Long story short, I managed to find a way to spill something on my ****ing suit pants. I only own one suit, and I probably will need one for tomorrow, but I'm not certain. The way I see it, I have two options: Either I can go to a dry cleaner in the morning and pay them a ton of money to have it done later that day. Or, I can wear the rest of the suit (which has minimal stainage) and a pair of khaki pants. The jacket is navy, tie is red, shirt is white. Not quite sure what my best option is here. I'm a student so I don't have a ton of money, nor do I have the know-how or skill to clean the pants myself. If it wasn't so prominent I'd let it slide, but it looks like I pissed myself. Please help.
Haha, no. Actually really stupid, I took my dinner from a waitress, and some sauce slid off the plate, bounced off the edge of the table, and landed right where my napkin wasn't. It was really quite remarkable to watch actually.
I would generally avoid wearing a suit jacket as a blazer, the cut just isn't right and if it's patterned it'll definitely be noticeable that your outfit is mismatched. That said, it depends on what you're dressing for; if you're trying to make an impression (job interview, for example), I'd say bite the bullet and go to the cleaner. But if it doesn't really matter how sharp you look, just that you you look somewhat professional, go for it.
It's a fraternity pledge. I put it on to see what it would look like, and it doesn't look terrible, but it might appear mismatched as you said. I'm going to have to go to the cleaner eventually, the issue is it being ready in time for tomorrow night (plus I've got an all-day event for a club, so the timing would be tight.)
well, hopefully your pledge trainers have told you the appropriate attire, but during my pledgeship a sport coat and khakis sufficed for just about everything except for initiation, where we had to wear a tux. I would talk to your pledge brothers or pledge trainer/brothers in the fraternity to get a sense of what to wear. Good luck!
