Anonymous asked: pretty sure the first item in the build-a-kit campaign would be LAS's shawl.
Anonymous asked: Ah, I just assumed since government officials seem never to wear them.
Anonymous asked: Does "the presidential" mean not wearing a pocket square?
Anonymous asked: I know the tradition is to have the pocket square and tie compliment one another, or have the pocket square really stand out, but in a very pared down outfit (navy suit, blue shirt, black knit) would you match the square to the shirt? Or is that a bit naff?

Anonymous asked: Know where I can find some slim leather boots. Preferably something that goes above the ankle and stay somewhat fitted the whole way. Looking for a regular leather sole too. Thanks!
Anonymous asked: Came across one of question submitted by another person and I kind of have a follow up question regarding suede boots. I'm trying to revamp my wardrobe and start dressing "better". I'm kind of torn between Clarks Desert Boots vs. the JCrew McCalisters as my first big purchase. I know the J Crew version is a little more on the pricey side, but is there a reason? Is one better...
