Six Staples to Supplement your Sartorial Education[/size
These blogs are a bit advanced, but for the man steeped in the basics of style, they are a welcome respite from the world of ever changing fashion. In these sites you’ll find timeless advice, real world experiences with tailors, and the wearing of the world’s finest clothing for men.
A Suitable Wardrobe.http://asuitablewardrobe.com/
Blogger Will Boehlke has tried more bespoke tailors than almost any gentleman out there; lucky for us, he captures his experience and observations on his blog.
Permanent Style.http://www.permanentstyle.co.uk/
Simon Crompton is a gifted writer with a great eye. His mission statement “Permanent style has cycles that last decades, not months. It is about weaves and lengths, about subtle ideas of proportion and balance. It lacks good journalism. This blog supplies it.”http://www.permanentstyle.co.uk/
The Trad.http://thetrad.blogspot.com/
“Not as good as it was. Better than it will be” Written in the style of a poet, The Trad is full of great quotes and observations. My favorite: “You can tell me I shouldn’t wear it – – but no one will tell me I can’t.”
Sleevehead.http://sleevehead.blogspot.com/
Notes on the craft and business of men’s apparel and great insights on tailors and tailoring technique.
Kempt.http://www.getkempt.com/ Describes itself as “your man on the inside helping you navigate the sartorial deep.” A bit fashion forward; I enjoy its change of pace.
Where to Start? Three Style & Grooming Libraries
With free information compiled by experts, these links are a great place to build a basic understanding of men’s classic style and proper grooming. Start your sartorial journey here. Why did I list them last? Well, I have a personal stake in one and didn’t want to appear too biased.

The definitive guide to formal wear on the web, bar none.
