  of course it is not to please me. people maybe ok with it, but do you really know what they are thinking in their hearts? imagine meeting a potential client at the neighbourhood provision shop. and you're look really sloppy. what will they think of you? besides, being decently dressed doesnt mean you cant be comfortable. something as simple as a collared t shirt is able to make alot of difference in the way you present yourself. (btw, the collared t shirt is merely an example, there are of course many other ways to look casual yet decent.)

  i really dont understand why people keep saying 'i just want to be comfy'. as i mentioned, what is so uncomfortable about wearing a better looking berms and a t shirt of good cutting? does it itch like hell when you wear a decent shirt?
  
  the thing is, if you really cant be bothered to think. go try something that makes you feeeeeel good and flatters you. then buy ten of them. like that you dont have to think about what to wear and look proper at the same time.

  why cant they put in an effort in dressing? berms and t shirt can be interesting if you play with the colors and cutting.
  i hope to see more guys dress like the dior homme boys. <3

  NPNT.

  of course, being comfortable is one thing. but not to the extend you become sloppy. how to be ourselves and not follow other people's style? everything has been done before.
  
  to the person who wonder if i dress up even if i were to just go to the neighbourhood foodcentre. i dont dress up as in plan on what to wear, but i do dress decently. (read: not wear pyjamas.) someone once told me, you never know who you meet, especially if its someone like a potential client or your boss, impression always counts, no matter what people say.

  You know, thats what i think too, therefore I usually almost always choose what I wear to present myself a certain way, not over the top like "this shirts gonna make me 10% sexier" or whatever but .. you know what I mean.
  
  I have a friend who dresses very well, even if we're just going to Al-Ameen or something haha but you can see he's the most presentable most of the time. I agree alot of singaporeans do not dress very well but I dunno, I can see the logic of "why dress up if im going downstairs for char kway tiao" haha
  
  We can't change people, it's up to them what they wanna wear.

  If a guy looks good, got good body, wear almost anything will look good. If guy ugly, and got ugly body, wear beautiful clothes oso no use. Its the person that carries the clothes, not the clothes that carry the person. Whole package counts.
  
  If got no looks try to dress well, points given.
  If got no looks, dress like shit, go to hell.
  
  If got looks, dress well, wah! model leh!
  if got looks, dress like s-hit, wait a minute, let me think how stingy can you be.
  
  They dont dress well either because they bo chap or they simply have no dress sense.
