[Dappered | Letters to the Editor: Date Night Outfits, Jersey Knit Sportcoats, Sleeping, & more]() --------------------------------------------------------------- [Letters to the Editor: Date Night Outfits, Jersey Knit Sportcoats, Sleeping, & more](r/Dappered/~3/t8iE1KnmD4o/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email) Posted: 13 Sep 2017 02:00 PM PDT If you’ve got a style tip, question, or anything else you’d like to pass along, [you can send those in to joe@dappered.com](mailto:joe@dappered.com?subject=Mail bag). If you’d rather your question not be featured in a future mailbag, just go ahead and say so in your email. Want more than one average Joe’s (HA!) opinion? Check out our forum, [Threads](. Q: Date Night outfit in a more casual city? [Dappered.com]  I always seem to struggle with date night outfits. Last weekend, I treated my wife to a dinner at a very nice steakhouse in town. Dining out has changed however, at least here in Texas. Things are more casual. I probably would have worn dress slacks, a button down, and sport coat several years ago but now people are wearing jeans and sometimes even shorts out. While I’m not interested in shorts and wouldn’t condone anyone wearing shorts to a steakhouse, I’d prefer to look like I’m not headed to a business meeting. I ended up going with some dress chinos, button down, and sport coat and it worked but I felt like it was kind of boring. What are my options? -J.L. I hear you sir. One of my most favorite places to go when I’ve got some time off is a little ski town in the mountains (during the off season) and everyone dresses there like they just came off the river or the bike trail. No matter how nice the restaurant. And that doesn’t bother me, but, I can see where you’re coming from. I figure you’ve got two options. One? Dark wash denim and a sportcoat. (AKA the “business mullet.”) The second would be to look like you own the place [and wear a suit with no tie](. I’d argue that a suit with no tie, while technically more dressed up than slacks and a sportcoat, looks more cool and relaxed. Plus, you get to wear your suits more. And that’s hardly ever a bad thing. Give the suit sans tie look a shot. See if your wife will put on a nice dress. You guys will get stares, but the good kind. Q: How’s Nordstrom Rack Work? [Rare Nordstrom Rack Filson Find] I found a brown Filson Original Briefcase in my local (Austin) Nordstrom Rack. Price was $149.97! Might want to let the readers know? Or do Nordstrom rack’s carry different stock depending on the location? – Andrew C. First, that’s a hell of a deal. Well done. Second, Nordstrom Rack’s do carry very different stock depending on the location. It’s almost (but obviously not quite) like thrifting. Certain cities/neighborhoods are gonna have different stuff. It’s where the merchandise from regular Nordstrom stores goes if unwanted. So, the fact that a Filson Original made it to your local Nordstrom Rack in Austin doesn’t mean another Filson Original made it to the Nordstrom Rack in, say, Bakersfield. Doesn’t mean one isn’t there, but, with a price and item like that, it feels like a rare find. Q: What do I wear with Jersey Knit Sportcoats? I’ve got a jersey knit sportcoat, (it’s a grey, sweatshirt-standard color, not dark one like the ones Nordstrom has featured in the past couple of months), and I can’t for the life of me figure out what to wear it with – it hangs in my closet 99.9% of the time. It’s way too casual for anything nice, but I feel like it’s a little “trying too hard” when I wear it more casually. What do I wear it with? -Ryan N. Sneakers or chukkas. And jeans. And either a rumpled poplin button down or a t-shirt (if wearing a t-shirt with a casual sportcoat is your thing). They’re more casual than a chino blazer, but not by much. It’s still a jacket. But yeah, try it with a casual button down, jeans (doesn’t have to be super inky dark wash) and some Stan Smiths. And don’t worry, this’ll get easier once it cools off. Think of it less as a sweatshirt, and more as a cardigan. Just cut in a different way. Q: What’s with your Spring & Summer hatred? [What Joe thinks of summer.]( What’s with your hatred of Spring and Summer? [Reddit seem to think]( you despite those seasons. -Brian I don’t hate spring. Spring’s fine. It can stay. It’s summer that I hate. [But there are ways around that](. I think it comes down to a couple of factors. Are you a morning person? If you are, then you probably don’t like summer. It’s tough as hell to get a good nights rest, and thus, get up (comfortably) early when it’s blazing hot out and still sunny at 9:30pm at night. Also, there’s only so many clothes you can (legally) take off. Even in the dead of winter you have more options to dress well, and more importantly, be more physically comfortable. Q. Undershirts Have a question regarding undershirts… what are the best undershirts around at various price points? -Andrew C. So, [here’s what I think about undershirts](. See #2. I just don’t wear em’. Used to, but then I figured out: A. Cotton is garbage for managing sweat. It does the opposite of what many think it does. B. It’s better to figure out how to lower your overall sweat level than wear another shirt (even if it is a tech fabric undershirt, which is absolutely what I’d suggest if you have to have one on.) So tech fabric undershirts are by far the best if you’re gonna wear one. Also, if they start to pick up a stink over time? [Use a little white vinegar when you do the laundry](. Works wonders on workout/other tech & synthetic gear. Q. What to wear to a funeral? Question for you. What about events (or really, the event) that none of us want to be at? What about funerals? I have two suits and neither is appropriate for a funeral. So, what should I buy next? Black? Navy? Charcoal? -Josh C. First, we’re a weird species, aren’t we? The traditional American funeral is, with all apologies to those who are in the necessary business of taking care of our dead, the worst. The end of one life is sad enough. But the canned organ music, the musty interior of a funeral home, the open casket showing the waxy shell of what was the person we once loved, yet is now void of their spirit and energy and thus, NOT how you’d want to remember them? When I buy the farm, what’s left is all going, direct non-stop to organ and tissue donations, and then science. If some CSI student can learn from what was my body, rotting in a field, the information needed in order to solve the next serial killer’s code of abhorrent conduct in time to prevent another murder? Than that’ll be better than anything I did in this life. So yeah. Take my sorry ass and make some real use of it. Sorry. To answer the question, [charcoal should be the first suit you buy](, specifically because it’s appropriate for a funeral (and black suits are all but useless). Navy is still too showy at funerals. Wear a white shirt, black matte necktie, and black dress lace ups. Q. Seriously, how do you sleep at night? Your advice is so terrible. You recommend such ugly looking clothes. Seriously, how do you sleep at night? -M. On my right side, facing the wall, with a fan on. A little [ZMA]( never hurts either. Q. Abbreviated Words I’ve noticed you use ” em’ ” very regularly to describe the plural of about any article of clothing. I don’t object to the use of the abbreviated pronoun, however the repeated improper placement of the apostrophe is something I feel someone needs to address. As a rule, the apostrophe is inserted where the letters have been omitted from a word. In the case of “them”, then, it would be ” ’em ” ( the “t” and “h” are omitted ). It has begun to physically distress me whenever I come across it in a post (which I have said is often). If it was rarer, I could deal. -Brandon H. em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’ em’

2017 08:00 AM PDT [The Dappered Space]( is a series designed to help guys apply the sense of personal style they’ve developed to the space they inhabit. Watch for articles on furniture and decor sales & picks, advice on how to style a room or work space, and tackling creating a space that reflects your own (and perhaps a significant other’s) personal tastes. We’ll suggest items that can be sourced online, but always keep in mind that deals can be found at consignment and thrift stores, local stores with floor models, discount stores, and even yard sales. It’s time once again to tap your own personal sense of style to create a stylized look for a room. Since we don’t know each other, thus I don’t know your exact personal style, I’m relying on a recent Style Scenario for guidance, since if you frequent this site you likely appreciate the style sensibilities touted here. We’re utilizing the colors and textures of [this recent style scenario]( to put together a styled dining space. Whether you have a formal dining room, or your dining area flows into the rest of your home, choosing the right furniture and decor can really set the space apart and make it a pleasure to utilize. Pairing light and dark creates contrast, and bringing in natural elements is certainly trendy right now, but never really goes out of style. The Table: [Simple Living Helena Dining Table – $249.99](//goto.target.com/c/94385/81938/2092?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.target.com%2Fp%2Fhelena-dining-table-white-gray-tms%2F-%2FA-50671988%23lnk%3Dsametab). Might not be for everyone with that bright white base, but surrounded by the right pieces, this table can be a stand out. Sold by Target, but no reviews as of yet. Does go on sale often during furniture events. It’s also sold at a higher price over at [Overstock](//www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Simple-Living-Helena-Dining-Table/10601749/product.html?recset=c216619d-29cd-47e8-8d80-43916161fa11&refccid=AN6TLYGVWVWJTECDLLSQP7BACU&searchidx=3&recalg=61&recidx=3&keywords=grey%20dining%20table&refinement=), where it has great reviews. If the white base is too eclectic for your taste, here’s [something more subdued](//www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Furniture-of-America-Monterra-Mid-century-Modern-Grey-Dining-Table/14334446/product.html?recset=c216619d-29cd-47e8-8d80-43916161fa11&refccid=AN6TLYGVWVWJTECDLLSQP7BACU&searchidx=5&recalg=61&recidx=5&keywords=grey%20dining%20table&refinement=). The Chairs: [Coaster Home Furnishings Side Chair (set of 2) – $98](. Bringing in some warmth now with the walnut hue of the wood on these chairs, but the black faux leather seat matches the coolness of the table. Stylistically they’re a bit different from the table, but different styles can work together. The Rug: [Jute Simple Border Blue Area Rug (8′ x 10′) – $201.06](//hpn.houzz.com/c/94385/372747/5454?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.houzz.com%2Fphotos%2F37328200%2FJute-Simple-Border-Area-Rug-Blue-8x10-farmhouse-area-rugs). Not necessary, but a rug will create a border around your dining table, and add color. I’d recommend going larger, so dining chairs aren’t falling off the edge of the rug when pulled out. Another option you might consider are carpet tiles, which [Flor]( seems to have the most stylish options available of. The great thing about carpet tiles is if one gets stained, you can remove it to give it a really good washing, or replace it with a new one if you just can’t get the stain out. The Centerpiece: [Hammered Edge Pure Copper Circular Serving Party Tray – $44.95](. Another nonessential item, but placing something decorative in the middle of your dining table brings an artistic touch to an otherwise plain tabletop. A centerpiece can be as simple as a tray with some [small potted plants or succulents]( placed on top. (Be sure to protect your tabletop with a mat, or by sticking some [felt furniture sliders]( underneath to create a buffer.) If you want to go big, this [polyresin “moose antler” bowl]( would certainly make a statement. The Placemats: [Threshold Silver Kitchen Textiles Placemat – $4.99](//goto.target.com/c/94385/81938/2092?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.target.com%2Fp%2Fsilver-kitchen-textiles-placemat-threshold-153%2F-%2FA-51594077%23lnk%3Dnewtab) ($20 for a set of 4). An easy way to add more texture and pattern to your table. These placemats do just that. If you want something more subdued and easy to care for, I’m a fan of the [Bistro Woven Square Placemats]( from [Bed Bath & Beyond](. Super cheap and easy to clean. The Sideboard: [Vilas Tobacco-finished 4-door Dining Buffet – $529.99](//www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Vilas-Tobacco-finished-4-door-Dining-Buffet/6280947/product.html?recset=e41bfe25-c43b-4e34-b78a-2f1a69272834&refccid=L5O3C5LLCJGJV6KJ2QOXEXIZZ4&searchidx=28&recalg=61&recidx=28&keywords=buffet&refinement=). If you have the space, a sideboard, buffet, or credenza can provide extra storage, extra counter space for food, and an additional spot for some decor. This particular buffet is fairly large, but there are [plenty of options on Overstock](//www.overstock.com/search?keywords=buffet&SearchType=Header) in a variety of sizes. The Wine Rack: [Sorbus Wall-Mounted 9-Bottle Wine Rack – $24.99](//hpn.houzz.com/c/94385/372747/5454?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.houzz.com%2Fphotos%2F37745108%2FSorbus-Wall-Mounted-9-Bottle-Wine-Rack-contemporary-wine-racks). If you’re a wine connoisseur, or want to have wine on hand for guests, this rack doubles as wall decor and is perfectly suited to a dining area. Complement it with a couple other items like a small mirror and picture/work of art to create a grouping on the wall.
