Hey guys, firstly sorry for my absence, I do however have a very important question. My brother in a couple of months will get married and he's decided that the dress color tone will be nature style color, not much into the lightweight color, but however I do have doubts and questions about 2 of the styles. Both of them are very good to be honest and I'm most into the second style. Furthermore, I do think that seeing both of them on real photos than from the posts on Pinterest. So, any advice, opinion and feedback?

Would you go for the trending colors of the season just because they’re “in”? For example, burgundy is everywhere this winter. Do you pick it up purely for the trend, or do you stick to colors that actually fit your style and wardrobe? I’m curious — when it comes to personal style, how much weight do you give to seasonal trends versus timeless choices?

I own two Overcoats in Charcoal and and a gray herringbone, but have been considering and wanting a camel. Then this morning glances through FB Marketplace this Prisma Italian Coat pops up in my size for 20.00!! I figured it was a sign and price seemed to good. Best part is it was practically delivered and saved me about 40-50 miles round trip driving. But I'm not 100% sure on material? It does have the Prisma label seen inside, and the Italian made on the collar and fully lined which is an indicator of quality. But is missing the launders and material tag which is frustrating. I believe these were made in the 90s. I was initially looking for camel, but through some online searches all I can find is 95% wool 5% cashmere anyone have insight on these coats?

After getting seated for dinner, a party of one or two too many showed up to be seated at the bar. It appeared to be a lady's birthday celebration and the group was mostly female, so this gentleman kindly offered to be the one (or maybe one of two) forced to stand. At first, there was nothing really notable - at least not that I immediately noticed. He showed up in a black button-up (tucked), a pair of jeans, a leather belt, and a pair of work boots. Neither the boots nor the jeans were something I'd wear, but that's not the point. The jeans are a little too young for a man his age but that, also, isn't what caught my attention. He was regularly moving around the group - drinking, talking, and laughing. What caught my eye was the fact that every time he stopped walking, he felt the need to pull up his pants. And, as I watched, his shirt slowly came more and more untucked - until it was completely untucked. He tucked it back in a couple of times before giving up on it altogether. I don't know why so many men have the desire to wear low-rise pants. If you don't have a six-pack, there's a 99% chance it makes you look worse instead of better - especially from behind. Almost every time I see a man, from behind, wearing low-rise pants (even jeans) - it looks like some stage of this gentleman's outfit tonight. In a word, it looks unflattering... So, here's my advice: Start counting how many times a day you feel the need to pull up your pants - even if you don't actually pull them up. If it's more than once every four hours, then you have a problem: your pants don't fit you properly. If your hip measurement isn't significantly larger than your waist measurement, a belt is basically useless. If you ever notice yourself pulling up your pants (which is usually the third or fourth time you've done it) - you should probably change something. It could be the size and fit of your pants, it could be switching to suspenders because a belt doesn't work for your body, or it could be switching to higher-rise pants that actually work with your body.

My loving wife has raised a valid point, asking why I'm always taking "selfies" and posting them. I've tried to explain that it's not vanity; it's a highly scientific process for Project: Develop Awesome Style. By documenting my outfits, I'm creating a visual database to track what works and what makes me look like I got dressed in the dark. So, team, I put it to you: is this an advanced personal development strategy or just a terminal case of vanity? I await your expert opinions.
