Did you know that I have a menswear background? Yep ~ sure do. Just ask my twin brother pictured below.

Waaay back in the day (in my case, the early 90’s), I was a menswear buyer and that job is what really introduced me to fashion … and, frankly, I never looked back.
I am trained in classic (traditional) menswear attire. A classic/traditional suit, a classic/traditional mens sport coat, a fab classic/traditional shoe and what they were once called, classic/traditional “furnishings” ~ meaning all the accessories that go with; dress shirts, ties, socks, etc.
I pretty much know everything one needs to know about how these items should fit and fall on the body, where a slack should break on the shoe, the proper sleeve length and, of course, the all important difference between braces and suspenders. … you know the difference, right? You also know the answer to the question “Should the sock match the slack or should the sock match the shoe?” … right? … Lower the collar? … ok, I’ll stop.
Anyhoo, we all know that women help dress the men (hubby, boyfriend, son, grandson) in their lives. Should I do a little Menswear 101?
Hmmm … I’m thinkin’ there’s a new video in my future.

Your brother he’s so cute!
Oh GREAT … now that’s just going to go right to his head, Larsa!
Great for real estate attire. I am from the era where we did not wear blue jeans to work Oh well, times change.
I know – I never did either. “Maybe” on casual Friday but that really just meant you slacks and a sweater … never really denim.
YES!!…bring on Jamie’s Gents..formal,business, casual,sporty,cowboy chic…all of them…everyone deserves to look and feel good about themselves and you’re just the one to get things started.

Yes to a video!!!!!
A man in a suit 👌🏼🤤, makes me go gaga!!! Very attractive. I was a HUGE Diane Keaton fan, still am. I loved that trend, from my necktie to my wing tips, I was all in! It seemed difficult to mess up.
Nothing quite like a sheet dressed man!
Yes to the video! Always good to get an overview. If I am correct the socks should match the pants and or slacks correct?
You are CORRECT! (So many people don’t know this. )
Agreed! My Mom taught me that years ago… I think the video would be awesome!
