> You can wear anything and make it look upscale with the right body language and a good presence. I got into this very high-class 5 star underground club wearing some red converse chuck taylors, ripped jeans, a red preppy shirt, and red sunglasses on top of my spiky hair. I got in that club with no trouble while every dude in there was in suits. I put those those suits in shame. Would you rather stand out or look upscale?

> For you guys saying “I can’t pull that off”, next time try wearing something you normally would not wear like a cowboy hat or a fedora at a mall and just walk around with it, you will feel a bit uncomfortable at first but you are expanding your comfortable zone. Then you will say to yourself “I can pull anything off!”.

I don’t go that far and do something that extreme, but I do try to dress out of my comfort zone. Just with the clothes I prefer to wear, I find it hard to “pull off” because I feel the hat clashes with the clothes. I guess for me, I can’t “pull it off” because I don’t have any clothes I would wear with a fedora. Or at least, that’s how I feel. Although, it does depend a lot on the fedora. Maybe I just need to find the right one…

Pherophreak, that guy’s an ahole with no sense of style and was just jealous ‘cause you look so bitchin’ in it!

I love fedoras! Though my favorite has to be this one…

The Panama. 😉 Wolf looks so _mmmm_ in his…don’t forget the shades. 🆒

> _ **I LOVE fedoras and the way they look. I think they’re really badass. I just can’t seem to pull it off. It’s probably also cause I CAN’T pull it off with the clothes I wear…** _

Yeah, that’s the thing, it’s gotta go with the rest of your threads. Let’s face it, when most of us wear hats we think we looked smacked.

There’s a very cool black dude who’s the door man at one of the jazz clubs Wolf and I go to in Philly. He’s quite the fashion plate… standing at the door wearing a white collared shirt and vest (love the vest!) …with a brass handled walking stick, his fedora tilted at the perfect rakish angle…a smile on his face like he’s your friend and has been expecting you. His charming personality caps off his look just right. The man is together.

I think the hat’s a great tool too. It’s a nice opener, makes it easy for girls to approach.

As for me, I’ma tam/beret kinda gal…love them in winter.

The Newsboy suits me, too…love the colors and the little brim on these.

Today that guy called me a virgin who will never touch a woman. Lol. I got him to shut up though. 🙂

I’m going to buy that second fedora as soon as money permits. I need to get a better job! To buy hats!

LOL pherophreak… I just wear an imaginary golden laurel wreath everywhere I go, and it seems to do the trick.

Occaisionally, I will wear a Gatsby, but that’s only on cold days, and we don’t have many of those here.
