Still ticking?
Or has it stopped now you have found and perfected your personal style?
I like both ideas: Never ending exploration on the one hand and finding your own style and sticking with it on the other.
Maybe I'm a mixture of the two ideas... Stuck with Classic American style since I 'found' it, but never stoped playing with the style & wanting to find out more about it all.
You?

Very much still ticking. I'm not even 30 yet, but I too have decided on what's Classic American is what's for me. It fits in anywhere yet stands out among today's sartorial mishaps. The research/history is part of the fun of it. Can't think of another style that has this going for it.
Real Trads never stop growing and learning.

I like to mix and match. Jermyn Street shirt with a poplin sack suit, for example. So, exploration goes on.
I have both American and British styles in my wardrobe. Always wear side vents, some jackets with darts, some without. English shoes(Cleverley).Ties tend to be J. Press. Haven't changed this pattern in many years.
I grew up preppy but in a family with a very strong modernist point of view when it came to aesthetics. Still basically preppy and modernist, but in my own way.
