GOOD 4 U! You'll look quite handsome

I have several catalogs I and you can find shtuff you don't see in the stores which is nice & some are spendy some are cheap so fun
My favorite jumping off point for finding cool stuff (clothes and other stuff) is Uncrate.com. They led me to Bonobos and Nau. The shoes...I found them after my exhausting (nearly a year) search for a pair that spoke to me in terms of style, color and texture. I love the "nubbed" texture of these shoes...and they dress both up and down.

The hat...sort of stumbled on that because of Nordstrom and looking for alternatives to Kangol for timeless style. Looking for something other than a ballcap to wear...

Jackets/coats...well...moved here without really bringing any. Thought I'd be settled and have the rest of my stuff here by now. No such luck...but it seems to be working out.

I usually take my fashon consultant (girlfriend) with me when I shop for clothes because sometimes I need someone to say, "Are you serious? You actually think that looks good?"

I think women dress for both...to attract males and to make their friends jealous. Guys also tend to live/work in venues that are more conservative, so there's only so many blue suits or slacks and sportcoats you can sell. In terms of casual style...there's an interesting range...most of which I find tacky...
