@Morgan John Thanks John. I should have clarified I meant as an outerwear piece that I'd wear to / from the office while I'm outside in cold weather.

My personal opinion: yes, you can be over-dressed, and doing so is almost as bad, although not as bad, as being under-dressed. I think being over-dressed makes you look like you try too hard. It can also make others in the group experience their own insecurities at dressing poorly, which, to be fair, is on them, but is also something as a good gentleman you probably don't want to do. So what I always aim for is the nicest garments within the confines of whatever the socially determined dress for the occasion is, or possibly +1 level of formality above that. So, based on this picture where everyone is in jeans, sneakers and t-shirts, I would say: level up the sneakers with a pair of nice boots, level up the jeans with a pair of chinos, level up the t-shirt with a button-down and a quarter zip; but, leave the jacket out.

I think the budget is going to be the issue unfortunately. Given the price point, thrifting would be the way to go, but of course that doesn’t help you much. I often use feet warmers but those can get expensive for daily wear. Sorry I am not of more help/

I understand the business case from Antonio’s perspective. Early in my style journey, I would have paid the fee because this channel was very helpful to me. Now that I feel more confident, I find less personal value. I enjoy answering others questions, but I don’t see that as an activity I’d pay for. I wish Antonio the best and finding a new revenue stream for his business. I have no hard feelings for the change - business is business. I will miss having a source of engagement that isn’t social media. But, I don’t plan on paying.

I’ve done this 2 ways: 1. Find someone who does family pixtures and then have the do some headshots as part of the package. Bonus is that you’ll get great pictures of the family (which scored me brownie points with the Mrs). I found there’s a lot of people who do this. 2. See if your local community college has a photography course. Mine did. I emailed the teacher and got connected with a student.
