Buying a suit....ooof...

in #life6 years ago

I never wear suits in normal life....ever.

In general I like clothes that allow me to move in any direction without the chance of tearing apart.

Maybe the last time I wore a suit was at my moms wedding.

But I'm not even sure about it.

I still have that suit but after trying it on I realised that it had shrunk....by a lot.

Must have been rubbish quality.

Considering we have 3 weddings coming up in the foreseeable future I had no choice today to go get one.

I suggested we go to Makro for something simple to Bianca but I got that look.....that look that any men knows......

So...off to a proper shop we went.

Here is part of the end result:

It wasn't easy trying to find something that would fit me.

I'm a big guy and the world is not build for us.

But eventually we found something that fit.

I just had to get on this chair so the guy could stick needles in it for adjustments. (He hurt his back pretty bad in the morning apparently).

I found the experience so intense that I totally forgot to take pictures of the whole process.

Something like that doesn't happen a lot unless things are way too heavy.

Bianca took this and I guess it says it all.

I look like a deer caught in the headlights.

I was glad when I could put my own clothes back on.

It's just way more comfortable.

But at-least I will look sharp the 3 times I will wear it!

My last suit purchase also had 3 potential wearing. The first was my son’s wedding. The second will be my mother’s funeral. The third will be my funeral. Oh... well...

LOL! I'm not sure if it's appropriate but you had me in stitches!

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

You don't strike me as one who would like to go around in suits but this one fits you well. But instead of a white shirt, have you considered something like sky blue shirt?

Yes, but not allowed. Rules of two weddings I'm attending.

Oh wedding?? White is better then. Have fun.

Damn son! Looking like a million STEEM! :-)

Thanks!

Not bad at all even if you do look like a deer caught in the headlights. Good job getting him there, Bianca! You sound like my husband, hated ties and suits but required them for work for 18 years. Then we moved south for homesteading and somewhere in the transition the suit got lost...🤣

Excellent photos, my friend and although I also do not like suits, but I prefer sports clothes, but I must admit the costume goes to you and you look impressive in it. You're right, it's only three times and of course it's better to wear those clothes that are comfortable and spacious, which I also prefer, but a couple of times I can suffer for a responsible day, haha! Thanks Mark

You look great man!


Congrats, you made the #steemitminute for today!

Yes... Definitely the suit shrunk hahaha.

Hahahaha... that look. Beware the look!!
But at-least I will look sharp the 3 times I will wear it!
Keep going to the gym bro, it could shrink too hahaha

Good lord, it's 007!!! :0)

"The name is yle, exyle!"

I still have that suit but after trying it on I realised that it had shrunk....by a lot.

It magically shrunk with time... been there done that, it's the magic of food and a lot of steemit, its actually happening to me rigth now :P

Can't be! lol!

Wow really awesome and looking gorgeous and handsome too. You were very lucky because of Bianca was with you, got the perfect size, and i enjoyed that you had to need a chair. Now i advise please don't give up wearing this beautiful suit .

Looking good! I love men in suits :3

An unusual view but in my opinion,​ it looks great :)

Thanks! And unusual indeed!

Before the first James Bond movie was filmed, Ian Fleming told Sean Connery to put on the tuxedo and wear it for a couple of weeks. Regardless of where he was going. He asked that Connery wear the suit until it becomes a part of him.

It looks like you've found a suit that already fits you like that.

Tell Bianca she was correct in taking you to that shop.

@bkdbkd will like to hear that!

Sometimes, when you find the right woman, you also find the "always right" woman. ;-)

Considering we have 3 weddings coming up in the foreseeable future...

I have to admit, even though you don’t like suits, which I don’t either, you look great. People say the same about me, that I look great in suit, when I’m forced to wear suit.
lol you look really surprised 😮, but you look funny though, I mean your face.

Perfect fit
Looking smart

I hate suits man... here in Brazil, on summer is hot as hell, and sometimes when I need to go to a customer, I need to suit it up. Think about that, wearing a black suit, 2PM with 40 degrees celcius...

Guess where two of the three wedding will be!

hahaha... The weddings will be in Brazil ?
If it will be, I will pray for you to be here in winter, when the hot is not sooo hot.

Haha true! They will happen in the end of August and beginning of September, so, it could be worse! 😜

@bkdbkd, end of August and begging of September is a good date. It's begging of the Spring, amazing period for a date.

"I just had to get on this chair so the guy could stick needles in it for adjustments. (He hurt his back pretty bad in the morning apparently)."

You are right.
I've kicked his ass after hurting me with the needles!

Hi exyle. Lol. We always end up where we don't want to go. Getting a suit is a painful experience especially when we know how often we will wear it. Looks good on you though and hopefully this one wont "shrink". Most of my clothes have shrunk as they don't fit me anymore, must also be poor quality lol.

Nice suit @exyle! Found you through the steemit minute show and @reseller. You are looking sharp!

Thank you!

You look great on suit , like really. Suits look great on tall people. And may the old suit didn't shrink, maybe....

Dear friend, I'm just going to tell you that you look beautiful, a suit always makes a difference in a man, and it never feels bad to see a galan like you wearing a suit like that, you look great.

oh you are looking very handsome in this suit

Always trying new things great sir looking great @exyle

Hhaha. Your stories are always amusing! YES, I perfectly know they eyes we women give to men lmao. In other news, that's a perfectly fitting sharp looking suit. Dapper.

You just gotta wear it like you mean it Bro:)

That is a fancy suit in a fancy man.

Or was it the other way around xD

You could have bought a lot more Steem Power instead.
😉
Enjoy!

@exyle over thirty years of my life wear costumes, even as a child my grandfather gustave see me in suits. You imagine that now that I have no obligation to use them, I can not see them. However, to be honest with you. it suits you very well
excelent choice

@exyle Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!! Hello!! if you made me laugh with your experience in finding something appropriate for you! so also happened to my brother-in-law and my husband, however for my husband if it was quicker to find something was to my brother-in-law, at that time he was very fat, and he was half a few pants and shirts...hehehehehehehehehe....until he finally found his size... greetings from Venezuela!!!

Ah!!! You look great in the selection!!! Your wife sure fell in love again when she saw you like this!

Well I think you should get your money's worth @exyle and wear it to the final dinner at Steemfest. Then you'll get four wears of it. 😂

I love the expression on your face. It's classic! 😂

I'm impressed! You look very good suit, you seem businessman haha now if you can say you're ready to go to those events and surprise everyone with your new look :)

Suit doesn't suit you as much as your casual wears do.

You look Great in a suits though! But I can totally imagine that it’s not very comfortable... 😂

It suits you!

hehe looks good!

Suit looks more amazing on you time to gear up for the pro stuff ;)

It looks very nice, if that makes you feel any better. I used to have a suit maybe 15 years ago when I applied for my current job. Haven't needed it since. I don't think I even own it anymore!

This suit really suits you dear. Keep up the good work. You look really stunning and handsome. You really have to get some for special occasions. Even i dont like these fit clothes coz they make me feel awkward.
