Anonymous asked: What are your thoughts on the short sleeve OCBD? I feel that it's a very underrated piece. It's a step up from the t-shirt or even a polo, yet not as formal as a traditional long sleeve OCBD. While I don't condone wearing it with a tie and going to work (i.e. Dilbert), I do find it very versatile such a pairing it with a pair of shorts/chinos. You could even wear it under a sweater...

Love that jacket! Deets? Oh yes, I’m a fan of LE too.

How does sweating ruin your shirts? Pit stains?
Absolutely. I know that pit stains are caused by the aluminum in my anti-perspirant, but I’m not going to stop wearing it.

A Quick Rant on Abercrombie & Fitch on Savile Row
I’m not one of those people who prays at the alter of the free-market. I respect hard work and success, but our world is too complicated to believe The Invisible Hand always knows best. This brings me to the issue of keeping Abercrombie & Fitch off Savile Row.
As a connoisseur of tailored menswear, Saville Row will always occupy a special place in my heart and imagination. I hope to...

The internet is good at guides. You can find one for just about everything. Narrowing the scope to fashion/style, there are literally hundreds of style guides published every day…but there is one gaping hole. No one is telling you how to get dressed. Well, look no further. Stylepoints is here to set you straight.

Anonymous asked: Great blog. I'll be starting a graduate assistantship in the fall and the preferred dress code is shirt and tie. Here's the thing, I don't like wearing a shirt and tie by itself; in other words I never wear a tie without a blazer, or a v-neck sweater at the very least. How do I go about: 1. Staying in the preferred dress code 2. Not looking like I'm trying to outdo anyone, i.e....

Anonymous asked: Is there a stylish way to resign from a job. I've had it here and I want to go out in style rather than in cuffs. Any suggestions. Also, I'm intrigued with the idea of making this a week long event that culminates with my written resignation. I probably shouldn't be that petty right?

WSJ: Soccer is Ruining America →
cbenjamin:
This article, now 3 years old, succinctly shows why the rest of the developed world thinks Americans are ignorant dickheads. How could some talk so much shit about soccer when our national pasttime is baseball… Fucking baseball. A sport that is just as low scoring and has the most repetitive highlights in the history of highlights. Seriously. Baseball is the only sport that I could...
