So who won any way? What I do for my own fashion is simply look through mags like GQ, Esquire, Details, etc and cut out ads, pictures, etc of looks that I like and try to make them work with cheaper clothes (there's no way I'm paying $3,000 for ONE outfit). It's worked pretty well for me. One thing all my female friends have taught me is it isn't as much the look of the clothes or the style as much as it is how well the clothes fit your body. One guy might look great in this and that while another won't at all, so it's really about finding clothes that are stylish, that fit your personality, and that fit your body well. One tip all the girls gave me was if I try on a shirt and I think it's comfortable go down a size 90% of the time so it fits tighter. I've moved almost all of my shirts to L down from XL, but one problem I personally have is I have a broad frame from working out a lot AND long arms, so where a L fits me nicely in the chest the sleeves are almost always too short. What I've done is started to buy clothes that I really like a size up and have them tailored down to my size. This is expensive (adds $20-30 to the cost of each item) but you'll look ultra sharp. At any rate I'd love to have the help of a lovely lady further me on my way to fashion Nirvana, so again my number pick is 11. Oh, BTW I live in Jackson, MS, so if you're passing through here maybe you can make a 2-3 hour detour to help me out? *yeah right* lol, still my pick is 11, who knows maybe if I win and you're worth it I'll drive out to Dallas to get your godly advice on fashion. ~~ Cheers ~~
