We’ve had many posts of air travel
We’ve posted several times about how we dress when traveling, this one popped up on my feed today https://youtube.com/watch?v=rNZcO47axOI&si=Lf34uuc9zRewEC1E

I love that YouTube channel. So many good insights
Most Surprising thing
What would you say is the most surprising thing you've discovered on your fashion journey? For me, it is the true of joy of getting to explore various colors and putting together an outfit. It elevates what could be a basic part of living to something one has to put thought into, and that is good! We should always be looking to put more thought into our lives.

Started wearing suspenders at work a few months ago. Of all the level ups this got me more compliments than anything. I was so surprised.
1920's
I’m curious what you all think about men’s fashion in the 1920s? This thought was sparked by the show Peaky Blinders (and the new movie, which I have yet to watch). I know the wardrobe in the show is stylized to look “cool,” but it got me thinking about something. What caused men to stop dressing up? If you look at photos of men from roughly 1910–1940, there’s a noticeable difference. Suits, hats, structured clothing. It wasn’t just fashion; it was a sense of respect and presence. Today, that level of effort feels rare. My initial thought is that the decline in dress standards relates to major economic and cultural changes: the rise of more casual workplaces, evolving social norms, and shifting ideas about class and identity. However, I wonder if these reasons fully capture the change. Here’s what I’m really wondering: Is there a place for 1920s-style fashion today? Would wearing that level of dress (even casually, like to the grocery store) just come off as a costume now? Or is it only “strange” because no one does it anymore? So what I am wondering… What if a group of guys just decided to bring it back? Not as a gimmick, but as a standard. Dressing well not to stand out but to show respect for themselves and others. If people asked why, and the answer was simply: “Because I want to present myself with respect.” Do you think that could actually shift how people view men’s fashion over time? Or is that era gone for good? P.S. I am not knocking anyone's fashion in this group, and everyone is looking like a BOSS in their chosen style. And the people here who are learning every day, you are in the right spot. I have been checking in with RMRS for about 10 years now, and it has helped me tremendously.

@Mike Thompson I'm a veterinarian and in this field, it is standard for us to wear scrubs. But I choose dress or button down shirts, a tie, vest, or suspenders. And I'm set apart. It is a "uniform" not a costume. The social and relational benefits are real. My rule of thumb is always to dress one or two steps up from what is convention. If you go too far it can seem socially awkward or anomalous.
What's your environment?
We are all in different places and walks in life. Some of us have a good understanding, some of us are still learning. Your environment can affect your attitude and approach. What is perfect for one would be out of place for another. My environment is supposedly work-appropriate attire, but all too often I see people looking like they're ready for Walmart. I've seen directors show up to interview prospective employees in T shirts, raggedy jeans and tennis shoes. Because of this, I'm not wearing a suit to work. If I did, I'd fit in even less than I do now. I'm one of the better dressed men in my building, even though some here would consider my outfits casual. I'd love to step it up a little more, but it just wouldn't fit the environment. What about you? What's your environment, how do you stand out and what would you change if you could?

Mostly work environment. I'm a veterinarian, and one of the very very few that still wears a shirt and tie as opposed to scrubs.

I'm a man of faith, a husband, a father, a veterinarian, and a fountain pen restorer. And my goal is to live in a kind and confident manner.
