Hey, I have a question.

First, do you know a good, affordable place to find men's hats? All the ones I've found on my own make me look like an archeologist/vigilante or K-Fed.

Amazing Men!

Really? ADD is my favorite, but I have an affinity for bright colors.

Also, Christian, did you notice how many of the dudes were smoking? Heh.

Grace said...

Andrew, what kind of hat are we talking? Like a Bob Dylan hat? A John Wayne hat? A Pimp Master General hat?

Thanks for the well-dressed eye candy! It's quite cool how you are opening people's eyes towards men's fashion. You don't see too much of that nowadays...

SO! I have to say that this is the first time I have stumbled across your blog and I am very impressed with this mens line up.

I've recently become more interested in XY fashion and your list of hommes is wonderful. In particular, THE COOL KIDS! Because I love their style and their music and when I saw their picture my little lid just flipped.

Bravo! Please keep it up!

Grace said...

Thanks, Jessica!


The Cool Kids are the shit. I listen to Bassment Party on repeat!

Grace,

See, that's a big question for me.
Until now, I've always worn baseball caps. They're easy to find and usually cheap. They don't cover my ears, though, and they tend to leave pretty noticable hat head. I'd also rather not look like I just shot Liberty Vallance. Maybe something in between, like a Bob Dylan hat? But where to find a fedora that doesn't make people think I'm in an emo band?
