    Vans checkerboard slip-ons

    I've just picked up a pair of classic Vans checkerboard slip-ons for the coming summer.  I hadn't thought to get much use out of them, other than beachwear and the like.  To complete the laid-back, 80's So-Cal, chilled-out, Spicoli-esque vibe, I'll be pairing it with a few pairs of Op Classic...

    Wedding attire recommendation wanted

    I would go with a very simple, yet timeless, elegant, andsupremely stylish alternative, reminiscent of old Hollywood types (read: Gary Cooper, Cary Grant).  With that suit, at that occasion, I would go with: - white, spread collar, french-cuff shirt - simple cufflinks (thinking of my own...

    Example by missoni

    An Example by Missoni suit was the very first I bought when I graduated law school a few years ago. Frankly, I was disappointed. Boxier than I'd hoped, with mediocre fabric and tailoring. I'd be curious to hear how yours turns out, Bjorn.

    Senior prom

    I think those shoes are perfectly acceptable with suit or tux, particularly given the applicable age group we're dealing with. I think that style -- including the square toe, which I think lends a nice edge -- is far more likely to be viewed as cool and stylish in this context than most others...

    Stu:  How is the cut, as compared to other makers?  Slim, full, boxy,tapered, etc.?

    Undershirts?

    Droopy necks on t-shirts and undershirts are a pet peeve of mine. My favorite brand in this regard is 2(x)ist. For only slightly more than the Hanes/Jockey types, I think 2(x)ist offers the softest cotton and best fit out there (short of the truly upscale and incredibly expensive, like...

    Bluefly code

    Hi, all.  I've put together a decent list of potential purchases in my shopping cart on Bluefly, only to find my promotional/discount code has just expired (as always, my procrastination gets me in trouble). Does anyone have a discount code they'd like to share?  Thanks in advance.

    HOF: What look would you like to see stopped?

    At the risk of offending at least several of the Forum members -- tasseled shoes, worn with suits. In my profession (attorney), they're the default/fallback shoe for virtually every unstylish, usually middle-aged or older-lawyer around.   I have yet to see a pair worthy of wearing with suits...

    Messenger bags

    I'd recommend a sturdy canvas number from Jack Spade.  Not terriby expensive, a nice blend of style and rugged durability, and perfectly cool in any number of instances.  Mine's tan with black trim and strap. I've carried my personal effects in my Jack Spade all over Italy, Spain, and a bunch...

    Flared jeans

    I'm generally a proponent of slimmer-fitting jeans.  Not so tight that you have to grease up to squeeze out of them, but fairly tailored, with relatively little flare at the bottom - the kind of jeans that an Italian guy would wear with a crisp white button-down open at the collar, and a sleek...

    Cerruti

    Can anyone comment as to suits by Cerruti, a maker whose garb I have yet to try? I've spotted a sharp, pinstripe number on Bluefly, and was wondering what those on the forum think of the quality and workmanship. I'm particularly interested in the fit/silhouette - slim? boxy? Any other makers to...

    Mezlan shoes

    I'd love to hear the forum's opinion on Mezlan shoes.  At a glance, they seem like a very stylish, well-crafted alternative at a great price point (generally less than $200 per from what I've seen).  Any thoughts/opinions?  Any good or bad experience(s) with them?  I'm contemplating...
