Judging a book by its cover is permissable, but I think there's a line where it stops being about judging a person's cleanliness and professionalism and starts being about imposing one's subjective tastes upon another individual. For instance, I dressed up fairly well for my interview at a place where I wouldn't be wearing anything but jeans and a dark t-shirt -- simply to underline the fact that I can clean up when it's expected. If I was judged on the basis that I wore rounded or pointed black dress shoes or that I chose a mock-turtle neck or a v-neck sweater, then I would be more than unimpressed.

All the stuff that makes up one's style, clothing and hair and what-not, should be judged in instances where it is expected that you are dressing to project your desired image. If you're just walking by someone on the sidewalk after work on a Wednesday, I would assume that you would judge them differently than if you had crossed paths with the same individual at a social venue on a Friday night.

The dudes in Z's original post look stylish (at a surprisingly inexpensive cost), but I must say that it is a look that only looks that way on rail thin hipsters of a mostly caucasian bent. At the same time, I find it somewhat ironic and amusing that I'm feeling the same "but that's not what real guys look like!" idea that's been expressed by women for ages.

It's definately good that the style-oriented green posts have expanded to include guys, though. I'm interested in that sort of thing, but not interested enough to buy the standard magazines about that sort of stuff.

Cool outfit in theory, but I'd probably snicker at him if I was drunk and saw him on the street. I'm kind of a bitch like that, though. You should have seen me the other night when I ran smack into the crowd leaving the Wolfmother concert at the Palladium in Hollywood as I was walking home the other night. I was like "...and you're a douche, and you're a douche.. oh, look, another douche!"

The silly children don't understand that fashion is only for people who already look like models, Zoetica.

... Basically, I'd rather see a guy who tried to impress me with his personality, rather than with an array of different belts and scarves.



Okay. So tell us how.



First, get some cool clothes...
