Well I had to protect his identity, he is a flat haired golden retriever, ultimate case of the blonde bimbo, all looks, no brains. Lovely dog though. I have no idea what they meant by this, maybe Grimslade can clear it up for us? Vox said it wasn't a good or a bad thing, so I am not too worried, I am sure they would have said if it was something serios. They are all sad enough to have posted thousands of times - they must have at least a few in jokes to show for it. Maybe when we are as cool/sad we get to find out. Your evolution was pretty good, you look much better now than then. Although I admit I was disappointed you are not a hot blonde in a see through top.

And, finally, the most recent - March 2009

This is my own personal favorite look of all time for me. I think the colors are flattering, the arrangement is pretty nice, and everything seems to (to my eye) work together.


This is a great look. What type of jacket is that?!?

Thanks.

It's a Brunello Cucinelli.

Do you have any pictures wearing the jacket standing up? Where did you pick it up if you do not mind me asking? I might even think about paying retail on something similar... I have always just passed over Cucinelli items in buying & selling but I guess I am going to have to rethink that...

I'll try to find a pic at home (at work now).

It was under $10 in a thrift store, believe it or not.

I really like the positioning of the buttons on it. That is one amazing deal. If you ever get tired of it and want to make a good profit let me know...

I believe GS gets ribbed for clutter.

I doubt I'd ever sell it.

I also am worshipping that jacket, what is the fabric? is it flannel? I want to acquire something similar, although perhaps a little more casual.

It's 100% virgin wool, according to the tag. It feels soft.

Thank you - like I said, I'm not nearly there, still making progress. I need to keep things simple.

Ah, the Grimslade point is finally cleared up. Yes, my room is usually a bit cluttered. I clean it every two weeks around laundry time then let it deteriorate for the remainder of the period.

YOU'RE disappointed? Imagine waking up and looking in the bathroom mirror only to realize anew every morning that I'm not a hot blonde standing topless. It pisses me off to no end.

I imagine you face a similar predicament, eh?

Please feel welcome to post your own Sartorial Evolution.

I can't really tell what color your trousers are, could you please tell me?

Thank you.
