Those look like really tiny cuff links in the first photo.

In the photos I've seen he looks good. Quite peacockish, but no more than some of the younger posters on this forum, like woeisme -- I don't see you guys calling him a douche.

His blog says he works in the fashion industry. I wonder if that means he's a "style consultant".

I meant the jackets on the racks. Why not just throw them on the floor and do a little dance on them?

Woe gets away with it, hell, actually looks good in such a style of garments and combinations. Andre3000, likewise.

This guy, whom I actually don't know, since I'm not from "around here" anyway, and for reasons I cannot quite put my hands on, exhales an air of, well maybe not douchebaggery, but certainly a mild Vanilla-Icery, if you will permit me the neologism.

Word to the wise (white) boy.

Bring the heat, RSS. I, for one, really dig your style and would like to see more. This is your chance to shine, baby!

I don't get all the hate. After reading some of his blog posts, he seems to be a decent-looking 20-something kid who has his heart in the right place. From what I understand he used to play basketball in college, so that comes with a bit of attitude, but calling him a douchebag seems unjustified. He takes time to respond to comments on his blog and seems to be doing something he's enjoying in his line of work as a stylist/dept. store buyer.

If anything, some of the posters on WAYWRN are more "douchy" in their preening selection of wild colours and patterns and obviously clashing eyeglasses that scream "LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! NOBODY APPRECIATES ME!"

If he was a poster on here you'll all be on his balls.

I don't hate the guy, but I can definitely tell he doesn't know much about real tailoring. His whole emphasis is on style, but when he tries to talk about fits, or tailoring it's
