    Can a man appreciate vintage and be metro?

    I too think of the term metro sexual as effiminant men and a lot of it has to do with the media, the fashion industry, etc who have helped to create that image. When I see a well groomed man that is not overly groomed, I just see them as very handsome, so I don't automatically assume they are...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Well I went all out today and even shocked myself when I looked in the mirror. I had on a 40's day dress with a 40's ladies WWII looking cape coat over it. I wore a pair of Mary Jane shoes and a 40's hat with my hair curled underneath and also had a vintage straw purse with embroidered...

    Pink, for one slight second I thought the same thing when I saw it. It looks like one of those thong things you see at Fredricks of Hollywood for men. :eek: Not that I ever go into that store or anything. :o ;)

    Thanks for the info. The reason why I thought it was more modern is because when I did an eBay search, all I really saw were more 60's or so hats. I knew the name when I saw the box though. My radar kicked into high gear and I knew right then and there that it was worth the $3.00 before I...

    Not that I am aware of, a couple of the older ones don't have tags though but I am thinking Schiaparelli was more popular in the 60's to 80's. Well I think I found out what the black thingie on the right of my accesories photo is. It is a little purse they used to carry a small purse for...

    Can a man appreciate vintage and be metro?

    Yup, that is all we are to the marketing gurus in the fashion and beauty industries. They have done this for decades with women and made half hazard attempts with men. Now men can chose from dozens of jars of special creams, hair shampoo, shaving creams, etc. It is working too. Both my sons...

    After I was so excited about my hats that I almost caused an accident, I decided to go to my thrift. I wasn't really into it though because I was too exicted about my hats. This is what I bought. Vintage pocket book w/ bakelite. Needs to be cleaned up and polished. Vintage...

    I SCORED BIG TIME today ladies. First off, I went to a yard sale and found nothing, it was so pathetic I don't even know why they put an add in the paper. I went to another one and yet again, nothing. The 3rd one I was very excited about because it was at an antique store and a...

    Sadly I didn't get them on eBay, but through a regular vintage online store that doesn't take returns. :rolleyes: Oh well, lesson learned. I think going foward I am only going to buy from actual stores where I can try things on. lol

    Can a man appreciate vintage and be metro?

    Speaking of shaving, I bought my son the new Gillette razor called Fusion and he loves it. He says it gives the best shave he has ever had w/ a lot less damage than the gets w/ other razors. The only downfall on the Fusion is the fact that the cartridges are super expensive and are often all...

    What Were You Like As A Teen?

    Can a man appreciate vintage and be metro?

    I agree with that concept about personality and character. I do think I would kind of freak though if their skin care regimine is more extenstive than my own because mine is fairly extensitve. :D. I work with some men who I consider overly groomed and they all share one trait in common which...
