actually that is quite the misnomer as this is a poor subject to kick off a men's fashion blog with, but its important to think of your appearance in terms of a lifestyle and not just that you clean up nicely for a black tie affair.
I will probably reference this a lot over the coming weeks but everything I ever needed to know about grooming and appearance I learned from my grandfather. The man never owned a pair of gym shoes/jeans/tshirt in his life and I often reflect back on WWMGFW (what would my grand father wear).
Tonight I had to change out two tires on my car, and while I keep quite the clean car, this isn't a exactly a white glove chore. I have found as of late my minimum car work dress code is a striped pair of DKNY shorts and a black polo. I am happy to say that I swapped out the two tires in 25 minutes which isn't exactly NASCAR times but I completed the task cleanly.
I am working hard on building a wardrobe that has an appropriate outfit for any scenario and garage work is a big part of that. Eventually I do want to get two mechanic jumpsuits, but in the short term, I did pick up a beautiful denim chore jacket from Japan that is fleece lines which will be perfect once the fall hits.
