Your shoes are a no no. Never put "fat" shoes with slimmer jeans, it looks ridiculous.
Funny you should mention this since this is a trend in Korea
I'm pretty clueless about fashion but I can tell when something just looks wrong. This so called 'Big Bang Look' is everywhere, especially popular among highschoolers and guys in their early 20s. I even feel embarassed on their behalf, really.
What High schoolers wear =/= Fashion
Regardless of country.
HOW TO DRESS AS A BAD ASIAN (ie Twinkies)Multicolored Popped Collars
White Button Up Shirts + Carpenter Jeans
Gay Baseball Hat
Shoes with Rounded Fat Edges
Anything from American Eagle/Abercombie
Short Frat Hair with 50 pounds of Hair Gel (who uses gel these days? jeezes)
Typical Twinkie AsiansI'm serious. If you see any asian wearing the following you should go slap them in the face and tell them how stupid they look.
Well enough ranting, let me tell you an easy way to 'lie' that you're a good dresser.
1. Buy a grey cardigan. Don't get those gay cardigans with stupid drawings on them, get a plain, NORMAL BUTTON UP (NOT ZIPUP, ZIPUP CARDIGANS MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE A 12 YEAR OLD) CARDIGAN.
Doesn't matter who you are, a grey cardigan will always make a person look a bit more classy than usual. Don't go digging around your grandparent's closet for a grey cardigan, go to some decent mall (preferably a mall with a brand BETTER than AE) and get one.
Cardigans are kinda expensive but they do look nice. Not to mention they are worth it
2. Now go buy a clean white button up shirt, or a white turtleneck. Preferably something you can wear even if you take your cardigan away.
One of the biggest rules of buying clothes that many people keep making mistakes with is before buying, always think
"HMM HOW DOES THIS [INSERT CLOTHE] FIT WITH MY OTHER STUFF IN THE CLOSET"
Don't get some weird Paris 2010 Fall Collection White Shirt that you will never wear, get something you can casually wear at any occasion.
3. Get a decent belt. Doesn't matter which brand, just get some kind of witty belt. Doesn't matter if there is a huge Paper Mario stuck to the buckle or picture of bob marely, just something that stands out.
Things to avoid: Stuff that says in huge letters "ABERCOMBIE" or "AMERICAN EAGLE" or "GUESS"
Your goal is to prevent those brands as much as possible.
4. Black Skinny Jeans is my personal fav here, but eh who knows. Any kind of slim/skinny are fine here, but that doesn't mean other jeans won't fit. Don't be dumb and wear baggy jeans. It isn't 1990 anymore.
5. Get some casual shoes. If you really don't have any casual shoes, get some converse chuck's for $25 or something. Yeah those $25 chucks are kinda bad but hey your call.
6. Your hair. Believe it or not, your hair plays a HUEG part of dressing up.
I have no idea what your hair style is like so I guess no comment. But don't cut it too short.
So in Short
Get some
Button Up Cardigans
