come correct

so i've been meaning to make a post like this for a long time but have held back because i knew i would take a lot of shit for it, but whatever. for those not already at a place of wearing clothes that fit your body well and look capital-S Sharp (and quite a few are), you're very close. that in mind, GQ is a bullshit magazine, just an overgrown lad mag in a lot of ways, but they really do know their fashion and style, in a big way. and very helpfully, they do a lot of succinct, visual how-to's and general rules-ish type things, and even though my personal style isn't totally in line with all their choices, i almost always agree with their rules for things. really, they're excellent for young men growing into their adult fashion selves. so here's a link to their latest, a guide to dressing on a budget. def not their best one, but it felt appropriate as a door opener (non-indicative-of-the-material-but-still-outstanding-pull-quote: "You can go to Walmart and get some good-ass tracksuits. I wear them whenever I need to be comfortable—like on my plane."—Ludacris). i (much) more strongly recommend this and this, with this as a great corollary for the working stiffs amongst us. stay strong, and stay hungry

PS hawks pulling it together in a big way!!! about damn time, so antsy for playoffs
