    One thing I really like about the Gentleman's Gazette

    As I mentioned before about the Gentleman's Gazette , I enjoy their videos on Youtube.

    I don't agree with everything they espouse.

    For instance, silk flower boutonnières are perfectly fine, yet walking sticks are costume pieces? C'mon on!!!

    I really appreciate that in a great number of their videos they show and explain a fashion "rule" and then they will note those that broke those rules and how it worked for them. They also often state that they don't want people just slavishly following their opinions. Raphael and crew espouse knowing the rules but also that true style requires the confidence and individual's own personal stamp on their attire (which sometimes involves breaking those rules!) The three main presenters all have differing takes on classic men's style and how to incorporate it into their own outfits. I think there is an awful lot of good information to be had from the GG.

    After all, the world is far more interesting with boutonnières and walking sticks!

    Cheers
