Hey guys, a quick question here for the people who might know:

I see some great collar rolls on the dress shirts here, but mine are always flat. What makes a good collar roll? Is it a stiff collar or a soft collar? Am I just ironing it wrong? Help!

I know the beard is your thing so i'll leave that alone, but that is another point of incongruency (is that a word) in your whole schema.

Soft collar. Also, try ironing your collars like this:

@MBreinin: I see what Nii's saying about being top-heavy. Have you ever taken a jacket in for shoulder surgery? If so, post before & after pics to see what the consensus is, before taking this one in...on second thought, it looks terrible on you - send it to me

@NYR: the silhouette shots are menacing. I like it. The SC and trou fit & look well together - do you have a solid brown or blue tie? I'd love to see how either color looks with today's ensemble.
@Spoozy: Is something up with your tie knot, or is it just the angle of the shot?

@Nii: great windowpane, but - is that a Budweiser?
