Nicolas Cages National Treasure Outfits: Ranked.

I know what you're thinking: National Treasure, with its gripping action plot and stellar performances can't possibly have a noteworthy wardrobe IN ADDITION to being the greatest cinematic experience since Citizen Kane a fine mid 2000's tale of romance and adventure. But au contraire, mon ami.

You were wrong.... So wrong.



So without further ado, here's a ranked countdown of ALL of Nick Cage's suave 'fits from National Treasure



5. The Post-Treasure-Discovery Brown Corduroy Suit

Oh, we get it Nick.

You got the girl, you got your money, and now your too cool for school and showing off a little chest hair. While a fashionable ensemble for a windy 20004 November... clearly not your best work.



4. The Stealing the Declaration Tux

If you've got to steal the Declaration of Indepence, you've got to do it in style.

Dapper? Sure. But c'mon Cagey Boy.... Where's the pizzazz?



3.The Antarctic Snow Suit

Here we go.

You're fiending for your first clue, and finally rocking an outfit that says "hey clue, I know it's cold, but I'm ready for you.".... don't even get me started on that fur.

2. Clue-Huntin' Denim Jacket


I know what you're thinking-- We're halfway through this masterpiece film, we have some clues, the team chemistry is building, but when will the romance develop?

Luckily, one hour and nine minutes into National Treasure, NC Hammer finds himself with his babe co-star and fellow history lover, Abigail, played by Diane Kruger. Over this...interesting exchange.... at an Urban Outfitters (yes, they even pan across the sign) Nick dons his clue nappin' denim jacket and finally can get down to some serious clue hunting business... and letting this romance blossom.

1. Boom.


What are we stealin'? The Liberty Bell? The Mona Lisa? The moon? It doesn't matter. I can steal anything with this suit jacket white button down combo.

And besides, who even saw that Da Vinci Movie anyways? Tom Hanks-- feel free to square up with me at the Louvre and bring your fightin' gloves. There's only room for one receding hairline history-expert / high-security thief round these parts.

You might be wondering, are we striking power poses with one too many undone buttons, or solving the thousand year mystery of the Freemasons?

Does it matter. We're doing it with style.

And THAT is why Nicolas Cage is the true National Treasure.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
