Not sure if you should wear that Tommy Bahama shirt out tonight? The magnificent bastard is here to help. Go ahead. Ask away.

Relax, big spender, we want your knowledge, not your credit card info. If you know about something you think we should know about, let us know (so we can then pretend that we knew about it all along.) Send a tip.

    Ask the MB: Good Casual Blazers

    Q: Is there any such thing as a casual, not-too-expensive, good-looking sport coat than can be worn with nice jeans (e.g. AG)? Something suitable for the warm months ahead.
    --Gabriel


    A: There are three simple but inalienable commandments we observe when buying a casual blazer, and that makes finding one harder than you'd think:

    1. Thou shalt be machine washable (and preferably machine dryable, too)
    2. Thou shalt have two buttons
    3. Thou shalt be free of shoulder-enhancing pads

    This Prada Sport version in military green satisfies all three, and it's on sale now for $295. We think it will look great with AG jeans.
