Despite my presumptions, they were interested and brought up the idea of doing a blog post on menswear. So, here I am, doing just that. Menswear is hard, though. I know what I like, but that doesn't mean most men would even dare wear it or "get it!" Plus, there is kind of a limiting style for men: shirt & pants. How can you really make that chic?
Nevertheless, here is my attempt at it. The main outfit is what I call the "insatiably sexy J.Crew look," with the cashmere vest the center-piece "splurge" item, followed by the rest of the look for much less!
And, here's a new twist for this year's blogs -- Every blog post will end with a questions for you, the reader, to offer an answer as you'd like. Question: What style does your man have? And, if you don't have a man, what style would you want your man to have?
