So youve been invited to a wedding, and the invitation states that the dress code is black tie optional (or black tie encouraged)

Introduce new fabrics, new colors, and new styles and articles of clothing so that you're never a that guy. Figuring out who you are and what kind of stylish man you are is just as important as figuring out how to dress in your 30's
