From Jeffrey
What is the minimum income that you consider appropriate for a bachelor to achieve the number of suits you recommend for the minimum and medium wardrobes that you detail in my favorite of your many insightful posts--'A Suitable Wardrobe'--as well as for the corresponding minimum number of shirts, ties, squares, shoes, coats, sportscoats that you discuss in other posts?
There's no simple answer to your question but I can give you a way to think about what you want to accomplish.
I frequently advise clients to budget the acquisition of four articles of tailored clothing and two pairs of shoes each year, plus 25%-33% for accessories. The client's total budget determines how much can be spent on each item. So, for example, a bit more than $25,000 annually buys bespoke from Savile Row or Naples. Half that amount buys Hong Kong bespoke and MTO shoes, or $8,000 buys good quality ready to wear (call it Brooks Brothers and Alden).
The challenge with this formula is that it's not enough clothing the first couple of years. Suits have a finite life that varies with their quality level, but even the best quality clothing will wear out quickly if it's worn two or three times a week. So in the early years, it helps to acquire a minimum wardrobe of less expensive clothing quickly and only then (if ever) improve the quality.
Fortunately, early in one's career shirt and trousers is as formal as a man may need to dress, and acquiring a wardrobe for daily suit-wearing can often be spread over as many as five years.
But however long it takes, young men should accumulate a wardrobe of six suits for each season, two odd jackets for each season, an overcoat, a raincoat and seven pair of shoes as quickly as they can. At the end of this accumulation period they'll have enough clothing to be able to reduce their rate of acquisition to something comparable to what's in the second paragraph. Or they can spend the same amount on fewer items and improve the quality level.

Maybe I'm mis-reading, but six suits for each season? In Minnesota, that's 24 suits! I have one -- and if it gets worn four times a year, that's a busy year. I'm in the media biz (magazines), and I'm the only one who consistently wears a shirt and tie to work -- even the bosses don't "dress up" that often. Some might think I'm trying to show them up, but at my age -- 57 -- that isn't happening. "Dress for the job you want, not the job you have," goes the adage. I've got the job I want, and I still dress for it. But 24 suits?!

There are two seasons: spring/summer and fall/winter.

In Atlanta we have 2 seasons. Summer & Fall. It never gets cold enough to call it winter and it is really warm most of the year.

- Irid said...
What do you think is the appropriate age to start building this type of wardrobe?
I'd really love to have that many suits, but my overall income doesn't even reach your suggested 25000$ mark, so I wonder how much time do I have to live up to your expectations. Now I'm 18. - June 26, 2008 at 8:43:00 AM PDT
- Will said...
Irid, it's really a chicken and egg question. A man doesn't need that many suits until he needs to wear them every day. And generally, if he needs to wear them every day his income will permit him to afford them.
At age 18 you may need just a single suit and an odd jacket. - June 26, 2008 at 9:06:00 AM PDT
- Tonyp said...
But Will, What if you are obsessed with beautiful clothes, shoes, shirts, ties suits, Jackets, slacks etc.. This is my hobby and I love it. I buy MTM, OTR if it fits well etc.. I keep accumulating shoes all the time. I don't think it will stop. I can afford it. But is that good?

When I think about spending a great amount of money the first thing that comes to my mind is always shoes. I can say is the best money spent. I am still wearing shoes that are in my wardrobe for easily more than ten years (I like your Alden brand and I have a few, but when we talk about shoes, England comes first)
- June 26, 2008 at 10:22:00 AM PDT
- Sean Tierney said...
Another thought is that - especially early on - there are some suits that can be worn year round. I have two suits that are really fall/winter only, and another two that are perfect for the hottest summer days. The other three can work year-round - one being acceptable for a summer evening/night, but not during the day. I wear suits usually three times a week, but I also travel a lot so my suits get beat up more than I'd like and need frequent cleaning / pressing.
- June 26, 2008 at 1:11:00 PM PDT
- M. Fan said...
In preparing a wardrobe for my first year as a lawyer, I've invested in many more sportcoats than you suggest. By the time I start, I'll have five sportcoats and three suits. Given how lawyers are expected to dress at big firms these days, I figure that I will wear sportcoats 90 percent of the time I'm wearing anything more than a shirt and pants. I don't imagine I will be required to wear a suit very often.
Your strategy is smarter though. I will never [i]need[/i] to wear a sportcoat--even though I [i]can[/i] wear them more often than suits. - June 26, 2008 at 7:45:00 PM PDT
- El Aristócrata said...
I have been told that suits made with Loro Piana can be worn both seasons
- June 27, 2008 at 12:12:00 AM PDT
- Matt said...
To anyone reading who is still young enough to only just be embarking on the joys of building a new wardrobe what suited me well was to trawl every charity shop I could find for the best clothes I could find in them. It is possible to find bespoke suits, shits and ties a well as many high quality items from makers such as Airey and Wheeler (vintage) and Turnbull and Asser. If you are just starting out on the road to sartorial nirvana these purchases can allow you to make mistakes, learn what is good and bad, learn what makes a garment great and discover what can make you look good on a budget that is less than one off the peg suit from most department stores. Though many of the items you buy may not fit exactly as you want, and may have even had someone die in them you can soon learn how to distinguish quality and discover why a Turnbull tie is better than one from the supermarket without having to spend more than you would to buy a supermarket tie. You can be told a hundred times how fantastic it is to wear a well made, pure silk tie but you actually need to try it and if you are on a budget the Charity shop will allow you to do this. Plus you will be doing your bit to support local causes and charities. I am not advocating just wearing someone else's clothes but they can complement the early stages of wardrobe building.
- June 27, 2008 at 3:01:00 AM PDT
- Stephen said...
Matt, I employ that strategy myself. I also like to go to estate, and tax auctions. I've made out with some pretty nice deals on cuff links, and the odd item that way. I'm in my last year of University and am trying to build a high finance career so, conservative suits are in my future. I regularly dress up about the only thing I do purchase at retail is shirts; on sale of course. I'm thinking about doing a few mytailor.com shirts since Will suggested them to me last year.
- June 27, 2008 at 9:37:00 AM PDT
- Jeffrey said...
Sorry for the belated thanks for posting my question. I've been very busy here in Japan. Your advice in your comments to this question as well as your other blogs certainly contribute to my sartorial education.
I'll follow advice, though I will have to tweak it a bit when it comes time to get married. Then I'll follow Manton's excellent advice he posted at AAAC and LL. While someday I certainly do want a dinner suit, for in the distant future wedding I'll wear a bespoke morning suit, which I'm sure will not come cheap. - June 28, 2008 at 10:18:00 PM PDT

Atlanta Baroque Presents Handel's Messiah in its Entirety
Roswell Presbyterian Church, 755 Mimosa Blvd, Roswell, GA | Get Directions »
Holidays in Dublin
The Atlanta Baroque Orchestra under the direction of Julie Andrijeski joins with the Georgia Tech Chamber Choir to perform Handel's Messiah in its entirety, using the scores from Handel's original production in Dublin, Ireland in 1742.
Four of the finest Baroque solo singers in the nation are being flown in to perform:
Soprano Teresa Wakim (Boston)
Alto Katherine Growdon (Boston)
Tenor Aaron Sheehan (Baltimore)
Bass Mischa Bouvier (New York)
Tickets are $25 at the door, $20 online in advance, with discounts for groups, seniors and students.
This same concert will also be given on Friday, November 30, at First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta.
Over the centuries, Messiah has become very different than Handel originally intended, with extra instruments tacked on after the fact, and larger and larger orchestras and choirs. The Atlanta Baroque is taking Messiah back to its roots, with the original arrangements and instrumentation, and a small choir.
The ABO and soloists perform the ornamentation and improvised musical turns that were used in Handel's time and which have tended to be discarded by "modern" orchestras and singers.
This will be a rare opportunity to hear Messiah, all two and a half hours of it, as close to Handel's original intention as we can get today. Join us!

A New Tailor Joins The Mix
I sent Mina Adamo of Napoli su Misura a length of linen for a jacket the other day. Ms. Adamo of course is the leader of the Neapolitan tailoring house that is this year's overnight success among the iGents.
The nice thing about Napoli su Misura in addition to periodic visits to San Francisco is that they seem comfortable with minimally lined jackets. That has been the one area of tailoring where I have had a little trouble. None of the Savile Row houses that have made clothing for me cares to do them and Chan does not either, so, assuming the first one is a success, Mina and her crew will be my linen specialists for a while. First fitting in November, hopefully.
While that is going on, Patrick Chu at W. W. Chan, who had been making my summer clothes, is working on the cloth in the photo, the first of a couple of mid-weight worsted odd jackets for spring and fall City wear. That is an 11 ounce lambswool from Harrison's Moonbeam book and the second will be a gray 10 ounce bell hopsack from Scabal. Chan has just about perfected my pattern at this point, however I still have them give me a fitting. There is always a sleeve that needs rotation if nothing else and it is so much more satisfying to have that sort of thing done before the "completed" jacket arrives.
Giving up that perfected pattern is the hardest thing about starting with a new tailor, however I have seen enough of Mina's work over the past year to be comfortable adding her to the mix. It just makes sense to have firms specialize in the things they know how to do well.

Did the Savile Row boys ever give a clear reason for avoiding them?
I suspect that since they are accustomed to making lined jackets they are not comfortable with having all their unfinished seams and what-not on show, which it seams to me (pun) is all too common on a Savile Row which is rattling out suits.
But what about this: Savile Row tailor Steven Hitchcock (who visits the U.S...

There is not the demand for it in Englnd since the weather is milder, and it is more work as the seams must be finished.
Glad to see Mr. Hitchcock trying one though. - July 25, 2011 at 9:39:00 AM PDT

I'm surprised WW Chan are unwilling to tackle unlined jackets. You would think a firm based in Hong Kong, with Shanghai roots, would be versed in that sort of thing.
Do you know if any of the other Hong Kong tailors are open to taking on unlined jackets? - July 25, 2011 at 7:58:00 PM PDT

One of my Savile Row tailors, after some discussion, has made quarter-lined productes for me from tropical worsteds - of excellent quality.

Jeweler's Jam
Materials: (1) Helmer drawer unit on casters, (1) Vika Amon table top, (1) Hyllis shelving unit, (2) discontinued Ikea shoe racks, (1) Lack shelf, (1) Kolja mirror. The only extra hardware needed were some standard screws, drywall anchors and four small L shaped brackets.
Description: I design jewelry and work from my bedroom, where I already have a huge Vika Gruvan desk, an overflow of bookcases and no extra room to spare. So this action-packed little corner was pretty much my only option.
I also had no cash at the moment (Hey, not all of us can be Tiffany) so buying brand new furniture was out of the question, all the Ikea items I used were bought on Craigslist. I think I spent less than $40 total including hardware.
Here's the steps so you too can do the jam:
First, I assembled the Helmer drawer unit. Then, using its height as a guide, I attached the L shaped brackets to the wall. (As you can see in the picture, I used some left over curtain brackets from another project to keep costs down.)
Next, I assembled the Hyllis shelving unit. Here is where I had to work some magic. The table top is wider than the shelves so in order to slide it in place without having to cut the table down to size I had to invert the Hyllis' legs. This seriously compromises its stability, so I had to anchor it to the wall. After that, I slid the table top in place and secured it to the brackets with screws.
Then I hung the mirror (No, I'm not -that- vain, I just need to look at my work!) and the Lack shelf. As an extra bonus I installed a wire/tool dispenser made of L shaped brackets and a steel rod (Costs $2.50 to make). Since I still needed more shelving I added the shoe racks underneath the table. I bought two of them and stacked them, going under and around the Hyllis unit, then secured them with screws.
And that's pretty much it.
Hey, it is not the sexiest of units, but it works for me. Plus it was $40 bucks. Beat that.
~ Sunny H., Chicago

Wow, colour me impressed. Plus i love your sassy description of how you went about making it, hahaha.
I do have one suggestion, as a fellow jewelry maker: at some point you might want to figure out a way to jack that marvelous hack up another 6 inches or so, so that the surface is chest height, like a real jeweler's bench. (Or is it already? hard to tell from your pic, hmmm.... )Save yourself the neck strain from bending over staring at tiny little sparkly things for hours ;)- AnonymousAugust 29, 2010 12:20 PM
Great ideas for Jewelers. esp. with small spaces.

Sea-harvested brown algae is known to have skin benefits and previously has been associated with an increase in skin elasticity. Fucoidan, found in brown macroalgae such as Undaria pinnatifida, is a unique marine ingredient. It is a sulfated, fucose-rich polymer that in nature, protects the seaweed against a range of external stresses, including UV radiation and environmental contaminants such as marine-borne pathogens and viruses.

"Slutwalk", a controversial rally aiming to counter the claim that revealing clothing provokes rape and sexual assault, will come to Jerusalem on Friday unless it is stopped by conservative and religious elements in the city. On such rally has already occurred in Tel Aviv.
The march is set to begin at Paris square and arrive at Gan HaSus. The march began in April 2011, after a Canadian police officer recommended that a way women could reduce rapes and sexual assaults is to "avoid dressing like sluts".
Approximately 160 people are anticipated at the Friday march, which has been authorized by law enforcement. However, Jerusalem Deputy Mayor Yossi Deutsch told Yediot Aharonot that he intends to prevent the rally, the idea of which left him "shocked, ashamed and disgusted", particularly because many of the women objecting to the notion of being treated as sex objects because of their attire will be walking in the rally in revealing and suggestive clothing.

The necklace looks lovely. The chain seems well made and the bar design is simple and elegant. It'll be a graduation gift, and hopefully the recipient will like it as I do.
Not the quality I expected. Chain was very light
I love it! It is small and subtle, but I have received countless compliments and prefer less bulky necklaces. It is such a unique item, and I love that I can adjust the length of it as well.
This is very nice especially for the price!!

The guided-missile destroyer USS McFaul passes through the Bosphorus Strait, Istanbul, Turkey, in this AP file photo dated Friday, Aug. 22, 2008.
Updated: Wednesday, 12 Sep 2012, 9:41 PM EDT
Published : Wednesday, 12 Sep 2012, 7:06 PM EDT
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Pentagon ordered two warships to the Libyan coast in the aftermath of the attack in Benghazi that killed the U.S. ambassador and three others, U.S. officials said Wednesday.
Photos: US Ambassador killed in Libya
One destroyer, the USS Laboon, moved to a position off the coast Wednesday, and the USS McFaul is en route and should be stationed off the coast within days. The officials said the ships, which carry Tomahawk cruise missiles, do not have a specific mission. But they give commanders flexibility to respond to any mission ordered by the president.
Pentagon spokesman George Little said: "Without commenting on specific ship movements, the United States military regularly takes precautionary steps when potential contingencies might arise in a given situation. That's not only logical in certain circumstances, it's the prudent thing to do."
There have been four destroyers in the Mediterranean for some time. These moves will increase that to five.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss troop movements.

My vacuum has to start in 2 minutes. But I will take a break (long break?) and log on. Thanks! | ||||
Started. Only going to be about an hour today. Use the link in the first post and scroll down past the first 3 pictures. | ||||
She should have a TV show! Wouldn't she be great on her own show? | ||||
If she did, I might actually use up my scraps instead if buying more fqs and yardages. Love that she will piece things together if her units are a little short. | ||||
I still have not had a chance to watch. Itried a couple of times, but all I get is a circle twirling around...does it take forever to load? Am I just too impatient? Or is there a secret that I don't know about? | ||||
My cable and Firefox loads it pretty quickly for me. And the ads come up with NO waiting. This time there weren't any interruptions or the freezings that I sometimes get. | ||||
Angela, you are going to the site @at the time Bonnie's @ quiltcam? Do you get a black box w/ "Live" in lower right corner? click on the box or maybe theres that "play" triangle...I suppose it will depend on which browser you're using as to what it all looks like. That should do it...Google Chrome browser does handle it better, but the others I've tried do let me in. ~karen | ||||

Located 5 minutes from the metro. Apartment in a quiet, large and modern
Bien situé à 5min du métro. Appartement au calme, grand et moderne
Missing some basic utensils such as e.g. blade, opens cans, trash bin, tablecloth...Lost water drain of the sink of the bathroom.Very bad the wi fi service. The signal was low and intermittent service.The neighborhood very quiet although a little away from the main tourist attractions.The apartment is very comfortable and well decorated.
Faltaban algunos utensilios básicos como por ejemplo cuchilla, abre latas, cubo para basura, mantel... Perdía agua el desagüe del lavabo del baño. Muy malo el servicio wi fi. La señal era baja y el servicio intermitente. El barrio muy tranquilo aunque un poco alejado de las principales ...atracciones turísticas. El apartamento muy cómodo y bien decorado.
The internet/wifi in the house was unreliable, and that was an important feature which ideally we would have liked to have used more. Otherwise, it was great!
Dear Customer, OH thanks you for your comments and takes them into consideration. We confirm that the Internet has been revised and has had its speed increased.
Good flat for a week end, good location. I would book the same if I go back to Barcelona. There is also a driver available to pick you up at the airport for 65 (5 pers) euros which is very convenient!

Housing corresponds perfectly to the description and it is very well built.However, it should be noted that the building is particularly noisy because of the lack of soundproofing (including old elevator) and the presence over unscrupulous occupants (22 h 03 pm noise). Despite the nights somewhat ...hectic because of the sound environment, our stay was very pleasant because of a very suitable apartment. The location of this accommodation located close to the metro and the bus allows to easily visit Barcelone.Le home service and departure were managed effectively by our interlocutors.
Le logement correspond parfaitement au descriptif et il est très bien aménagé. Par contre, il faut noter que l'immeuble est particulièrement bruyant du fait du manque d'insonorisation (vieil ascenseur notamment) et la présence au dessus d'occupants peu scrupuleux (bruit de 22h à 03h). Malgré... les nuits quelques peu mouvementées à cause de l'environnement sonore, notre séjour a été très agréable du fait notamment d'un appartement très adapté. La localisation de ce logement situé près du métro et du bus permet de visiter aisément Barcelone. Le service d'accueil et de départ ont été gérés efficacement par nos interlocuteurs.
All very well, but when you hand over the keys and collect the deposit had to wait 45 minutes.Asked us forgiveness for the delay but...
Todo muy bien ,pero a la hora de entregar las llaves y recoger el deposito tubimos que esperar 45 minutos.Nos pidieron perdon por el retraso pero.....
Just add your question in the comments box below and we'll get back to you very soon.

text: The Show Catwalk Fashion Shows Spring/Summer 2006 Ready-To-Wear Betty Jackson 19 September 2005 VETERAN British designer Betty Jackson promises that "life is one long Roman holiday for spring/summer 2006" and she presented plenty of evidence of it on her catwalk this afternoon. With Jemima Khan (who set off a paparazzi strobe), Melanie Blatt and Nicole Appleton (clearly friends again these days), and Saffron Aldridge in the front row, it was a catalogue of summer sexy looks that the audience busily started making wish-lists from. These are clothes to flick your hair about and pretend you don't know the boys are watching your every move: sweet white cotton dresses with enlarged broderie anglais hems, red chiffon sundresses with draw-strung empire lines, tailored short shorts and fitted, cropped jackets that fan out in pleats over the bottom. Colours? The red of the ripest tomato, brown (for a satin trench), cream, pale gold and sun-drenched lime. Favourites? A gold-flecked tweed that made ultra glam statements of a sexy trouser suit, mannish trousers held up by wide satin ribbons and one pretty white dress with a little bow under each boob. Jackson's experience is revealed by her extensive repertoire of styling details – from the waffle brocade skirt suit and huge bowed bags to the glittering embroidery on washed-out aubergine and plum vest-and-short combos and the marble prints that made up the finale, the impression was that this is a gorgeously affluent wealth of ideas.

Now for the Savvy WordPress bloggers!
Here's the most important thing to realize about using WordPress. It can be used as a website whether you wish to blog or not. Using this marvelous CMS can give you the pages you need for a site with the ability to edit the content on those pages. Using this along with the correct settings, and the fabulous plugins available, you can have one smoking hot, trafffic-friendly site.
Adding some of these KEY PLUGINS will help your new site/blog **EXPLODE**
Adding and Activating Plugins:
Akismet – Ends tiresome and endless spam. You'll need a key, so just follow the instructions.
All in one SEO pack – this will explode your SEO if done correctly on every static page and every blog post. Adds a title, description and keywords area to every page and post. It appears down below the area for content. Look for it and don't forget it.
Captcha - Adds an anti-spam form to the end of the comments so someone must fill that in to add a comment.
Dynamic Sidebars - Once installed you can select different widgets in your sidebar for different sections of your site/blog. Let's say you want your Facebook Fan box to appear only on your about us page, and you want your Recent Tweets only on Services… or maybe an opt-in form from your newsletter / blast company on all pages. You just select each one and tell it which page to be on or multiple pages. (It is a bit complicated, so only savvy users should tackle this one, without help.)
Facebook Like Box Widget - Adds a full Facebook boxed area in your sidebar showing latest posts on Facebook as well as the fans. Can be adjusted for width and length so it fits your sidebar design.
NextGEN Gallery – Just one of the many gallery plugins available to add a gallery space to your site. Be careful though if you've selected a theme that might already have a gallery function. You won't need this and wouldn't necessarily work anyway.
Quotes Collection - Once you've added a variety of quotes, they can rotate around the site in a designated spot.
Recent Tweets - Will display a live stream of the tweets coming in on your handle.
Rotating Headers - You can have a slide show with changing headers, but the images must be exactly the same in shape, size, and resolution and maybe only one spot is different like a blurb of text. Then you can shuffle them how you want them.
Sharethis – Adds the share buttons under each page and post so other can share your content.
Sociable – Adds the follow buttons for social media.
Social Media Widget does a similar thing.
TinyMCE Advanced – Expands the toolbar for pages and posts giving you assorted new icons and tools such as, table functions, special characters (©, TM, etc…) and others.
Tweet Old Post – This is one power-packed plugin. Once set up, it will generate Tweets of all the posts you've written around the clockfor you. I have mine set for every 4 hrs. So it's tweeting all the time and giving life to older posts that might not be read. My Twitter followers have increased quite a bit since I installed this one. The post must have limited styles to come in cleanly. If they were styled beforehand, then import, but then each post will need to be adjusted before it can go live.
WordPress Importer: You can import old or other posts from another blog, but be careful because if those old or different posts had strange styling, they can screw up your new site's theme. The posts must have limited styles to come in cleanly.
WPtouch - If your blog has a very neat design it may not translate exactly as you'd like for a smart phone. So WPtouch strips it down and just shows the content.
Video for advanced plugins:
In addition, there are all kinds of themes that can add functionality to your site, but study the themes well so you know that down the road when it's time to upgrade, if you want to, it won't mess up your site. (IMPORTANT! Just because it says a new version is available and to upgrade, doesn't mean you should. If you have a custom theme design you don't need to do this.) Here's an example: I wanted to install "Tweet old post" into one of my blogs, but it couldn't work unless I upgraded the blog first.
So the first thing you want to do before you upgrade is log into your hosting company and export your content so if something goes wrong, you have a copy of it all. Actually you should do this often anyway, so it's never lost.
Then flip the switch and upgrade, if you need to adjust things, be prepared with available time. Once all is well, you can install those new plugins.

Laurent Fignon
The Vuelta, 1983, and pre-race favourite Bernard Hinault is struggling with crippling knee pain, all the while maintaining a mask of normality to the opposition. Renault team director Cyrille Guimard calls on second year professional Laurent Fignon to launch The Badger in a final bid to wrestle the maillot amarillo from the shoulders of Julián Gorospe.
My task was to burn off the opposition on the lower slopes of the Serranillos. I had to go absolutely flat out. It was simple: I hit the climb as if there was no tomorrow, on the big ring for five or six kilometres, with Hinault on my wheel. The Vuelta was won and lost here; the final act of the drama was about to unfold. Lajaretta was struggling; Gorospe was hanging on. But soon I could see that, overwhelmed by the speed, Gorospe was completely in the red. The fateful moment had come. I was about to witness close-up what the astonishing Breton was capable of, and I saw the final flourish on the masterpiece. Hinault dealt the coup de grâce and it was as if, suddenly, he had forgotten everything. He seemed oblivious to the pain, the injury that was affecting a little more of his flesh each day, his adversaries, and even his doubts. All that remained was a man in his prime who was unleashed by the strength of his character. He was such a proud devil. He epitomised the way in which the rebelliousness of an exceptional champion could become a sublime display of raw emotion. Hinault went away with no teammates, with Vincente Belda on his wheel, in an epic, unreal attack over the last eighty kilometres. We had turned the Vuelta upside down and cast a spell on everyone.

Two months later, having helped Hinault to victory in Spain, the 22-year-old Fignon became the youngest rider since 1933 to win the Tour. France had a new hero and the cycling world had discovered one of the truly great champions.
