Seems I Wasn't Looking Hard Enough

after finding gilt groupe the other day, i stumble across another designer discounter website...

JackThreads is another members-only website selling designer clothing at discount prices. the selection is decidedly more hipster/casual than GILT's more upscale styles but it looks like they have some decent stuff.

sorry ladies, unlike GILT, JackThreads only carries men's clothing.

What's a Boy to Do?

when it comes to personal style, i'm hoping to one day come close to the casual cool of steve mcqueen.

unfortunately, it's damn near impossible for a fella with a modest clothing budget, stockier frame and an extreme distaste for many of the styles popular for an under-40 man to pull that off these days.

2. as much as i like to get dressed up, i really don't need to "dress to impress" since i work with a bunch of guys and i'm a fan of the ladies.
3. i'm lazy

Stealing An Idea

one of my co-workers has a blog of her own where she documents what she wears everyday and how much it cost to pull off the ensemble. i thought it was a great idea and i'm thinking i'm gonna steal it from her. i kinda need to do some updating of my wardrobe anyway, ditch some of the things i don't really wear anymore and maybe wean myself from wearing my usual uniform of band t-shirt, jeans, hoodie and vans sneakers.
