Weekly Wrap Up 8/23 – 8/27

Weekly Wrap Up 8/23 – 8/27, 2010

Deal of the Week – J. Crew Rugged Twill Messenger Bag – $128.00

Extremely reasonable for what you get.

The Rugged Twill Weekend bag is also pretty nice, but I still can’t believe they aren’t charging more for the work bag.  This is, after all, a retailer that knows how to ride its own popularity wave.  See their $200 Timex.

Most Discussed Post – For and Against.  Should you ever wear a visible undershirt?

There is obviously a huge difference here.

Even if you limit your visible tees to only under polos (not oxfords, ever), and the polo is a sleek and slim Express Signature, and the sleeves are cut off of the tee so they’d never poke out from under the sleeves, and the polo you like shows too much of your pasty chest with dark stringy chest hair… and even then?  You’re apparently not supposed to.  (Man, you wear a white tee under something once, and you just get killed for it.)
