Loved it! Damage was most certainly done to Boy's AMEX card, which is currently cooling off in the the freezer section of the fridge in our minibar at the Four Seasons Hotel. Your name was spoken at the House of Mashburn and all sang your praises! Thanks for the recommendation.

And thanks for the suggestions regarding how I should view myself and what kind of self-image I should develop. You are correct. I DO need to view myself as an effete bag of bones. I’ll be humbler from now on. <br /><br />But let me just say that when the T-levels fall enough to be an issue, I’ll be on the replacement drug like a rat on a damn Cheeto. But for now, my bony little ass won’t require ‘em. I can still hang a wet beach towel on mine.<br /> <br />ADGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16612897500610475937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818519199109196200.post-15713083295033715042013-04-25T22:58:30.928-04:002013-04-25T22:58:30.928-04:00FYI, I'm the nut-crunched one and I may be the...FYI, I'm the nut-crunched one and I may be the only person here with a more gangly-teenage-girl build than you. But shirts don't stay tucked into Sid's hip slung khakis, and that's a fact, jack. Love his stuff in theory, and the items where fit is irrelevant, like his ties, are damn near perfect. If only instead of York St. Press had taken a half-step in this direction.

Being scrawny does tend to incline one toward being thin, but being a thin-boned fancy man doesn't give you an excuse to make the "chubby" remarks. Don't think of yourself as being thin: think of yourself as being, as mentioned, scrawny, effeminate, delicate, fragile, and one who should be more circumspect in his word choice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818519199109196200.post-21145170515631011642013-04-25T18:55:33.624-04:002013-04-25T18:55:33.624-04:00Flo...the blue/green boxes are Edward Green shoes....Flo...the blue/green boxes are Edward Green shoes...not Sid Mashburn ones.

Bought a couple of shirts online, very nice quality, and your right - the price point is correct. Everything I have read about them leads me to believe they are straight up nice people with amazing taste. There is a cool youtube video of Sid giving a presentation to local business entrepreneurs in Atlanta. Its worth checking out.

I haven't tried his jackets, so I can't comment there, but I find his trousers to be nut crunching and crack cleaving. Similarly, the dress shirts were just a bit too Euro body-con for me--much slimmer than BB's slim fit shirts. His ties, and accessories generally, are awesome.
