    Ask A Question, Get An Answer... - Post All Quick Questions Here (Classic menswear)

    While it's true that a button stance that is too low as a product of a suit that is too large just looks bad, the only downside of a low button stance on a well-fitting jacket is that it may bring undue attention to your monumental cajones.

    Let's Talk About Replica Watches...

    I'm late to the game here, but I was just having this discussion with my Dad. My argument that if you care that much about what people think about you, use the few hundred you would have spent on a fake watch on something quality Ray-Ban or Persol sunglasses. He is willing to bet that even if...

    Ask A Question, Get An Answer... - Post All Quick Questions Here (Classic menswear)

    A lower button stance makes you look taller, leaner, and smarter. Wear your buttons too high and risk looking like a waiter. Waiters don't get laid as much as you think.

    Inexpensive tuxedo advice

    Also, in my experience with two of them, prom is not necessarily a place where anyone is going to recognize how fly you look (even when you do). The cheerleaders are still going to go for the football/basketball/baseball players despite the fact that they are wearing white tuxedoes far above the...

    Inexpensive tuxedo advice

    I just had my Senior Prom, this is the best picture I find that shows the look I was going for. (I couldn't find a good picture that got the ray-bans, lapels, pocket square, tie, pants, and sleeves together... this is a compromise) I rented my tux from Men's Wearhouse and got this...

    Pastel colors

    Same reason you don't wear white after Labor Day: because it's the "rules". However, I say if it looks good, wear it!

    Need Advice: Minimalistic Style

    One of my favorite outfits is a black bottom-down collar oxford shirt that I got for American Apparel, some really light sand Levi's 501's, and either black or grey Sperry Top Siders. If the man wants you to wear dress shoes, throw him a curveball and get some black wingtips from Cole Haan in...

    Tailoring Tips for a Teenager

    I think there's enough material for for cuffs on the pants that have been hemmed already. There is a good 2 1/2 inches of fabric inside the leg under the hem and each pair of pants is at least an inch too long. I'm hearing to forego the no break option on the flat-fronts, which is probably smart...

    Tailoring Tips for a Teenager

    Thanks for the advice! I think I'll go with no break on the black suit, and cuffs with a little break on the other two. I'll post pictures when all is said and done.

    Stylish past and present morning show hosts

    One might not call Anderson a "morning show" per se, but Cooper really steps out of his regular dark suit/dark tie/white shirt ensemble on his new talk show.

    Tailoring Tips for a Teenager

    I'm new to all this, so bear with me here... I'm 18 and headed off to college and internships and all of that nonsense. I have three slim-fit suits that I have acquired through high school. One is black with flat fronts and a peak lapel, the others I got for free through Men's Wearhouse. The...
