Honestly, if you find a man or lady at a Bay (usually the DT one here in Calgary) that is semi-intelligent and working in the men's section, they can help you look half decent on a good budget with some nice brands.

I had one that totally help me match a shirt and tie to a funky pinstripe I had going on.

Personally, I can make jeans and a button-up look good, so that's as far as I go 6/7ths of the week for myself

I like this guy.

Quote:
Exhibitionist and philosopher, Diogenes is said to have eaten in the marketplace, urinated on some people who insulted him, defecated in the theatre, masturbated in public and pointed at people with his middle finger. Sympathizers considered him a devotee of reason and an exemplar of honesty. Detractors have said he was an obnoxious beggar and an offensive grouch.

Which philosophy or poli-sci 101 text should I keep written on the reverse of the pocket square? You know, just in case I want to impress people.

I have a question. For all the fruits who where Ed Hardy and have there $400 jeans, with the white tipped hair. Where do they go for underwear or boxers.

Yes, it is a silly question but I have always been curious. Surely they don't go to Wal-Mart and pick a 4 pack up, that wouldn't be douchy enough.

Mexx, Gap, Banana Republic, JCrew, Rosen, and Holt have all been mentioned. Another place that has surprisingly nice for the price is Zara.

Whats with the (no homo) in the thread title hahaha??? Most of us dont care if you are gay, but putting that in the title is just weird.

Anyway, I wear these kinds of clothing to work and I've had really good luck at Winners... however if I wanted to spend more I would check out Mexx etc.

Isn't that an HFBoards meme or 4chan or something?
