Why I Wore It: I wore this outfit to a startup and know-how firm Christmas cocktail occasion.
I haven’t worn a bow tie in a few years. I used to put on them on a regular basis once I was main my renegade museum excursions on the Metropolitan Museum of Artwork.

The thought with the denims was to maintain it type of informal however dressy on high. The denims I’m shocked I nonetheless match into as I purchased them about 13 years in the past in New York Metropolis.
This occasion was numerous enjoyable, by the best way. I’m pointing right here at only a random piece of artwork that was displayed on this large mansion the place the occasion was.

Why I Wore It: I needed to embrace this outfit as a result of this picture type of went viral once I posted it on-line.
Whereas my outfit is cool, what folks actually appreciated (I’m guessing) was seeing this Christmas tree made out of books that this man had created.
What’s most spectacular is that there’s no single anchor. He’s solely utilizing the gravity and weights of the books to maintain it from all falling down.
All of us knew that the books might collapse at any second. Fortunately, they by no means did!
