A lot of people have a hard time separating body type from style. This outfit would not look good on anyone. He needs a jacket; the sweater would look better if it was textured; blue chinos are hard to wear. This same outfit would look bad on a skinny or athletic person. 🧵

This list is terrible. When people say that men should never wear a particular item of clothing, their view is often shaped by fear and prejudice. It's also often an issue of them not knowing how to style something. I will run through some examples on this list. 🧵
Here are 40 things a man should never wear:
1. Flips flops unless you’re near a pool or beach.
2. Flamboyant pocket squares. All it says is you pay $1,200 a month for a car you can’t afford.
3. Statement socks. They don’t give you personality or style.
4. Cargo shorts.

The submarine thing is suspicious. It seems very far fetched that a bunch of billionaires would take such a risky trip to check out the titanic ruins. I mean surely they have more pressing things to do as billionaires... And now they've disappeared. Sounds like an escape plan.

Aside from the fact that this guy sells online courses on how to get rich, I will explain why it's obvious from his clothes that he's not an aristocrat but rather a middle-class striver. 🧵

1. cheap cashmere is coated w chemicals, so when ur in a store, bring the sweater up to ur nose & smell it
2. rub it across ur lips to see if it's greasy
3. put the sleeve in ur mouth & taste it
4. now gently chew
