I been loving what my life has turned into since I decided to adopt classic man sensibility.

The respect level has gone up tenfold. Ratchet bitches don't dare make eye contact with me now. Im 'sir' to people 30 years my senior. Crisp white dress shirts, monogrammed cuff, trinity knot in my tie, the tailor knows exactly how to "find my triangle", double monk straps made an Italian bitch who barely spoke English say "those shoes are beautiful"...

I can't go back.
 
Just got back from Tokyo. Them some clean dressing mofuckers. Business suites fitted and shoes is on point as fuck.

Outside of work you got folks dressing all types of styles but when these dudes dress ... they dress. Got some ideas without getting too weird. Some of them mofukcas go all the way left.
 
With Spring approaching swiftly and summer a few months away....anyone hip to new warm weather styles that they don't mind sharing?

Good question.

I'm still rocking these joints. With suits or with jeans. I don't even care.

:lol:

I don't do well with summer transition because my taste always caters toward cold weather .

Can't remember where I read it or heard it, but Atlanta is supposed to be the number one spot for men's shoes.
I think it was Dominique Wilkins doing an interview.

Are those Stacy Adams?

Yes sir. I put some dr scholls in them joints and I can hoop in them if I wanted to.

I got some brown ones too. The design is a little different tho. I was one of them cats that rock Timbs all the time. Wifey was talking about Vin Diesel one day, like when do men ever grow out of that look? In every flick he got on boots, most of the time they Timbs. I said I got you, it aint about age tho. I got them joints and she was like okay baby, good looking shoes. She didn't even know they were boots.



:lol:

:dance:

I thought so. Yeah, nothing like some Stacy's. Time to go boot shopping.

The cheapest way I can think of to start a serious biz wardrobe?



Get 3 basic on-sale suits from Saks off 5th. Medium Grey, Charcoal Grey, Blue (or two blue and one medium grey). $200 each. Have them tailored for about $60 each (find some south american working out of his house in a Spanish area: e.g., Bushwick in NYC). Back in the day I did this and those shits were half canvas not fused! Today it might be the "Italian" or "Black label" stuff.

Get 4 pairs of shoes from Nordstrom's Rack (just shop the racks in the stores). $200 - $300 if you hit good sales. 2 black, 2 brown (one dress and one casual in each color). ONLY leather soles.

Get 6 Saks Off 5th brand dress shirts 3 blue and 3 white. Get one black dress shirt, one grey dress shirt. Then get one blue and one white polo shirt. The total here is $300 if you hit good sales. To save money, get only the blue and the black dress shirts tailored at the same guy who did your suits (never a regular dry cleaners). Always keep one of the tailored blue shirts in your office.

Buy a shoe shine kit.

Buy two shoe blocks.

Buy a suit brush.

Take your time picking out 8 silk ties (or maybe a slight blend). No 100% polyester. Always try to pick them out in person. Never iron those shits. Get them pressed (not dry cleaned) when they are wrinkled.

Get a pack of white pocket squares and then buy several unique pocket squares.

Maybe get a blue wool gold button blazer. Don't pay more than $200 when starting out.

For god's sake brush those suits after wearing and spot clean them. Get them pressed monthly but dry clean ONLY if they get dirty/funky.








Once you get some money in the bank - get your shit tailor made, get custom shoes, get a Rolex and never look back. Wear these old suits when you take your kids to the park , when you go shopping, or to your IRS audit.
