You just spent $800 on an Hermes ''H'' belt.

Holy shit, and I was feeling remorseful for buying a shirt with french cuffs as a first year analyst in a BO role.

I mean.. you should.

Go buy a Gucci belt with a giant G on it now so you can alternate belts during the week.

Also a LV print belt like the rap stars wear.

Please make sure you protrude your pelvis so all of senior management can see your fresh style.

Optional: DG shades and a matching LV logo beanie/scarf. No jacket needed. LV logo beanie/scarf able to be worn in the summer. Versace tie with a giant face on it also optional.

If you do all of this it seems likely that your managers will see your style.

+1. Don't forget the gaudiest pair of Prada loafers to round it off.

This whole thread is classic WSO...
