A web site about not dressing like a jackass.

Fogeyish?

Put This On advises:

The blue blazer is a classic menswear staple.  It pairs well with almost anything and is appropriate for almost any occasion that doesn’t call for a suit.  That said, the classic brass buttons can look a little fogeyish.

Fogeyish? Fogeyish? The guys running an entire site devoted to tweed, plaid, and dressing like your grandfather are worried that the brass buttons on “a classic menswear staple” look fogeyish?

What’s next, warnings that plaid flannel shirts may make you look “a little lumberjacky?”

I am flabbergasted by how beautiful this jacket is.

That’s because you’re looking at the glamour shot:

Everything looks nice when it’s gussied up like that. Let’s see it in the day-to-day shot:

Not so sexy now, is it? Hard to believe it’s even the same coat, in fact.

Anyway, I sincerely hope you enjoy looking like an Italian redneck this winter.

This Is What They Call Help?

Nerdboyfriend wants you to pair this horrible coat:

horrible-plaid-coat

With these terrible pants:

red-clown-pants

…in order to look like a character from an 80′s movie that bombed. All for the low, low price of just $1,206.81. Seriously.

I can’t remember who runs that site, but I hope he or she understands the kind of hell reserved for people who make suggestions like that.
