Introduction

The purpose of this blog is to set forth a series of rules on matters sartorial (and related subjects) for men. I have compiled these rules after long observation of the often degraded state of male dress and demeanor one sees in our great cities of late.

These rules are not intended as mere suggestions, rather they should be adhered to strictly. Deviate at your peril.


Sincerely,

Mr. Wooster

Rules 41 through 50

41. If your idea of “business casual” is a pair of chinos and a golf shirt, don’t do business casual.

42. No patterned silk shirts. Ever.

43. Do not pair a dark shirt with a lightly-colored tie, unless you are in a film about organized crime.

44. Square-toed shoes are never a good idea.

45. Center-vented or side-vented is always preferable to ventless.

46. Unless you are a competitive swimmer, Speedos are never appropriate.

47. Never wear a button-down collar shirt with a double-breasted jacket. No exceptions.

48. Necklaces are never a good idea for men.

49. Wearing your college class ring past the age of 25 is pathetic.

50. Never wear socks of any kind with sandals. If your feet are that cold, you shouldn’t be wearing sandals.
