More calculated that it looks. For work I have to wear a jacket and tie, but if I'm too smart then people will not expect me to know about technical subjects -- I'd look too much like an admin type angling for promotion. So the tie has to be just a /bit/ faded, the jacket just a /bit/ crumpled; not so much that I look scruffy, but enough to look as if I'm not really trying, as if I'm not really that bothered.

Casual is more difficult, because I don't know what I am trying to achieve. I can be so many different people that the attempt to project all of them probably ends up rather confused. Probably the most obvious thing about my clothes is that I've lost weight so most of them are baggy on me. Am I too old to pull off a hip-hop style?
