Real style is very seldomly displayed on these pages...rather just cookie cutter examples of what people have been told is stylish There is very rarely any expression of individuality

Did you post the ugliest outfit you could find, just so you could write this uber-defiant, anti-trendy post as a follow-up?
No one here just "believes $300 button-up dress shirts and a pair of $200 jeans is the epitome of fashion"...did you see everyone beasting over the $15 H&M shirt? I will agree that it's decidedly denim-centric around here, but all it would take is ONE of us to post a killer pair of summer slacks to change the tune for a few weeks...maybe you should be that guy, instead of the angry guy...
It would be one thing if your outfit was compelling in an unorthodox sort of way, but it just makes you look even shorter. As a short dude I shy away from anything that exacerbates my condition...as should anyone under six feet
EDIT - in this age of highly refined looks and blindingly precise manufacturing capabilities, everyone is wearing a variation on the same uniform. It only takes one small change in the size or cut of a piece (shirt, pants, shoes, whatever) to take an outfit from good to great...so you really don't have to go crazy in order to distinguish yourself. Bad things happen more often than not
