    Slobs vs Fashion Wrecks: Which group annoys you the most?

    I have a lot of respect for people that don't care about fashion. There are a million and one things in the world to care about, and when it comes to improving our world fashion seems like it belongs low on the list. Because someone doesn't care about fashion doesn't mean that their passions...

    linen suit for job interview?

    Not appropriate, wear wool. Keep it simple.

    the best value shoe(s) you can buy

    Sorry I can't be more helpful, but I'm going to try and head off a number of more hostile responses quickly. 1. I don't think many people in this forum where Stacy Adams shoes, so you'll have a tough time getting input on their typical sizing. 2. Not many on this forum like Stacy Adams or...

    Why do shoes have model names, instead of just captoe, wholecut, etc?

    This is pretty common across the fashion industry. I think in most cases it's to make a product sound special, and to make it seem like something new. The purpose is to convince the consumer of a couple additional reasons to buy something.

    Help! Am I a shoe hoarder?

    Serious answer - it's only hoarding, or only a problem, if it's coming at the expense of something you wish you were able to do. Like if you couldn't afford something important to you, or you're taking space that's badly needed for something else. If there's no problem affording it, and it...

    How tight? Brooks Brothers Black Fleece might work...

    Tie for professional photo / firm website?

    Hard to say since all of the colors are apparently showing up wrong, but the purple is definitely my favorite from what I see. I like that it's much darker than the others and will give nice contrast with your (I assume) white or light blue shirt.

    cartier paris

    I like the first one much better. The second one somehow has too much symmetry to my eye.

    Watch for around 3K

    If I were you I would start the job first, and get a good look around at the kinds of watches and clothing people are wearing. Most of the watches in this thread (in my opinion) run the risk of looking pretty flashy in a management consulting setting both within the firm and definitely with...

    Can someone recommend me button down white shirt?

    There's nothing wrong with a pocket, it just makes the shirt a bit more casual. Considering you plan on wearing it under a sweater, it seems like a pocket would be just fine.

    Looking for the MOST VERSATILE LEATHER SHOE!! Birkenstock London?

    This isn't quite the right place to get opinions on those shoes. Most people here wouldn't consider anything nearly as casual as those as being suitable to wear with slacks in the office, so I would expect a few snarky replies. In any case, I had a pair of them, and they didn't stay on my feet...

    Is it acceptable to wear a button-down oxford with a tie?

    Why else would shirts with button down collars button all the way to the top? I think it looks good, but wouldn't use a larger knot.

    How do I tell my coworker...

    From your description I can only see two possible scenarios here: Scenario 1: If these stains are on all of his shirts, he almost certainly realizes the issue and has chosen to keep wearing the shirts. To inform him that he needs to change up his shirts would be calling into question his...

    Toggle overcoat appropriate to a job interview?

    The jacket may or may not be appropriate, I couldn't say, but you definitely won't look silly if you just wear a suit and bring an umbrella. In terms of logistics, what are you going to do with the big coat once you get there? They're not going to hang it for you, then you'll likely have to...
