, those days are behind you (if those even ever were your days). Yet they still suggest some thought has gone into the outfit and I would say still read 'fashionable' to the average person.

And sure, all these guys are attractive (and Jeremy Allen White and Paul Mescal are not even extraordinary looking) - but in any case nothing they are wearing would look out of place on an average looking 25-35 year old in decent shape.

Gonna choose to not be a cunt about this but I don't think actors in their 30s-40s are a good reference point since their entire job revolves around appearing at least a decade more youthful than they actually are. Same goes for models.

>>17997739
What does that really have to do with the fits in the question though? I see guys 25+ year olds dressed like this all the time.

Also at 25-35 you still look young unless you've treated your body like shit. The question is more about 'dressing to your age' which I would say all those fits are good examples of.

>>17997750
There’s got to be a middle ground between poorly dressed and copying lame celebrities who have to try to appeal to zoomers

>>17997750
See the thing is that I think this is the best possible shortcut that you have suggested, it is just not good. Op should be patient and do what >>17996316 suggested

>>17997762
their outfits are completely age appropriate are you insane? Or do you just live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere where people only shop at the big and tall store

>>17997770
Let's not be disingenuous here, you know what he means. Actors are trendy not stylish.

Why you need someone to tell you how to dress

If you can’t pull off edgy looks, it’s better to go for trad/classic and/or minimalist. You basically want to look like you’re a web model for J. Crew or Everlane.

>>17996212
>What clothes should I consider buying in order to dress my age?
Nobody expects a 26 year old to dress a certain way. So you already achieved your goal. Congratulations.
Now if you WANT to dress a certain way that's a different topic but you kind of have to figure out what you want to look like.

>>17999243
>t.idealist

>>18000010
Notice how nobody gives a shit about how he looks? All of you play way smaller roles in other people's lives than you think.
Nobody cares how you dress. Get over yourself and do things you enjoy doing.

>All of you play way smaller roles in other people's lives than you think.

This is one of those dollar store feel good aphorisms that just isn't true if you think about it for more than a minute and you aren't a total lost cause

>>17996212
If you have an office job, it's time to Beanmaxx. Bean boots, rag wool sweaters, chinos, straight cut jeans, checkered button ups, etc.

i dress how ever the fuck i feel and it's everyone else problem if i don't suit their taste

>>17997722
>nothing high fashion

Lmao what? Nobody in their early 20s can afford "high fashion" except ugly daddys girls

>>17997739
>those fits
>implying they are particularly trendy
>implying they aren't age appropriate for someone in their 20s and 30s
>implying that they are somehow relatable to high fashion models
Holy fucking shit you are a giga-retard or turbo-newfag. What the fuck are you even doing on this board you single digit IQ genetic deadbeat? Fucking hell this board is such a fucking joke now. I cannot believe we have retards here like yourself pretending banal normcore is somehow edgy or trendy. What a fucking joke.

>>18000968
You have no argument only menstrual cramps

>>18000873
No, he's right, we think more about what people think of us than they actually do. It's very powerful when you realize you don't care about somebody and they are borderline obsessed with what you think of them.

>>18000976
There is nothing to argue against. Those fits are basic as fuck. You're simply a retard. Who probably looks like >>18000010

>>18001001
>It's very powerful when you realize you don't care about somebody and they are borderline obsessed with what you think of them.

No, it sucks. You get stalkers and then you have to file a police report. Like I said that idiom is not universally applicable, some people wat to be popular and well-liked and get dow on themselves when it doesn't work, others are well-liked for absolutely no reason and all they want to do is spend more time alone

>>18001002
So you're saying this
>>17997722
>>17997725
>>17997728
Is fine for a 30+ yo that isn't an actor
but that
>>18000010 this is not?

>>18001026
Is this a rhetorical question or are genuinely this brain damaged?

>>18000010
Now post the same guy with the clothes actually fitting properly.

>>17996257
Black doc marten Chelsea boot. Goes with everything, slips on an off.

>>18001024
You sound like a schizophrenic. Pills now or I'll send more gangstalkers.

>>18001473
No, I am just terminally popular which I know sounds like a faggot hu,blebrag but idk what to do. If I could I would "redistribute the wealth" so to speak

>>17996212
dress shirts
polos
sweaters
leather jackets
suits
trousers
chinos
oxfords
loafers
boots

Lose the hoodies, distressed jeans, graphic tees, flashy sneakers and all the other zoomie shit. You can wear simple sneakers or plain t-shirts with no logos that fits you but rest of that shit gotta go. It looks stupid, any adult male or let's say any adult-sized male shouldn't wear those stuff. You mentioned that you're going to the gym, I'm guessing you're in shape so don't hesisate to wear adult clothes because they will fit you nicely.

>>18000693
BULLSHIT! This is manchild gibberish. Go on and get a nice fitting suit and you instantly will notice how people start to treat you differently. You walk around with a fucking graphic tee, jeans and running shoes and people don't respect you. People will judge you based on how you look, how you dress and how you behave. Because they are not fucking mind readers, they can't read your ''nice personality'' inside your brain. You should dress respectable if you want to be respected.

>>18002132
Based idiom ignorer. If you are a zoomer you should be proud.
