Anyone have experience with a Remy Leather double collar leather jacket? Recently picked one up because I thought it looked good but I am not sure about how to style it. The double collar is definitely a unique look.4

I can't remember where I originally heard this, but it seems to be something a lot of people have either forgotten or never heard... The people that matter aren't impressed by things, they are only impressed by people. A Rolex on a random wrist means nothing more than a receipt. The important factor isn't the watch, but the wrist. Any interesting watch on an impressive gentleman's wrist becomes a status symbol - because of the wrist that's wearing it. There's a reason the phrase, "an empty suit," even exists. It's because the suit doesn't make the man; the man - or woman, for that matter - makes the suit. Buying things that a significant number of people can purchase does not impart status. Striving to be the best version of yourself, however, demonstrates a status that cannot be purchased...

I recently picked up the pictured two pair of suede AE Strand Dress Sneakers at a thrift site, but I have not decided on how to style them. I typically keep dress shoes and sneakers as separate pieces but I thought these might be the best crossover shoes that I have seen and figured I would give the Frankenshoe shoe style a try. They are quite stunning to look at in-person. I was hoping to get some styling ideas from all the fashionable gentlemen on here :-). Also, should a get a suede belt to match? Or is that trying too hard 🤷‍♂️.

I'm buying a new white dress shirt soon and was wondering about undershirt collars: Crewneck or V-neck? Traditionally, we have all worn Crew-Neck shirts. However, I have been leaning more toward V-neck shirts whenever I buy a solid-color T-shirt. I think the difference is that these newer V-necks aren't cut down so low that you look like Patrick Swayze 😇 in the 80s & 90s. Do any of you gentlemen wear V-Neck undershirts?

In these tricky times, anxiety and dread can sit heavy on a mind. But I just spent a fine hour polishing shoes and watching travel blogs on YouTube. Like my Saphir, the vibe sank deep into me and smoothed my cares away.
