Where to buy cardigan online?

Purple Gorilla

I posted here before about a tie (Please see that thread!)

Well I'm also looking for the cardigan or a cardigan like the one in the pic in the thread above (Plain, grey, slim-fit)

Preferrably I'm looking to buy it online but River Island only has Extra Large left and Topman doesn't have any plain ones. Is there anywhere else I can try that isn't higely expensive?

So if I were to wear:
.Medium-Dark grey, slightly metallicy slacks

.Blue with thick white Pin stripes

.Pink Tie

.Darkish (or light...not sure which to get) grey cardigan

Would it look good?

I was thinking something like this

I think too much grey there, the trousers and cardigan. Dark trousers I think

Penneys actually have one exactly like that right now. I have a couple and they wash very well, only nine quid too

I find Grey cardigans difficult to match with slacks, there's too much disparity if you wear black slacks and its tough to match them with the right shade of grey if you're going for grey slacks. Go for very dark navy IMO or dark navy or black jeans

Have a look at these guys looks and try see what suits you

Would it be ok enough if I kept the grey slacks, but got a navy cardigan?

Purple Gorilla

Thought it mught help if I post pics of what I have so far (Btw I'm still undecided on which slacks to wear..it's for 4th year graduation):

Perfection. Very hot.

Purple Gorilla

Well now the question is, where can I get a navy cardigan?

Don't wear that shirt if you're going with navy cardigan and grey slacks because the stripes are too pronounced, just go for a plain white or light striped shirt. This look is a good example of what I mean and I have the cardigan myself, its beautiful

Or cheaper cardigan but not as nice

Now, Gorilla, you've to wear clothes in proportion to your physique. There are definite dos and don'ts, good buddy of wearing a bold striped shirt. A bold stripe shirt calls for solid colored or discreetly patterned suits and ties.

By the way I think Zara were selling the tie he was wearing in the first pic

Purple Gorilla

Well now I'm just thinking I'll get a waistcoat instead! So confusing ;_;

jdivision

Don't get a waistcoat!

phasers

You're getting very dressed up for TY grad!

Avoid a waistcoat, it's very "try-hard".

A navy cardigan (Which can be bought in any kind of 'young' male store) and a plain shirt with the first pair of slacks will look good and nicely dressy casual imo

Purple Gorilla

That's how we do it in my school!!!

The only thing I'm afraid of is, everyone is wearing waistcoats and slacks or a blazer, shirt and slacks...

I'm afraid I won't be dressed up enough!!!

Deflector

Nope - the majority will turn up in the usual ill-fitting sheet-like shirts, trousers that are a size too big and nasty fat ties. The odd one will wear a contrived waistcoat.

Stick to the sharp slacks, navy cardigan, fitted light blue shirt and a narrow tie, and you'll look effortlessly cool.

LOL at Johnny Utah

I wore my uniform to Grad. That's how I roll....

Well, my uniform followed by my 'Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat', which we shall not discuss.

Yes, always tip the stylist 15%. Listen, Gorilla, I've gotta go, T. Boone Pickens just walked in.

[laughs]

Just joking. No, don't tip the owner of the salon. Okay Gorilla? Right? Got it.

Do River Island ship to Ireland? MUCH cheaper online.
