Contest: Are you Canada's most stylish? (this is not a joke)

[Bandwagonesque]

If there's anyone here who feels they're stylish enough, G&M is running a contest where you can win a $5K shopping spree in Toronto. Before any Americans consider trying to acquire Canadian citizenship and pwn our contests, that's like $10 US... so don't bother.

I most definitely am not, by any definition you would care to choose ...

The judges do not fill me with confidence that they won't end up choosing the same type of AmJacks that GQ (or was it Esquire?) proclaimed to be America's best dressed men a while ago.

That said, I will enter for the heck of it.

Easy for some here to enter though, as there are a tonne of WAYWT pics already.

I do not think I am the most stylish, but as noted, I have a bad feeling I will be more stylish than the winner.

Problem with something like this is style I think is within' you and an accompaniment to your personality. This said, I think people need to know you too to judge this. Hope this makes sense.

Also, I think many people fall into thinking that being stylish is following mainstream trends. I think it is the opposite of this, and finding meaning and a sense of self in the clothes and an accompaniment to how you project yourself for others to perceive you.

That would be CanJacks, then, eh?

Being a foreigner to your land, could one of you Canucks explain the rules of the contest to me? Is it true that you have to submit two photos of your fit, one in english and the other in french?

The judges really seem to like Prada, which is unsurprising. I notice every time I go home that my fellow Canadians seem to go for a rather austere cuts and subdued palettes with military influences.
