Pants (I'm exceptionally partial to corduroys, but I wear jeans, too), a white undershirt, and a button-up shirt worn unbuttoned over said white undershirt. Win.

When it's slightly cooler, I swap out the button-ups for polos (worn as unbuttoned as I can get them), which are warmer (open button-ups provide no insulation, see?), and do that. Sometimes when it's cooler, I'll just toss a teeshirt (often a band shirt) over the undershirt, and then a button-up on top.

For winter, I just wear a jacket over the configuration for "slightly cooler."

For summer, I swap out my usual pants for short dickies. Top remains the same.

I don't know anybody who dresses like me regularly. Every now and again, somebody dresses like me, but nobody makes a habit of me--the exception is my slightly cooler attire, which is a style I borrowed from a friend just for such weather.

The rule of thumb for me is that I will always have a collar on somewhere.

It's nice, because when the weather is right for my teeshirt/button-up combo, it takes me thirty seconds to get dressed. I pull on pants and a teeshirt, and as I leave the room, grab a button-up--they hang from the curtain-rod that supports my "door" (read: Curtain) for access on the fly. My getup is very comfortable year-round.

Some people think I dress strangely because I dress so casually. But, quite frankly, I'm not a serious person, and dressing anything different usually leaves me feeling fake and constrained. I'd wear my getup to funerals--I think it dishonors the dead more to lie to them in fancy clothes than to wear casual clothes while telling the truth. But I have funky ideals, so...meh.

lets disect that, its not nerdy at all. imagine if a normal looking person was rockin those outfits. it'd look normal. matter fact the one kid got jordans on, can't hate on that. and for most of them, just needs a good hair cut and untuck they shirt. denzel washington was wearing same outfit as da old guy in one movie.

I don't really care what I wear. Loose fitting jeans and a t-shirt work fine for me, with the occasional polo shirt. Unless it's unbearably hot, I'm usually wearing a sweater, jacket, or hoodie.

80% of the time I care, but otherwise not.

I'm like most folks here: I don't really care, I dress for comfort.

If I had to judge my wardrobe, I guess it would be mixed, closer to urban, with occasional formal thrown in for work and events (and when I'm in a James Bond type of mood).

Besides, just because we don't care what we wear doesn't mean we still don't look damn sexy anyway. laugh

I'm the casual elegance type. Jeans + white shirt + black jacket type of thing. Or skirt instead of jeans. Yes, I dress to impress, because it's all about first impressions. Besides, I like to feel good and look good. But it's not to say that I'd dress up in something I'm uncomfortable wearing. Common sense FTW.

There, of course, are days when I wear baggy trousers and a hoodie, but that's when I've overslept/forgot to do my laundry/just don't feel like making an effort.

I used to wear kind of a 'punk' clothes, but recently I'm mixing few styles at the same time, but everything goes 'my way', so even at work where I have to wear rather formal clothes I've got a belt with hobnails or hundreds of bracelets smile
and I do care what I wear, however I have to feel comfortable.

I have to wear button down shirts for work but because I'm such a lazy bastard my work clothes also act as my casual clothing.

But usually if I'm not dressed business casual I'm pretty laid back with cargo pants and a sweatshirt or T-shirt. Normally what you might wear if you decide to go hiking.
