    1950's Esquire article on "White Shoe" students

    http://www.ivy-style.com/russell-lynes-on-the-shoe-hierarchy-esquire-1953.html I always wondered about the origin of the term, but I assumed it was because the shoes were shiny white.

    Going to Europe

    Anyway, I had a blast. Prague was amazing, and the Yellow Bar in Rome is a great way to meet other travelers. Went to the Tour De France and got a visitor's pass to see the busses and saw the Normandy beaches. In Holland, 's-HertogenBosh has a cool set of canals that goes under the city...

    good travel shoes

    so, in Rome and Tourino, the natives pointed out that tourists are identifiable by their sneakers. Since I have been wearing sperry's, i haven't been as obvious, and many have told me so, but they are hell on my feet. I have horrible blisters on my big toe on my left foot. So, i figured I...

    Help me with my fedora problems!

    I have a hat. But what I have discovered is that, sometimes, what works in the style world isn't necessarily 'normal' in the real world. What are the best ways to get around this?

    Anybody have any recommendations on plain oxfords that won't break the bank? I really like the John Varvatos Dress Oxfords. I want something that's fairly stylish: no square toes, slightly low and round. Any suggestions? I'd like to second this, or something like it. I need a good pair of...

    How many suits is enough?

    lol. What do you think of my wardrobe GBR? I would think that shows my genuine interest? It would be ironic if you were the one trolling this post. But, in all seriousness, I'm trimming the grey suit and gonna look for a navy blue one that I can afford.

    How many suits is enough?

    Thank you all. I've already taken notes, and I"m gonna start planning to get what I need. As it is, I have like five pairs of black pants because I thought they worked with my three-button black Macy's blazer. They don't. What can I wear the black pants with(i.e. does it need a blazer?) and...

    Going to Europe

    Hey Guys, I'm gonna be in the Netherlands, but I figured that getting around Europe with the Railpass was easy. My fear is that law firms will think I didn't take this summer seriously, so my goal is to find something to do. I've heard that law firms in England do two-week deals. Is this true?
