    Yoox Canada -- Serious problem

    Looks like I am not the only one that is not going to buy anything from YOOX ever again. They are charging over 40% for delivery/taxes. Wanted to buy a nice pair of shoes for 350$ but cancelled the order when I saw the 150$ charge for delivery/taxes. The HST is only 13% so, it should be around...

    What do you guys thinking of wearing Runway style on the street?

    No. Haute Couture are just concept. CONCEPT. Even some Ready-to-wear are not made to be worn all together. You can wear some of the pieces but, you will need to tone it down with "regular" pieces.

    Burberry Trench Bespoke - but not the price?

    hum... I don't know. There is not much choices in Canada except to go to Holt or Harry to get Burberry. From personal experiences, Burberry London trench coats has some weird measures depending on the model and where it was made. You might be better off trying it on first before buying. As for...

    Pulling at chest normal for shirt with button down dollar?

    You can just not button the top two and it would probably fix the problem.

    Navy Suit too dark for brown shoes?

    Those are technically dark burgundy. With a Navy suit, you can go black or dark brown shoes. If you want to stand out and he a hipster, you will have to go with brown/cognac shoes. Still, it deepens on your suit. How dark is the Navy blue of the suit? If your suit is like Light Navy Blue and...

    Are these shoes too much?

    I don't really like the design of the shoes but, if it is what you are looking for... I would recommend looking into Cole Haan and ECCO. They should carry similar design for affordable price.

    Do you think the baby boomers are the worst dressed generation?

    I think it is best to judge fashion by looking at a specific time period instead of a generation. I really like the Art Deco period (1930 to late 1940) was a great era for fashion. You have some of the more conservative look but, it is sharp and edgy at the time. After that, you have the...

    Suit length too short?

    For me, a jacket length depends on your upper body and lower body proportion. Also, it depends on the design (one button, 2 buttons, single vent, double vents, etc...) and how wide you are. I don't believe in a standard rule for everyone since not a single person has the same body type.

    Michael Kors "Michael" Line....

    Not really. It is the mid range one. You have Kors by Michael Kors which has horrendous quality and design. Michael by Michael Kors is the mid range one. They have nice design for clothing and accessories but, the quality of the materials and the sewing is absolutely inconsistent. The final and...

    Suit for $600-$800

    If you like slim fit, I would recommend Hugo Boss Red Label or Z Zegna. You can get them within the price range that you desire. They can be quite cheap when they are on sale and most big name stores will offer free alterations for those suits (hence saving you a trip to the tailor). You can...

    Gucci vs Prada suit ?

    Both of the brand are cut slim and form fitting. Gucci is cut slimmer. Usually a size 40-42 Gucci can fit someone that usually wear size 38. For quality, from my personal experience, they are quite equal but, Gucci is a lot more expensive than Prada. The main reason for that is Gucci made quite...

    Brazil in winter--can I wear linen

    Last I check, linen is made for summer since it is a light and breathable material. You might want to have some rain clothing since winter = rain. A lot of rains and it is pretty chill at night.

    Are Burberry coats worth the money?

    The model is pretty much your typical Burberry Trench coat. Burberry was a very good brand for coats. Now, they are made in Thailand and Macau. Only the Burberry Prorsum line and a few selected pieces of Burberry London are made in Italy and UK. Also, in the old days, all Burberry coats were...

    Shorts Have Men Showing a Little Leg

    For the entire summer. I have been running 10K followed by a 20K biking 4 times per week so, my legs are pretty slim. Been Asian, I get the yellow/brown tan pretty fast and, of course, hairless legs.
