    AE Hale in chili

     chili shows the character of the leather much better than burgundy, imo.

    Anyone familiar with J David's in Santa Clarita?

    Recently stumbled across them; they apparently do a bunch of custom tailoring for athletes and such - anyone ever have anything made there?

    BB Semi-Annual Sale - Not that great...

    For the discussion for slim fit shirts, I'm pretty athletic (swim and run a lot, lift once in a while) but not bulky and find even their extra-slim fit shirts not that "slim fit." I don't find the extra slim shirts to be the right shape for someone athletic- too constricting around the chest...

    Motorcycle gear

    What do you think makes you "look like an idiot"? that's kind of vague. There's essentially no riding gear that offers real protection that you'll want to wear over a suit. My priorities in protection are helmet (always), gloves (always), boots and jacket (almost always), then pants. Putting...

    What is Inappropriate Job Interview Attire

    All the Big4s will say it's business casual, but you would be hard-pressed to find a single interview candidate in business casual. Ditto for banking, law, or consulting. Just wear a conservative suit and tie -- if you feel overdressed, you can always take off the jacket and tie. I've rarely...

    Stubborn tailor...what should I do?

    PROTIP: If your belt buckle is pointing toward the ground, you need to pull your pants up, *****. Use suspenders if you have to. For many people, the waistband slant isn't because of being fat per se, or having the pants in the wrong place - it's because their WAIST is at a slant due to weak...

    Why are you so dressed up?

    Do you get asked this question a lot? I seem to get it every few weeks. Even though our office has a dress code that requires shirt and tie for the men, people tend to comment on my attire more than others. i got it a lot when i first started dressing nicer at work, then it tapers down and...

    Wearing a suit with suspenders to a nightclub

    I have two degrees and I work. well... To be entirely honest with you, even though I am still technically a student until I get my masters diploma in December (I don't actually study anymore, Im just waiting to graduate) I already work with my family, and for the most part, the money I spend...

    Wearing a suit with suspenders to a nightclub

    ... Anyway, I wore a 2-piece single-breasted navy suit last night, light blue spread collar shirt, and a blue tie. Complemented it with a nice pocket square, and obviously the braces. I tried to make the outfit look as less "businessy" as possible by wearing a rather "funky" Tom Ford tie and a...

    Wearing a suit with suspenders to a nightclub

    Try getting into the Edison on Saturday night with "jeans and kicks" and let me know how that works out for you The Edison isn't what I would consider a 'club'- more of a 'lounge.' Lounges are indeed much more likely to enforce a dress code.

    Wearing a suit with suspenders to a nightclub

    Anyone that speaks of only wearing "jeans and kicks" has a very limited knowledge of the various types of night clubs individuals can attend in real cities. Many upscale night clubs in LA and NYC have dress codes and if you are wearing "kicks" you will not get in. Even if you think you are a...

    Wearing a suit with suspenders to a nightclub

    I see this thread has gotten out of hand quite quickly... Dude, I don't think you understand- my "why the f' you asking" was specifically to your "Amen" to a "do what you want" post. It's obvious that you want to wear the suspenders, so why the f' you asking here about what people think, then...

    Allen Edmonds Bayfield boot- any experiences?

    Thanks for the pics scooby... they look great! I'm thinking of getting them in black and wearing them with my suits. Question- how comfortable are they? Are they fairly flexible and easy to walk in? I assume with the rubber sole they don't clank and slap like other dress shoes, which I think...

    Need help dressing for a wedding.

    The dress code is "Semi-Formal," it's indoor and outdoor. The families are pretty rich. ... Would it be acceptable to wear nice suit pants, shirt, tie and shoes but no jacket? Would it be insulting? Is it too casual? I think you'd be ok without a jacket (but better with one, preferably a dark...

    7 spending tips from Frugal Billionaires

    IIRC most of the BMWs sold in Europe are 320D. It's basically an economy company car. The pricing is set so it gets a full tax write off. It uses almost no fuel (The latest version is almost 70mpg combined. Even higher highway) If you keep it the normal 1 to 2 years it's only a couple of oil...
