Really nice to discover your blog! I’m the fashion editor of http://www.revistasintetica.com.br, a brazilian website. Can I put your blog this week at the website?
I can’t shake the feeling that if this gentleman wasn’t attractive, his outfit wouldn’t be appealing to the people who’ve commented on him thus far. I’m straddling the fence on this one. I do like certain pieces of his outfit, but together they all somehow “mute” each other out.
Anyone care to elaborate? I’m open to be proven wrong.
positive_negative, I feel that the complete opposite is true – if this gentleman wasn’t wearing that outfit, he wouldn’t appear, at least in my eyes, nearly a attractive as he does. His style is certainly exuding that geek-chic vibe (more emphasis on the “geek” than the “chic”) that I find so alluring. If it wasn’t for the clothes I probably wouldn’t give him a second look.
he is CUUTE! what kills the outfit is the socks & the shoes. what better shoes could he have worn??? i’m not good w/men’s fashion, so i can’t visualize.

He might pass for Conner Kent (aka Superboy) but Clark Kent, nah, this guy just doesn’t have the right presence for that.

Dammnit.. someone beat me to the Clark Kent comment, but seriously maybe it’s he glasses and his hair or maybe that secretive expression on his face.

comment4u- I don’t quite understand. Do you mean he appears un-trustworthy. I’m slow.

He’s adorable – in an unassuming, modest way of course (which is very appealing). Love the lavender shirt too.
