So that's pretty amazing.

Wow! Historical pictures of famous people and links to the clothing they wore. Which you can actually buy. Some serious work has gone into this. And it doesn't even seem to be monetized - the links are without any affiliate referrer information

  That actually really sucks that it does not have any descriptions, "about us" or anything. As a non-fashion person myself I didn't understand what the site was about you I read your comment. I can see how this would be a great resource for fashion minded people. Ps. If the owner of the site need help monetizing, let me know, I can help.

That's nice and all, but I fail to see what's wrong with my Airwalks/Sketchers, jeans, black tee shirt and charcoal-colored hoodie.

I would avoid the William Faulkner look, but this site is wonderful. It makes me want to wear more men's clothing.

Great content, but a really badly put together site.

I'm happy to see a fashion site that isn't about bare chested young males in sexual positions. It's a nice change to see a fashion blog for stylish influential men in good clothes. Thank you for the post!

For those interested, the site's run and curated by Roxana Altamirano. She has great taste. http://putthison.com/post/655938745/our-fam-roxana-from-nerd-boyfriend-breaks-down http://putthison.com/post/655938745/our-fam-roxana-from-nerd...

  How do you know this? This site needs an about page with links.

Photos are nice. At least a little text to let people know what's going on would make it even better. Not everyone has context right off the bat (and people who click through search results aren't necessarily going to read your clever domain name).
