Or be honestly your own creation.

What about the whole Kiton/Oxxford/Porsche/Patek masturbatory situation we have going on in the annals of good taste that is the men's "style" forums?
The laudatory posts concerning mediocre looking Italianate suits is stunning to say the least. And besides, I can frankly say that most of the people who are aspiring to Taste with a capital T look unusually similar to one another, with their scarves knotted a certain way, and their brown shoes antiqued a certain way.
Like Edith Sitwell wrote, "Good taste is the worst vice ever invented", I'd say that trying to achieve that "good taste" is the worst pursuit ever invented.
OK -
The last of these I'll bump. Promise.
Some ideas are here if you like kicking ideas around. If not these threads can sink back down.
They're all debating points & not competitions. No rights & no wrongs.
