    Best places to buy online

    Question: Where, besides eBay, are some good sites to buy higher end clothing (Prada, Gucci, Dior, etc.) online? I've seen quite a few, but any good suggestions - or warnings, would be appreciated.

    Best shampoo

    Aveda - excellent products, excellent scents too. Origins - very good. You will notice the difference quickly. Kiehls - quality, good for most hair types. www.kiehls.com I would avoid Redken.

    Shopping in rome

    I just returned from a trip to Northern Italy: Venice, Florence, Sienna and Pisa. It's beautiful there, with a million things to do and see, so I'll skip the tour guide info and address your question about shopping. Rome will have no end of fashionable stores and botiques and you can easily blow...

    A custom-made clothing site...

    I agree that the site looks good, but I have to admit that I'm a bit puzzled by the "Western Jackets" section. What's that about?

    When to dryclean?

    I know that most in here already do this, or know about it, but when undressing at the end of a day, all clothes that are not going to the laundry (i.e. - suit, pants, shoes) should be allowed to air out - outside the closet, overnight. The body emits a large amount of moisture throughout the...

    Pants

    Double pleated/inward: traditional, British, classic. Double pleated/outward: traditional, more commonly seen. Single pleat - inward or outward: Cleaner, more modern. Plain front: Ivy league or contemporary, cleaner lines. Sidenote: If you are overweight or fat, don't wear pleats. They make...

    Italy - what are people wearing?

    Question for the members: Going to Venice/Florence/Sienna in a week.  Will be spending all my time hanging out - no business attire.  I'm wondering if any members know what most people are wearing there these days.   Anyone been there in the past year and noticed what a decent outfit would...

    Classical vs funky

    Funky. Â Unfortunate word, but I understand what you are saying. Personally, I feel confident in saying that I have a refined, very particular sense of style and it is very funky, but it hasn't run astray. Â Most people, men or women, who try to dress funky end up looking like morons. Â That's...

    Urinals/toilets and nice shoes don't go together

    Try using a catheter. You can piss anywhere, anytime and as long as the tube doesn't leak, your shoes won't get wet.

    Need overall wardrobe help!

    Make sure you dress for your body type. You sound like a big guy, so don't wear things like low rise jeans or clothes made for skinny guys (think Hedi Slimane/Dior Homme). To be frank, Energie jeans are cut almost exclusively for thin to medium built men so you may want to rethink them before...

    Corduroy pants

    I've seen the Kenneth Cole cords you are speaking of. They aren't bad at all, and I like the twist. They only seem to look good on skinny guys or, at the very least, not-fat guys.

    What's your favorite mainstream designer?

    I voted, with ease, for Dior with Slimane at the helm. This man really knows how to cut cloth. Especially for us tall skinny guys (I'm 6', 140 lbs). His designs aren't for every body type, but if you can pull them off, they make you look so good. Take for instance the suit he cut for himself for...

    Face moisturizer

    I would suggest using products from The Body Shop. Good quality stuff. There is a slant towards organic materials and it's not as heavy on the use of chemicals and perfume as most cologne related lines are. www.bodyshop.com The recently introduced a heavy-duty moisture cream called "hemp...

    Two questions!

    FYI: As mentioned in one of the responses, genetics are key. Brad Pitt has perfect genes, we all know, and his abs were there even when he was a kid, I'm sure. As good of shape as I'm in, and as lean as I am (virtually no body fat - I'm 6' tall and 140 lbs), my abs don't want to "pop" like I so...
