People should stop directly quoting Lane so that putting him on ignore wouldn't be a pointless action.

hahahaha, but the difference is I think about it hard. Other people just buy **** on impulse and clog B&S every month.

Don't know what the weight is, but it is damned thick. Not even sure if it's calfskin or horse or what. Any suspicions?

true. but i'm happy when others clog b&s because they let me buy things for cheap, so no complaints here if you start doing that since you're also a size 2 in julius

This has become the most overrated thing on styleforum. Thinking a lot about something doesn't make the end result good.

but acting on impulsions doesn't usually bring a good end result. In fact that's why I want to visit stores now before buying more complex items, since they are much harder to gauge if they truly fit in my wardrobe. Uncontrol's right that I've just started to penetrate the aesthetic, and that's why I need further "test" before I commit to something. Kinda like a science experiment, I just wanna see what works with my current wardrobe that way I don't have to continually be branching out.

I think Malcolm Gladwell's "Blink" is a good framework. You learn a lot by looking/reading/learning and then you just kind of go by snap judgements that come from the gut.
