Most Discussed Post – Don’t be a Dandy.  The difference between style and fashion

Psycho-Analyzation Fuel!

Actually going back to the previous Friday for this one since many of the comments carried well over into this week.  Most of the early comments were supportive of the position that drawing undue attention to yourself qualifies you as being a Dandy.  Then the comments started to drift towards Freudian psycho-analysis of why I don’t like hearing someone tell me: “You sure do like fashion!”    Interesting theories all around.  Bottom line is:  Dressing well for yourself and out of respect for others is one thing.  Being an attention whore is another.
