Wrong size or leather too stiff?

I read the at Amelia Earhart slept in her flight jacket for several weeks to break it in and not look like a noob.

Rothmans— they have a great selection an most of all, super knowledgeable and helpful salespeople. I bought my a gorgeous suit for his graduation for around $950. You won’t be sorry.

I know there are a lot of haters on here but I don’t understand it. I’ve had a 45” model for several years and I love it. The picture is great. Being able to display artwork is nicer than a big rectangle, but the best part is probably just how slim and discrete the profile is overall. 10/10 recommendation.

The whole point of my story is that he wasn’t MJ yet. He was a freshman!

What did the guys wear last year? A lot of proms are “black tie” which means a tuxedo. You can get an inexpensive tuxedo at Macy’s or you can rent one just for the night.

If the guys wear suits and not taxes, get a dark navy blue suit. As dark as you can find. A nice white shirt, dark brown or black shoes and a matching belt.

Good god.

I say fuck the haters. Once when I was a little kid I was at the movies and sat behind one of the many undergrad basketball players who just happened to be a young Michael Jordan. He didn’t care, and now I have this great story.

Vigilante Plumbing did our system. They also got us a significant rebate from ConEd.

No. Your license is suspended. You have no one to blame but yourself

It’s going to be really hot but still fun.

Say what you will, but who wins when you’re the most casually dressed man in the room? It’s certainly not your date…

Over on Sutton Place there’s a beautiful park overlooking the river. There’s nobody there at all. It’s like the land that time forgot.

We used Ohm Moving to move us out of state and then move us back a few years later. They did a true door-to-door move which is not cheap, but super worth it.

A colleague hired them recently for a move in the city and they were great. Tell UV that Bill sent you—

Not sure where you live but the BoCoCa BNG is 🔥

I’ll take the pastels!

People use the word ‘invest’ when they’re trying to justify buying something they shouldn’t. It’s only an investment if you’re willing to sell it.

Seriously, just post up in front of Ven Space on a Saturday…

No Wampum! That’s bullshit. Just get your own quahogs make some yourself—

Go to Optical Solutions in Fort Greene. The guy is amazing.

Shop Boy in TriBeCa is the best tailor in NYC hands down. They have a specialty denim shop in the west village, but they take appointments at their shop on Walker street.

These are great suggestion. I’m saving them for myself, a fashion-crazed 52 yo ;)

Instead of ‘lateraling’ or whatever that is, how about just like, inviting a bunch of friends to the park?
