I'm showing my lack of sophistication here, but what are the differences between the two outfits to the left?

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah its the pants. Man wish we could dress nice like this and it be considered normal.

[–] Beacon@fedia.io 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It probably depends on where you live. Here in nyc or wouldn't be considered weird

"Here in nyc or"

You either need to add a second location r someone needs to get to the bottom of why Oregon cannot come up with unique names for cities.

Probably just a typo for "it".

Hey you got down voted but I thought it was pretty funny. There's Albany, Arlington, Dallas, Dayton, Detroit, Glendale, Jacksonville, Lexington, Oakland, Pittsburg, Salem

Portland as well because Im sure Maine had that first.

It's a four-piece consisting of a blazer, an overshirt and two trousers.

The description is made in this order:

Left bottom: business suit (blazer with matching trousers)
Left top: sports suit (blazer with contrasting trousers)
Right bottom: solid casual (overshirt with matching trousers)
Right top: contrasting casual (overshirt with contrasting trousers)

If you zoom in the top two pictures the man has on checkered pants.

I think the pants and tie are slightly different
