I know I can nail the technical questions but I'm worried that i look sleazy.

The additional context wasn't necessary but I wanted to see how the photo posts are formatted for lemmy

Appropriate attire I think. Make sure to leave the top button undone unless you wear a tie. If you're planning on wearing dress shoes you may want to switch to slacks over jeans (if they are jeans, if they're just a slightly more casual pant ignore this), but don't think that's a hard and fast rule or anything, you can still wear dress shoes with jeans if you don't have an in between type of shoe. Your dress socks and shoe color should match your belt, but again there are exceptions to any "rule" of fashion, just keeps it easy tho if you're unsure.

The shirt may be a tad big on you, I'd suggest tucking it in a little tighter unless you have time to get it tailored (just go to a dry cleaner, cheap and usually a few days to turn around, shouldn't be more than like $15ish depending on your area).

I have no idea of your hygiene but as others have said make sure you aren't giving off anything off putting. Deodorant, brush teeth obvi, maybe a small spritz of a light cologne (one spray, no more, spray in the air in front of you and walk under it).
