    What kind of shirt is this?

    I think I found it. It's a "Popover". Just got an email promotion from J Crew selling this style of shirt.

    What kind of shirt is this?

    If you've ever seen the episode of Miami Vice (No. 7: No Exit), it's cut pretty loose, and although it sort of looks like a polo shirt, it's cut a little different. I was wondering if there is a particular name for this style of shirt...

    How can I get some kind of dating life going?

     That's some nice editing. You should be in journalism. Go *************.

    How can I get some kind of dating life going?

    It was also a confidence boost to compare myself with the other guys at this event. By contrast, I feel I was more approachable and comfortable in this situation. There was one guy there who apparently has been to many of these events, and been rejected by one of the girls there. He was telling...

    How can I get some kind of dating life going?

    So the cooking thing turned out not to be a cooking class per se, but a singles mixer hosted at a commerical kitchen, with some cooking demos by an executive chef, cocktails, games (blind taste tests), etc. There was absolutely no risk of appearing "husbandish" at this thing. :) I met a few...

    How can I get some kind of dating life going?

     Hi, JrMouse. Yup, in Austin. I know lots of places. It's impossible not to walk or drive past bars and other nightlife on my way to work everyday. As the other posters suggested I don't really have friends that I regularly go out with, and I don't want to go to bars alone. That's why I'm...

    How can I get some kind of dating life going?

     I need to get to the point where this is an issue to worry about. It's a decision point I haven't reached in years.

    APC New Standard: How do they fit me?

     I'm about 5'6", but I have disproportionately short legs. I don't know what the inseam is. I'm thinking 34 inches? I normally get my pants hemmed to about 28". That explains why the cuff is so big.

    APC New Standard: How do they fit me?

    Would you: 1) Cuff them on the inside 2) Cuff on the outside (given how much extra fabric there is and my short legs, this doesn't seem like a good option) 3) Hem them, with some allowance for shrinkage ?

    APC New Standard: How do they fit me?

    They feel tight. But I can see what you're saying from the pictures - there is a little extra room in the legs.

    APC New Standard: How do they fit me?

    I'm used to wearing baggy jeans that I have to hold up with a belt, so this would be a change for me.

    APC New Standard: How do they fit me?

    At the risk of embarassing myself by starting yet another "how does this fit?" thread, I bought my first real pair of raw denim, APC New Standard. Does it look OK? They're definitely way too long. I'm not sure if I will get them hemmed or cuff them. I feel that any "skinny" jeans make me look...

    How can I get some kind of dating life going?

     There's a wine meetup I've been meaning to go to. There's really tons of meetups going on in this city; I just need to take advantage of it all. That reminds me.... Whole Foods is offering a cooking class, too. They also have a weekly wine and beer tasting, and my new job is literally...
