No

No, basically, clothes have been impossible since 1967. Up until then there was hope.

I've found this one spectacular.

I notice that most of the blogs are about the wonder of the blogger's personal taste or whatever sensational look they can find on the street or writing about the latest and greatest, even from a traditional shop. Problem is the outsider aspect of most of them. I think it is dangerous to get style tips for a conservative profession from someone who really never gets to meet or even more importantly understand the mindset of these men and what makes them tick. I think it is also bad to get tips from someone who has an interest but not an affinity for style or clothing. How does one know whether this affinity is in place or whether they have good taste or not? Well that's what suggests talent in oneself. One yard stick is that men who rely solely on old pictures for style and clothes generally cannot interpret the current or where trends are going.

It is difficult to know what advice or write up about style will help someone. I like to think that I remain conscious of this issue and that I bring a love of clothes combined with experience of what works and what doesn't in a metropolitan, professional setting, as well as for after hours fun. However, I realize that i often fall into the This-is-what-i-like rut. I could do better if I had the time to really make observations and a much bigger budget for photos etc without any need to appease sponsors. I have been approached to do something like this but I just don't want to. For me, this remains a hobby.

Even though clothing is a series of concentric circles from the personal (second skin) to the tribal (acceptable totems) to the most general (classics) there are constants you can identify. That's where I try to go. it is not easy because clothing is a matter of being a snob while trying to teach about it is a matter of enlightened generosity. There is a lot of tension there.

Today I got more from one line from a maker than most blogs can supply in a year.

Keep your overweight father out of the discussion.

Really one just requires money and a little common sense.

Why use your fat dad to make a mockery of me? He is the same man that had your mother clamp her lips on his member before she kissed you good night. The same man that had your mother sprawled out onto the same Giant vibrator table you ate at minutes later. The same man who groped your mother discretely as she told you that there is no suit nibbling monster in your closet. Surely, you'd handle his e-image with a little more care.
