Click your Heels


The Velvet Slipper has a very distinct and prominent place in fashion history. The shoe originally was worn and created for the English aristocracy but now has fused its way into American culture. Initially the shoe was meant for formal occasions but now.....if you can pull it off, by all means wear them. Find a way to transcend your everyday look by neutralizing your outfit with a pair of SLIPPERS. Every Dandy must have a pair...they are ESSENTIAL

The Boys in Blue







In my opinion blue (especially darker shades of blue) has become just as much of a neutral color as black and white in that it's chromatically symmetrical with both earth tones and vibrant colors.

Cause I'm a Boss...






When you assume a position of power people will eventually have to succomb to it...dress like you got it until you get it.

Dandy Decorum as dictated by Scott Sternberg







1.
Opening a conversation with "What do you do?" makes you sound like a shifty, social-climbing dickwad. Small talk is for sissies, but if you're stuck with it, you can certainly come up with something better than that.

2.
Talking about what brand you're wearing is gay in the bad way. Just keep quiet and play dumb if someone asks. Talking about what a great deal you got on the aforementioned item is worse. If you must, tell your mom, because she has sale empathy and will take your victory as her own. It's sick.

3.
I don't think a tie is a relic, not yet. It's purely masculine—that one garment that allows you to go a little outside the box. A tie with a well-cut suit makes you look put-together and confident. It's an auto-chic, easy uniform.

4.
Cigarettes are a vile, dirty habit. Joints, on the other hand, are perfectly acceptable.

5.
Whenever you start a new project or a new job, don't tell anyone what you're working on, because it can change direction a million times and once you start telling the world about it, you get constrained by your own mouth.

6.
That skin-toned paste your girlfriend gave you to treat your pimple is makeup. Don't kid yourself. You're a girl if you use it. Figure something else out.

7.
Rabid atheism does not lead to attractive or acceptable cocktail-party conversation. You know who you are and you need to chill. We get it, okay? God is for dummies. Now shut your hole.

8.
It's just not cool to fart on a plane, even if everyone's ears are plugged from the altitude and they can't hear where it came from. Heed my warning: Airplane-fart karma is a bitch, and you will find yourself at the receiving end on a sleepless transcontinental red-eye soon enough.

9.
Style fills the gap between how you see yourself and how you want other people to see you. It is not a mysterious quality reserved for Cary Grant or Liberace. You have a sense of it in there somewhere. It's just a matter of finding a way to express it without seeming like you're trying.

10.
Rules, as they say, are meant to be broken. Don't get too caught up with what I—or anyone else—tell you about your personal style, except for No. 8.

Consistancy at its Best


It's only one dude to me who consistently kills it every time, and holds true to CASUAL LUXURY brand. Look at Bentley. I don't give a damn if he is wearing sweats or a peak label custome suit, his brand murders everyone in this pic...It just looks so natural

And then there are those rare occurances when fashion and art are interconnected to create something truly magnificent...
