Welcome Daniel. Do you think you'll be able to post 87 times per day? You have big shoes to fill.

Hi everyone, I'm from Canada, Eastern Ontario to be exact along the shores of the St. Lawrence River. I've worked pharmaceutical research for countless years and now spending time as an environmental biologist for a local consulting company. I traded my Gucci's for workboots. I signed up to the site because of Saddleback Leather. The stuff is addictive.
Cheers

Hi, My design "fondness" has always being biased toward Italian mens styling and general design since working within the Italian leather industry. It all started with a pair of Tods...... I'm very new to the forum but looking forward to being more involved.

Hello everyone

I'm the first to admit I don't know a thing about fashion, and I'm not too sure about style either, but I have a fondness for practical garments to cope with the weather here on the shores of the North Sea. I like chunky sweaters and over the years have built up a decent collection of traditional knitwear from along this coast, stretching from Norway and the Faroe Isles to Guernsey.

In terms of personal style I suppose 'outdoorsy' and 'British' would fit the bill, while trying to keep things original. Tweed cap, waxed jacket and fisherman's sweater is the usual look, together with Levi's jeans and Blundstone boots. I'm 40 years old, smoke a pipe, and ride a motorcycle.

Likes: thick sweaters, Harris Tweed, Barbour jackets, hats, and clothes that last at least a couple of decades. Dislikes: chain stores, polyester, shoddy quality and shoes you can't walk in.

Hello everyone. I'm Tony Green, founder of Charity Link Foundation of Dallas, Texas.

We have started a Consignment Boutique in the Highland Park area of Dallas benefiting local charities. We are not to be confused with a thrift store. We are a boutique selling only upscale designer clothing (for women too), accessories, furniture, antiques, artwork, and collectables.

Merchandise is priced for fair market value which far exceeds a thrift store's capability. Thrift stores rarely consider the difference between Kiton & Joseph A Bank.

For the past 14yrs. I've made a living traveling around the US buying up designer merchandise from thrift stores and reselling it at home and online.

I’ve not once been to a thrift store that knew how to price designer merchandise. People like me buy from thrift stores and profit 10X to 100X or more. Clearly the majority of the money goes to the resellers not the charity. I'm hoping to change that in Dallas.

Charity Link Foundation's goal is to increase funding for important causes in order to expand their outreach.

Donors may choose any charity they wish to benefit. We are providing the expertise, fronting all expenses, providing locations, pickup services, staffing, and assuming all risks and liabilities.

Unlike donating to thrift stores and we don't simply issue you an estimated value on your donations. Without proper documentation you run the risk of an IRS audit. Charity Link Foundation prices things for what they are worth and for that, the donor gets a better credit. There are actually limits to how much you can claim each year donating to thrift stores. This particularly applies to clothing. The IRS doesn’t recognize the difference between a cashmere sweater from Neiman Marcus and a wool sweater from Target. The examples I provided you with would all be over the individual limit you can claim. With Charity Link Foundation, your donations will be tallied up and classified as a cash contribution directly to your charity. We will supply you with all the documentation to verify your deductions.

So in closing, if you've hung on this long, I'm proud to be a part of styleforum.net and I'm hoping to become a sponsor soon. Charity Link Foundation is looking forward to being a part of the community. I am always available to chat with you.

All the best,

-Tony

Howdy, my name is Chris.

I am joining style forum to learn and share knowledge about all things wearable. My main interest product design and not fashion, so I focus less on brand names and more on quality. I am a freelance photographer and graphic designer for magazines, newspapers, and event coverage. One night a week I have a radio show and I play chill-out / lounge / groove / bachelor pad music and talk about style.

Things I love:
Traveling
Eating
Skinny girls
Thrift shopping
Bourbon

Things I hate:
Yardwork
Humidity
Soda
Mathematics
Closed-minds

Another lurker here, crossing the line!

I'm from New York, but I live in London now. I'm into style more than fashion. I'm getting married in November, so my finances are on lockdown - which means I'll be doing more chatting and obsessing over cool **** rather than buying and selling.

My wardrobe is severe and simplistic - all black, white and grey (with a bit of navy to mix it up). Far too much of it consists of Uniqlo basics these days.

I like to keep my **** clean and I admire the work of Helmut Lang, Jil Sander, Hedi Slimane, Rick Owens and Raf Simons.

I find it hard to buy shoes. I don't really like raw denim anymore.

If I have a "fashion flaw" it's that I tend to over-wash my clothes (I'm a bit OCD).

And that's me done. Over to you!

Hello all, I have been following the Style Forum for quite some time. I have always used it as a place to read opinions about products. Over the past year I have been learning a lot about shoes as I am interested in learning how to make them.
I also have been leaning a great deal about suit construction so that I truly tell what is a good suit and what is not.
I look forward to now being a contributor to this site.
