Men Wearing Ties

On the other hand, who likes a man in a tie? A man in a tie is always dumb. Look at that dumb idiot, working for the man! TV shows like Mad Men might try to trick you into thinking ties are cool, but you're supposed to hate every tool on that show (right?), so you just got tricked. By the year 2020 we will have reached Peak Tie and won't have any more ties, too bad.

Eddie Bauer Leather Belt

HOW TO MAKE AN GENUINE EDDIE BAUER LEATHER BELT:
1. Get a cow.
2. Feed it nothing but fish for several months.
3. Set it on fire.
4. Cut a 38" strip off the charred animal (40" if it's right after Christmas) and tie it around your waist.
5. Slump lower in your chair as the people around you wrinkle their noses.
6. Smile! You just saved $50!
7. Nod your head to the Eurotrash beat of Ace of Base.

RATING: 10% right now, but the belt is currently frozen in a sealed bag full of baking soda, and I have high hopes.

This Shirt I Bought At The Renaissance Festival

Worn this year in Texas? Dork alert! Worn fifteen years from now in any state out of driving distance? Instant hipster cred. I'm not sure which is worse (just kidding).

wearing a suit in the summer

In summertime, almost all of the advantages of wearing a suit are offset by the fact that it is no fun to wear a jacket when it is balls hot outside and you have to walk around NYC in the damn sun and then risk passing out on a subway platform because you can't goddamn breath and you're sweating like a whore in church. Booo.

wearing a suit

Now that I'm a lawyer (more or less), I have to wear a suit to work every day. At first I was very resistant to this idea because I thought it would be uncomfortable and dyke-y looking (suit + short hair = dyke, or so my thinking went), but since I figured out how to femme it up (skirt + girly top + sexy high heels = femme) I love wearing suits. The best part is how other people react to the suit. I've noticed that people don't seem to question my motives or logic when I'm in a suit. It's amazing. So if you ever want to sneak into a courthouse or political fundraiser that you forgot to RSVP for, I'd recommend sporting one.
