What a specimen of a 21 year vintage I am. :) tehe

What it means to be a man:

I think being a man means being honest in all you do, and always striving to be better. Being knowledgeable about the local and global affairs. Having an educated opinion, standing by it, and always being able to rethink it. About being passionate about life, your interests, your family and friends and your gal. Being a man means living life, laughing, and loving. These are The Things I see, live, do, think, read, watch, love, like, want and more.

Cheers, Jared

Picture from Sartorialist

So, I check The Sartorialist every day, among other websites.

I take a bit from here and there and apply it to myself, never copying.

I often will bookmark pictures from the page as "Inspiration".  Most pictures of are women, and so I just look at them and admire but rarely comment or share them.

This picture I just loved though.
The way the skirt fell is very different and appropriate, it follows the line of the jacket, which I'll talk about next, and continues down her leg to her utilitarian shoes.  The jacket was beautiful, tailored, masculine, and yet effeminate on her.  My favorite part though, was the touch of "in your face, normality/rules" by tossing in a pocket square.  That's something you'll rarely see a woman do.

Apparently the skirt was made by My Tea Cup. An Italian shop, specializing in woman's wear.
