5 Timeless Retro Looks For Men Today

Last week, I wrote an article about 5 retro looks for women today. I got a couple suggestions that I do the same for men, so here we go!

1. Skinny Tie

Ok, so you definitely don't want to be like Don Draper, but don’t you want to look like him? Whether it’s a fancy night out or a more casual event, a skinny tie looks refined and sharp.


2. Oxford Shoes

You can opt for a more ornamented look, or a finished, flat-leather look—either way, these add a classic touch to your outfit. A pop of color on the sole throws in a more modern twist.


3. Chuck Taylor All Stars

The most well-known converse. Pretty much everyone just calls them converse and we all know what they mean. I’m pretty sure these never go out of style; there are definitely cycles—Chucks were huge when I was in 5th and 6th grade—but no matter what, you can’t go wrong with a classic black, a fresh white, or a personal favorite color. I adore my light blue all-stars.


4. Wool Trench Coat

Channel your inner Mad-Man or Sherlock Holmes. Or, just keep warm on a chilly day. A wool coat like this in tan or brown is the perfect mix of polished and easy-going. Maybe you’re a struggling artist or a professor or a business man—the coat works on anyone.


5. Leather Jacket

If you want something a little more weather-proof and perhaps a bit more edgy, choose a black leather jacket. You can pretend to be ’50’s Marty McFly, which is a definite win.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
