Do we have the subject for today, guys?
What is the subject? Let's talk about bullshit like
last time. Yet yet another episode yeah of
such a self immense with podcast and today's episode actually we
have a script it's. Improv.
It's not improvised, OK. No, it's not.
But I think we were talking about those fashion rules that
you can actually break. Yeah.
So we're breaking them a lot actually.
Everyone is breaking those rules, but I I don't think that
so many people actually know their rules.
Yeah, yeah, exactly. And but that's the difference.
There's a difference that when you are breaking the rules
because you don't know about them or if you're breaking the
rules because it's intentional. And that's a big difference.
So that's always interesting to to have some kind of talk around
this aspect. Yeah, because today we're going
to talk about style rules. Rules we actually break.
Yeah, you break a lot of rules. I think so, but I'm aware and
it's with intention of often. Yeah, me only when I'm driving
and breaking the rules. Exactly.
You see, you want to play with this.
I want to have like I want to have a farts on.
That's that's it. I'm saying it all the time.
Yeah, but you know those, those rules were fashion menswear
rules. They were made long time ago.
Yeah, exactly. Like, no brown in town?
Why even? Because people were wearing
brown shoes, going on the field and working.
Yeah, and it's a mix of rules that have been made by
bourgeoisie and and aristocracy. And it was just to differentiate
themself with people that could maybe have the money, but not
the knowledge. So.
Or maybe they didn't have the money, they didn't have the
opportunity even to wear, for example, white shirts, for
example. Why we wear white shirts on
formal occasions? Because it's it's hard to keep
it. Clean, but that's the difference
in between white colour and blue colours, yeah.
Exactly. And you, you know, those those
shirts with white colours but different, like, for example,
blue rest. Yeah.
Because in the past, some people had just the white collars and
they just cleaned the white collars and everything else was
still dirty because people didn't have money.
And now every everyone has money.
And wearing floral for example shirt is not because you want to
hide because it's dirty. Yeah, exactly.
But actually those brands in America, because like 100 years
ago, people were still wearing those type of colours that are
detachable that you change. And it's some brands in America
started to, it was industrialization.
So they started to make actual shirt that you can wear with, I
mean, without detachable elements.
And and that changed the the fashion, it changed the quality
also over time. But they are rules from
different social environment, but they are also rules from
within work. So for example.
What do you mean which? In different categories of work,
so or different jobs. So for example, if you take the
bankers, the reason why there are stripes, it's basically the
scene of the stripes are the more elevated you are in a rank.
It's like with pilots. How many stripes?
You have on the exactly, but it was more like an unsaid rule
about those suits, you know, and now we identified the poor suit
with stripes to bank and so on. But but not everyone could wear
it or I mean it was you would have a lot of social pressure.
If you wrote on this. Yeah, it's actually Golden
Gecko. But also in all the type of
work, because if you are taking nowadays, everyone is about the
chore jacket, you know the chore jacket or how do you say call
jacket, work, wear jacket, CHORE chore jacket and the workwear
jacket. People also love to have them
second hand, you know, old chore jacket that are.
I don't think, I don't think I know what it is.
What it is So it's basically you have seen me wearing this blue
jacket with outside pockets in cotton heavy.
Cotton, you mean? OK.
It's like worker shirt like overshirts.
Yeah, but it's a jacket. It's a natural jacket with heavy
cotton and it could be matched with the same trousers because
it was workwear but like. Yeah, I mean, even my dad, when
he was a mechanic, he wore something like that and it was
blue, almost Navy, not Navy, but it wasn't a regular blue colour.
And the what is very interesting is that at least in France, a
lot of people are trying to collect those old jackets from
those times. But the colours, they are
different colours for those jackets because depending on
what you were working with, you would have to wear a different
color, yeah. It was like a uniform.
Exactly. So painters were wearing white,
I think woodworker black blue was for I'm not sure anymore.
But anyways, how? Will you call those guys that
are cleaning chimneys cheese? They're wearing black, but it
was different in Poland. When you see a guy like that,
you should grab his button. They have metal buttons.
It's it gives it will give you luck really.
Like to touch the button. Yeah, exactly.
They are. They are used to it.
No, everyone is like grabbing their pants in the street.
Yeah, but they're not so often in those in those outfits
anymore. But when I was a kid they still
they still actually went through between houses and collect money
or just they were selling calendars also.
OK, but they were like actually going in your chimney to take
away the. No, usually they were just
collecting, collecting money. Right now those those guys are
checking ventilation system. Yeah.
Yeah, but they are not wearing those outfits anymore.
Exactly. They are wearing more like
workwear. Yeah, even last week I had a
photo shooting. No, this week I had a photo
shooting. I post with work workwear.
Yeah, but you were wearing like those yellow vest or?
Yellow, black, yeah, different there.
There is fashion that it's so many different, different
outfits. So you can have whatever you
want. Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I, I love wearing workwear.
I think it's so. Yeah, but not like that
workwear. It was workwear that you
actually work in. Yeah, yeah, but that's, but
that's the thing when you are my workwear jacket, I mean, I I
wouldn't wanna destroy it too soon, but I I had another jacket
that I was. So we spend a week painting.
A friend has a little small island and he has a few cabins
on it. And we painted all the cabins
and I was wearing another jacket that I had now, the stains of
painting on it. And it was made from an old
canvas that was taken from tents, army tents, from Russian
army tents, old Russian army tents.
But it's like. Denim Denim was a fabric for
tents. Oh, was it really, really OK?
If first denim was made for for tents because it was just so
durable. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
And something that I like to use for accessories, for example,
it's the canvas that is used for boat, sailboat, you know, for
their how do you call that actually what they used to sail
and to take grab the wind. Yeah, I don't, I don't even.
Know, I'm not sure about how much you call it.
That's that's becoming very technical.
But yeah, there are some. I think one of the fabric is
called X pack and this 6 pack is very interesting, maybe not for
clothes, but for accessories like backpack and things like
this because it's water resistant, it's quite solid, but
also it gets a very nice patina. So it's one of that's a problem
with technical fabrics. Usually they don't get a nice
patina or patina at all, but this one gets patina so.
Because they they they are is so easy to clean.
So yeah, exactly. But.
That's also the texture. It's a bit crisp, feels a bit
like some kind of paper or something like this with a RIP
stop. So a RIP stop is those little
square that you have in the in the weave technique and it's
it's preventing from the. You know that this part is
actually called just sail. Sail, right, Sail.
Just sail. We're not too far from it.
I didn't know. But yeah, so yeah, those
technical RIP stop techniques, but I mean something that is
also used in jungle jacket and all trousers, the olive green
trousers from Informal that I'm often wearing is made of
ripstop. Yeah, but today we're going to
talk about breaking the rules. So what rules we are actually
breaking? Usually just we that we are
wearing brown in town, but how not to wear it.
And we live in Stockholm. Nobody actually cares.
Maybe, I don't know, maybe in London people would say
something that after 6. PM Yeah, maybe you.
Should wear You should wear black.
Yeah, maybe you think no. I don't think so.
Maybe in, maybe. When you meet the king.
Yeah, exactly. Maybe if you.
Yeah, exactly in this type of very well protocols and so on.
Although I am unsure that even the royal family, when they are
not seen by the cameras, are actually following any rules at
all to be honest and. I think, I think the king follow
rules because he is well known Derby.
But wearing, you know, the people are actually so, so
against wearing black shoes because they think that it's
just so boring. Today we are wearing black shoes
like loafers and you are wearing black derbies.
Yeah, derbies. Brogues.
Yeah. And actually that's, I mean, and
a very interesting point that was risen by Asco Kitty all the
time he was talking about black shoes and he was explaining our
important they are visually, they are grounding you and they
make you more steady and this gives more character to your
silhouette but also to yourself and when you are trying to
present something. But one rule that we are
breaking is that we are wearing loafers all the time.
Yeah, but it's something something different.
I would say that loafers are OK. Loafers are not formal, but they
just look so good and they are so sleek.
So this is. Yeah, we are, we are wearing
them. But also one thing that people
are breaking the rules. They are wearing oxfords with
chinos. I don't understand that because
we don't wear Oxford that often because it's just such a shoe
that so formal and people are working in Oxford and so at the
at the bank and wearing those. You could wear Oxford.
Yeah, but it would be. It's just so easy to just slip
on your shoe. You don't need to think about
anything else. OK, so for example, today I'm
breaking some rules because the suit is quite formal.
I mean, the fabric is maybe not so formal, but it's it's not
flannel. So that's the thing, it should
be quite formal because it's a herring bone, even though we
it's very soft, so we don't see it.
But there's a bit of a brush aspect with that makes it a bit
more matte. Yeah.
So it's not. So it's not super formal and
it's wooden wool. Yeah, wait.
Worsted. Worsted.
Yeah, exactly. Worsted.
So it's more smooth, but it's still, it looks like flannel,
but I'm wearing Oxford. Oxford cotton shirt button down.
Is it Oxford or Royal Oxford? Yeah, it's I.
Cannot see it from here. I think it's all just Oxford.
Yeah. So it should be not so formal.
Yeah, but still. It's a white shirt.
Yeah, exactly. Just button down.
That's always what I'm what I'm saying.
It's also matter because when we get closer to you, we see that
it's a bit more matte and that as this texture, but from quite
distance we just see that you're wearing a blue suit, so it's
quite formal. Yeah, because blue dark colours
are more formal. White shirts are less formal.
It's one. Of the first time I think I'm
seeing you in a blue suit. I think you haven't worn a blue
suit in a long. Time I have worn blue Navy suit
but I cannot find it. It's somewhere.
It's I. Wish I could say something like
the worst here. It's my 10,000.
It's, it's bespoke also. I think it's just, I think it's,
it's too tight right now on me. Yeah.
So, so it's OK that I cannot find it because it's just hard
to sell some bespoke suits. I'm I don't know what I'm going
to do with it. I still lost some weight.
You can't put it on the model like this and.
Just look at it, sometimes pretty worse to the wall.
I think it's a lot of pianos, cabal or something like that,
pretty good quality, but it's just too tight.
So yeah. And also we are also breaking
other rules like wearing a lot of patterns, for example, mixing
patterns. Because the rule is that you
should wear maybe one thing with patterns like shirt for example.
And if you wear a suit with patterns, then shirts should be
plain. But if you have some sense of
style where you can even match three different patterns.
Yeah, yeah. I mean, that's something that
for example Loic does that all the time.
Probably CLEAR does that a lot as well.
It's just just the rule is that when one pattern is, for
example, big stripes, then the another one should be smaller.
Yeah, Yeah. So you just play with different
sizes with. Yeah.
Yeah, Derek also, I've seen him doing that quite often because
he loves to wear some scarf as a tie, you know, so they have.
A lot of pattern, Derek from America, USA.
Exactly. Brownie, Yeah.
So he's wearing often times a few patterns where I think it's
just the fun to play a bit with path hands.
Can you do that or is it sometimes for me, it's just
sometimes it's just too hard. I cannot.
I need to wear it. Yeah.
And then I need to have some
Plan B. If if it's.
Not if in in case it's not working like today for example,
I came here. No, I came, I was working at loc
store today and I came in polished leather black penny
loafers and it was just too much.
I wanted to have something different, maybe not polished.
So, so I just, I just took a guy said I bought another pair of
shoes like Oh my God, I don't have space for those shoes.
I just needed to have black matte calf leather tussel
loafers. And no, I know why you are
broke. Yeah, always.
I'm too broke. But nice shoes.
Yeah, but a new suit and new tie, everything is just,
everything is just new. Yeah, I just, I just actually
picked it up the suit yesterday. I just need to go to the tailor
and do some small adjustments. But yeah, well, that's cool.
It's just so nice to have some blue suits.
I mean, when you are. And by default, because we love
menswear, we are wearing things that are not super easy to wear
everyday. But I cannot stress enough how
easy it is to sometimes you. You're just too lazy to figure
out what you're going to wear. You're in a rush.
Yes, suit is very easy to wear. And then you take a blue suit
and you know that it's going to work, you know, and that's
really my favorite go to. It would Navy suit every every
shirt even fits. Yeah, exactly.
You can even dress it down wearing some Western shirt.
Yeah. That's what I love to do.
Yeah, exactly. So for me, my, if I had the
uniform, I would say it's a blue suit with a Western shirt with
or without tie. But it's just something that I
don't have the time to think about it, and I know I'm going
to be. Happy, but what do you think?
Like suit should be worn with a tie.
Yeah. It's also a rule.
Yeah, exactly. And that we are breaking all the
time. I love wearing suit, but without
wearing a tie because then I'm taking pleasure in wearing a tie
when I'm doing it. It's like a statement.
But at the same time, don't you think that wearing a suit
without a tie is just boring? It like all those finance Bros,
just Navy suits, blue shirt and and that's all.
It depends how you are wearing it because me, I love to, I'm
opening quite a lot of buttons. I there's also my chain
appearing. So there's a lot of actual
exactly. So at the end of the day,
without realizing it, you know it's not my intention, but it
looks way more elaborated than it was.
Because. Because for me it's just a bit.
I think it lacks something. Yeah, that's also why sometimes
I'm wearing some kind of handkerchief or something around
my neck. I may maybe I should have some
some chain on my neck. Right above it, but like but I
will get pops and and like if you are going back pops, you
know, or church members and if you are going back in times and
203 hundred years ago they were like wearing blingdings, you
know, like the chains above there they were.
I think, I think very strict. I think you you you've seen
maybe this this reel made by AI with all the popes just looked
looking like rappers. Haven't seen this.
I think it was AI. Yeah, yeah, there's so much AI,
there's this, but but yeah, no, exactly.
I think. And I was almost thinking about
it. I was like, there's something
cool about it. How can we go towards this?
And but then it's too much. That's also sometimes you're
tempted to do something that is really out of the book and like,
oh, maybe that can be my stuff, you know?
And then I'm, I'm feeling like very quickly you're going to get
tired of it. You know, it's like you don't
want to be too much. OK, but it it was like this
summer, for example, wearing wearing suits with tank tops.
Yeah, I haven't done it. Or like putting putting polo
shirt collars on the lapels of the suit.
But that on that is some trend that we have seen for a long
time. It's coming from far.
So that's. 70s. Exactly.
Miami, Miami Vice. The tank tops thing is very
recent so I would feel like a teenager trying to mimic but
it's trendy because I don't even find that super nice to be
honest. I I liked it but also me wearing
the tank top it also looks like when I take off the jacket is
no. Yeah, exactly.
Showing the guns. Yeah, exactly.
You feel very in the dress as soon as you are taking it off,
it feels almost a bit silly. So I'm also wearing suits, for
example double breasted suits in linen or like black linen suits
and opened. You know black is black should
be should be reserved for formal events for evening, because
black should look looks good in the evening in in lights like
not not sunlight. Yeah, but in Sweden it's always
dark, so yeah. We got a bus in the in the in
the summer. It's it's too late hours.
It's. But that's also something that's
the uniform ID black also with certain skiing and so on and
features looks very nice. And for me it looks very nice.
So what I'm going to do is that I'm going to compensate by using
a lot of texture. So I have two black suits, 1 is
in flannel, the other one is in. Yeah, because it's not not worst
at all. It's not shiny exactly.
For example, smoking tuxedo. Yeah, exactly.
So you can tell that it's not a funeral suit?
Or it's not? Yeah, exactly.
A more dressed up suit, so right away and I'm wearing it in my
own way. So we assure that it's quite
open. So I make it very informal.
So then it becomes a bit of rock and that's that's quite cool.
Because I got a lot of comments under that reel from Suit Supply
where I in the summer I wore black just with black slacks and
black polo shirt, even a bit transparent knitted.
And you know, because people think that when it's summer, you
need to, you need to wear something light.
No, it's just the black. I, I hate that black actually.
And now I just love to wear black because it's just so easy.
Yeah, and it feels a bit like I shouldn't do it.
I mean, it just looks sexy. Come on.
Yeah, it's black. Even this this new campaign of
suit supply, I took black denim. Yeah, yeah, no, but that true.
I just think it looks quite sexy.
If you can embody it, if you can be the person you are you
pretend to be with your garments, let's say with what
you are wearing, then it looks very cool.
Yeah. And so, so many people are
afraid of, are afraid of black, black colour.
Yeah, not the Americans, for example.
They are not afraid enough of it.
They are wearing it all the time.
For them, it's not like funeral oriented.
They can wear that as a basic suit.
But it's also some some kind of rule that we like to we like to
break and also maybe wearing suits with some unformal
jackets, maybe for not jackets, shirts, maybe shirts with the
pockets. I mentioned Western shirts, I
mentioned even I 10 years ago, I wouldn't say that I wouldn't
wear a shirt with a with a pocket.
It was also something that for example, in my at my work,
people wear with calculators, you know, calculators typical
accountant with the ink dropping.
Yeah, exactly. And you?
Have the little. Socket even as Okie said once
that you should never wear shirts with with pockets because
you will be you will look like an accountant.
And I commented like, but what if I'm an accountant?
And actually a lot of people commented back like a me too, I
love it. I just love when I when I have
some pens or something. But it's also like people, for
example, those who smoke, they can have cigarettes here, a
lighter, something. It just looks so laid back.
But not having this pocket may be a bit lower and it looks
pretty cool. Have it lower, but also again,
it's the way you are wearing it because I can see a lot of you
know those movies from the 60's, the Italian movies when you are
all those cool actors, they were wearing stuff in their pockets
and they look cool. But if you are taking the
accountant, it doesn't look cool.
No, no, it's, it's, I would say it's the way you're wearing it,
but it's also the cut of your shirt.
How is your shortcut? Does it look like a freaking
balloon or? And we are always talking about
the fact that you need space. So you do need space and you
don't want to have something too tight.
But on the other hand, you still want something that is tailored,
that is adjusted. You know, it's always good that
there is a bit of intention behind what you are doing and
then you can forget about this intention and you address
yourself. Those details on the shirt for
example, for me as a owner of Scolara, all of my shirts they
have pockets because the pockets is actually something that
stands out from the crowd. For more regular shirts, they
just have pattern, maybe color fabric, but with a shirt,
different pockets, even asymmetrical pockets. 1 like
this one like that you can just add a bit of spice in your
shirts. It's just of course guys, it's
on formal, so you shouldn't wear a shirt like that on a formal
event. But for example, me having even
a blue, blue Navy suit, I could have some pockets here and then
it would be more cool. Maybe some less formal tie,
maybe some knit or even open. That's the word you said.
Cool. What is cool Nowadays, what is
cool is freedom. Freedom from rules.
Those rules don't doesn't apply. Exactly.
And they don't apply to people that have power, and they have
power either because they have money, because they have a good
situation, or because they are daring.
And because people with money, they wear whatever.
Exactly. And you look cool if you're have
this type of mindset. So if you're wearing a suit and
you're wearing a western shirt with a tie, this is a combo that
my previous boss at, at the Blue Bow or Frederick was doing a
lot. And I really took that from him.
I was doing it without a tie before.
And then I was like, oh, that actually looks very cool with
the tie. And then I started doing this
and because also it was corresponding to me, you know,
so it made sense. And when I'm wearing it, I don't
feel I'm copying someone. I feel like I'm just going
further in the direction that I was already taking from before.
I'm just exploring a bit more in my own, my own self, you know,
my own expression. And yeah, I would say again, it
looks cool when you can break a bit those rules.
And that's the cool stuff. You know the swing is is there.
So you can wear a suit in many different ways, but actually you
need to know, for example, if you are going as a guest for a
wedding, you need to know those rules.
Yeah. Exactly.
Those are I mean, it's like the basic of civilized world because
you want to be civilized in those moment and being civilized
is like knowing the basic rules not to shock anyone.
And most of people they don't really know the they don't know
so many rules, but the little that they know, they will be a
bit like why he's not falling in them.
You know this type of heavens. Yeah, the rules are are some
very simple guys. I think we were even talking
about it in the episode that we recorded five times about being
a guest on a wedding. Just dark, dark suit, a smooth
wall, so worsted wall, white shirt, some printed, nice tie,
black shoes, and it's easy. You can have a pocket square
where you don't need to have and that's it.
That's all. But that's, yeah, that's very
true. And that's something that is
actually quite cool is fuck, I don't remember what I was
saying. Wait, let's start again.
What was I saying? I mean, I may maybe because
breaking the rules is cool, but you need to know how to break
them. Because sometimes when I I would
say that I don't know what you had on mind, but I had a thought
right now that, you know, a lot of people want to break the
rules. Like wearing for example, Navy,
Navy suit with tan shoes or like a or like a black suit with a
black tie and a black shirt or for example, tuxedo with a tie.
Yeah, I mean, but this is just it's not breaking the rules.
It's just. Being ignorant?
Yeah, exactly. Not knowing the rules.
No, but there's also lack of taste.
You know? It's like it doesn't take a lot
of taste just to know that two colors don't go together, that
it looks ugly, you know? But that anyone could.
I could have it. Like black on black on black.
Yeah, but black on black. Yesterday I was wearing black on
black, black shirt and black flannel suit.
And usually it's something that you don't want to do because
it's too much and it doesn't. I mean, it's very difficult.
To wear that, if you would add a light Gray tie then it would be.
That's horrible and but yeah. Because the shirts should be
always lighter. Than a pack and it's really I
was really on the edge of something that that works, but
it actually worked and I think it's again it's due to your
confidence in wearing stuff. You know you just wear it
because you feel probably had a good idea there and then you
will figure it out, but confidence that you show when
you are wearing something will make people around you not
question it anymore. You know, sometimes I got some
questions. I had a very formal suit and
loaf. Those loafers were brown.
Yeah. And I wore white socks because I
just wanted to have those white socks.
Yeah, I remember. Like, why are you wearing white
socks? You could have those no show
socks because I just wanted yeah, yeah, yeah.
And even like last week, I I we we were going back.
I think I was going back from, from, from work.
I wore the this white suit that I have the cream and and sorry,
my phone is just vibrating here. I'm so popular because I have a
script on my phone. Sorry, sorry, guys, I'm not, I'm
not SMS ING our like chatting with somebody right now or
swiping on Tinder. No, just just looking at the
script. But one guy approached me and he
said like, oh shit, you look really good.
And I then I showed him our podcast and he follows us and
yeah, we can greet him right now and if he's listening.
But other guy in the background was with his girlfriend.
And I just, I've heard it that somebody told the guy, told her
his girlfriend, this guy is wearing white socks.
She didn't said that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I wore a white suit, So what kind of if I want to wear a
sock, So what kind of color? Yeah, exactly.
I mean, white works because it's just prolonging.
Legs. No, they need to go with it.
Yeah, of course not throughout the white sports socks, running
socks. No, no.
Exactly. No, But yeah, exactly.
And I remember what I want to say.
A black suit, black shoes and white socks?
Then no, no. Of course you look like Michael
Jackson. Only him has the right to do
this or he had, but no. And I was, yeah, I was deriving
and I was talking about the uniform ID because that's a
strong thing when you, when you have even breaking some rules,
make something that will look a bit more like you at the end of
the day. And if your way of breaking this
rule becomes you. But that it feels genuine.
And I must say that there are some people that are breaking
some rules and I feel them. It doesn't feel very genuine to
be honest, even though they they're pushing it and they keep
doing it like this. Like some?
Do you have some example breaking some rules?
Yeah, for example. Well, OK, optics because this
one is like so wearing the watch above the shirt.
Like Jenny and. Jenny exactly.
People are saying that he can afford to do it because he is
with. Well, I still think it's a bit
too much to be honest. At the end of the day, I will
always think because I don't care who he is.
You know, at the end of the day, you're just for what you're
doing. It was an icon, but exactly.
Maybe that's a bit too much. It was his thing.
Yeah, exactly. But but yeah, no, jokes aside,
yeah, sometimes I just feel it doesn't work.
But I really like this idea of having some kind of uniform,
something that you can go to and you know that those type of
ideas will always work because when you actually are busy in
life, when you are doing stuff in your life, you mean like.
Your your your typical uniform, something that you would go for
every time. But not in a boring way with all
the rules that you have broken in with time or all the things
that really represent you. And you go for that and, and it
looks, it doesn't look like uniform.
It looks like people will think, all right, he's been thinking
about it. Well, you thought about it
because you have been wearing that for 10 years, but you're
not thinking about it anymore. And when you are actually active
in your life, which I think makes someone charming, you are
not charming because you have a lot of time to look at yourself
in front of the mirror. You are charming because you
thought about this from before. So you have some knowledge and
now you are actually doing something with your life.
So you don't have the time every morning to figure out what I'm
going to wear, but. That also I I think I have
something like that. During winter time, it's just a
turtleneck, black denim trousers, black loafers and a
trench coat or a coat. Yeah, I think that's quite.
Cool because it's you don't need to iron turtlenecks.
So that's true. So and you don't need to iron
denim. Yeah, when I've been wearing for
a full week shirts and I look at my all the shirts on the weekend
that I have to iron, I'm like, maybe I should have thought
about it twice before. Just leave it at at the dry
cleaning. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you can do
that, of course. But but yeah, I don't know.
I like to take care of myself, my stuff by myself saying, you
know, like. Me too.
I don't you know some dry cleaners?
They just ruin my suit. Yeah, that happens also.
Yeah, but no. So, yeah, I, I think that it,
it's cool to go to this type of uniform.
And I was thinking something that they would like to test a
bit also. I know I remember that David
Beckham is doing this. It's like he's preparing his
full week of what he is going to wear.
And I was thinking about it. I'm like that's so convenient.
It is. You take one, maybe you will
take half an hour to think about it.
You take everything out. It's like on a anger on 2 angers
on a rack and you just go for it and you.
Don't touch that. That's and no, me neither.
At best I'm thinking about it the night for the next day
because I'm such such in a hurry in the morning, you.
Can you can think what rules you want to you want to break?
I have another rule wearing different belt, I mean not the
same color and shoes. Good one actually, because this
one I'm still always questioning myself about it.
Sometimes I'm like when it's black it's easier.
You will wear black. Brown, you have different tones.
Exactly. And sometimes I'm like, if I try
to match it exactly, I feel it's too much.
Sometimes, especially when it's a very specific tone, it's a bit
like I most feel like those guys that are trying to match their
tie with their pockets. Yeah, you bought the shoes and
the belt was for free. Exactly, exactly.
So I feel it's too much. So I feel like, but when I'm not
doing it, I'm feeling like, hey, it's not matching also, you
know? So I'm like always.
What if you have, for example, light grey suede shoes?
You're not going to buy just one belt for one pair of shoes.
Yeah, exactly. So you can wear a black or you
can you can wear like black for example, not black calf leather
with black suede for example. I would wear it.
It's just the color it is. Or like for example I have the
you know, bag. Yeah.
Today actually I have black shoes, I have a black bag, but
sometimes I have the the green one with the dark brown and.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But also yeah, it and I think in
this case it goes with all odd feet.
You know there's a big ID behind the odd feet.
Also, but it also takes time for me to take out everything from
the bag. And guys I have I have something
for you a special advice that I have a small like pouch, like a
laundry pouch that you you can, you can buy some sets or Amazon,
for example, when you travel. So you have some your toiletries
in small pouch. And I have all my stuff in the
pouch. So when I change the change the
bag, then I just need to take out the pouch.
Not not every piece like because I have pants, I have Airpods, I
have keys a lot like my badge from work so I have everything
inside. So I just take out the pouch and
change the back. Yeah.
But I would say yeah, the most difficult is with the brown
tones, I think. And then it's just, I think
it's, it can be an idea to have maybe the belt could be a bit
lighter, I think. It doesn't need to be tone on
tone, no, no. Exactly.
If I mean if, if the ID goes well with the I mean if your
shoes goes very well with your socks and your trousers and if
your belt goes well with your trouser and the shirt that is
just above or something like this, it will be enough.
And it's it's going to work and no one is gonna be like.
But I would say that breaking a rule and wearing, for example a
very casual belt for made for jeans with elegant trousers.
Yeah. That is not breaking a rule with
style, no. No, that's funny because we're
talking about loafers and like we are wearing loafers in all
settings. But I think that there's
something else is the I'm not wearing it today.
I'm breaking a rule. I should be wearing a belt
because I have belt loops and I'm not wearing it at all.
But those thin belt that I'm usually wearing, they go with
everything. They go with the more dressed up
settings. They go also with the.
More dressed down. I only have those, but you know,
with denim sometimes they are too thin because it's one inch.
Yeah. So that's why I have one silver
ostrich cowboy belt. It's a bit.
Thick. Yeah, I have this one as well.
It's a bit thicker. That's true.
But I don't know. I always felt that it was
working with the names. It's also a matter of body
proportion, I would say. I'm seeing.
So yeah, I also it goes a little bit wider.
So I think guys, I think it's like 20 kilos between us, yeah,
difference and we are quite the same height.
Yeah. And 175 you're maybe.
You want to say, Do you want to tell your way?
Yeah, I last week it was 89 kilos 89.9 and now it's 86.
Yeah, I'm around 70, but I've always been very light actually.
70 I was 70 in high school. I was not 70 in high school.
I was. Yeah, I was.
I've always been between 60. Five and we also have some fans
from USA and guys, we're not going to convert it.
No, you need to go and change the to metro.
I almost feel insulted when someone is coming at me and it's
like so 12 inch or I'm 666. Five.
I'm, I think I, I think I'm 555 foot 9 or something.
I'm joking, of course, but it's just.
I'm think I'm 59, yeah. It's it's so.
It's so it's so strange. I don't want, I don't want to
say the words. It's so strange.
Let's. Say and being being being a
pilot to you guys because everything started in USA, now I
need to convert it. You know, gliders, they have
speed in kilometers per hour. Planes they have usually knots,
but some they have in mph. I flew a plane within miles, but
usually it's knots and those gallons pounds.
But I can almost understand it in those because like it's a
very different environment. So I could almost accept it in
in planes and in boats, but when it comes to cars and just
counting stuff on the key. But you know, in Sweden we have
those Swedish miles and it's not a formal and yeah, one mile is
10 kilometres. Oh really?
Never heard about that before. Nah, yeah, it's, it's not
formal, it's not written anywhere.
It's just Swedish miles, just 10 kilometres.
OK. So for example, when you talk
about cars, they take for example 6 litres per 100
kilometres, so they say it's 06 per mile.
OK. No, for 10 miles they say 006.
Yes. OK, yeah, it's weird.
It's weird. Like I don't know why but yeah.
But in US they say miles per gallon, so it's different.
So it's the opposite. Like they not the how many miles
per one. Never, never.
Mind, we have lost you guys. Stay there, Stay there.
Yeah, so guys, when you want to break the rules, as always, you
need to know. Them about your you guys rules
that you. Like what rules you like to
break you guys? Or that you find very silly are.
Yeah, because a lot of rules are actually outdated, so.
It's like. Which rule is your least?
Favorite. I'm always talking about this
guy that told me at PT that I shouldn't wear invisible socks
because it was for a woman. Everything that is, that was no,
everything that is for women right now, it was actually for
men. For men at some point, yeah.
So if you guys want to wear stockings, if you guys want to
wear skirts, it was made for men and wigs as well.
Still, still judges. In Great Britain, for example,
they wear the wigs. Yeah, I mean, if I.
Can so you can wear whatever. Just make it stylish, guys.
Even your wig. Even if you were a wig or
something, I would prefer maybe go to Turkey.
And I totally recommend because I I've been there Exactly.
So guys break the rules but know the know the rules because
breaking some rules. Yeah, it will show.
It will show there's a an obvious difference in in between
someone that breaks the rule because he knows about it and
someone that breaks it because he doesn't know.
So don't be this guy, be the other one.
Exactly. So wearing two different socks,
it's breaking the rule, but in a weird way.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like this politician that is
wearing also those crazy socks. Canadian Canadian but also
English or Canadian not. Trudeau was.
Doing that also. Yeah, he had those like happy
socks, Ish. My God.
OK guys, that's a wrap. So see you in another episode.
Bye bye. Cheers guys too.
