Unfortunately, you didn't see any of that because his reflective metallic purple trench coat is so blisteringly bright that the only thing you want from him is his Wayfarers so you can stop your retinas from bleeding. And then a nearby truck comes down the road, for some reason with its brights on, and wham-o! the glasses shatter from the intense burst of light. Somewhere an astronaut has a sunspot in his eye from where this guy is standing, and, unable to wipe away his eye pain with his mitted astronaut hand, slowly goes insane. Don't make an astronaut go crazy, and for god's sake, don't wear this coat.

My Credentials:
I shop at the Gap, H&M, and Urban Outfitters. I've been known to spend hours browsing the Amazon clothing section in search of that one amazing find. I'm a new age window shopper, spending much of my spare time sifting through Express, Banana Republic, Calvin Klein, Topman and a multitude of other outlets 96 items at a time. I read GQ and skim Esquire while reading Askmen fashion articles. I have RSS feeds for Kempt and Hypebeast and at times I even look at the Sartorialist. I'm intrigued with looking good and I love that feeling you get when a well put together outfits turns into a fantastic ensemble. I'm no slave to fashion, mind you, I just simply appreciate a classic and classy look that shows a timeless professionalism and sophistication as well as a presence of mind that says I’m not a filthy bum, I'm serious and I belong here. But sometimes there are pieces that go too far. There are particular sartorial extravagances that leave me wondering: does someone actually wear this stuff? Here will be the home of my finger pointing and heckling at some of the more interesting and nonsensical fashion pieces out there.
