Here’s a Nick Wooster we don’t see everyday.

The nervous fidgety, Wooster with an air of self-doubt.

I for one am glad. But lemme tell you why. You see, we only ever get to see the good shots of nick, that 1 split second in time where he looks bad ass wearing some killer combination of awesome!

And why do we all respect the man?

Because dudes got confidence like a M*#her F#@ker.

I’de like to think it’s because even though he may carry as much self doubt as we all do, he steps out the house anyway. And I kinda think that’s a valuable lesson. When you feel good (or at least act like you feel good) well then, you look good.

This isn’t the first time I’m preaching the confidence schtick, but this is the first time we get to see the difference it makes. Check out the resulting shots below.

So, next time you’re not sure if you’re brave enough to put something on. Do it anyway.

Okay. Stay fancy.

We’re always looking to learn something from Mr Wooster.

Today, maybe we learn to never say never. Like, woolen shorts…and yes, man stockings. There is no doubt that this outfit is braver than most, and it requires a certain “I dont give a fuck” attitude to wear it out in the real world, but lets be honest, it’s pretty freaking awesome!

Lesson learnt, Mr Wooster, Lesson learnt. From now on, lets all give a little less of a fuck.

Okay?

Okay. Stay fancy

Here’s the Man Mr Wooster being a total bad ass, smoking, tattoos, animal print.

Ok, not sure about the animal print, but something tells me, we’re all gonna be wearing it sooner than we think!

Nicks outfit, as always is awesome. I’m not gonna go as far as saying it’s spectacular. But it’s cool.

What I want to dedicate this weeks Wooster Wednesday to, is what’s inside Nicks pants. Or his pockets at least (it’s not that kind of blog)

Lemme break it down for you, top to bottom and left to right (and yes, this really is Nick’s stuff):

Bergdorf Goodman Alligator Card Wallet

PROJECT VIP Card

CXXVI Custom ZIPPO

Came lights

Eclipse Spearmint Gum

Cash

Business Cards

iPhone 4

Hotel Keys

Listerine strips

Bic lighters

Parabellum Bison Wallet

Banana Boat Aloe Vera with Vitamin E Sunscreen Lip Balm

Vintage British Navy Diving Watch from the 70’s w/ Leffot Cordovan Strap

So? What have we learnt about Nick Wooster this week? Besides the fact that he’s a bad ass. Well, it’s safe to say he has deep pockets, his breath always smells minty fresh, and he’s never gonna come ask you for a light.

The ultimate lesson? Be prepared…you know, like a boy scout.

Okay. Stay Fancy!

This may be unlucky number 13.

Firstly, this Wooster Wednesday post is a day late. Sorry (I’ve been super busy at work and at home).

Secondly, we may very well be running out of Wooster pics and I may not be able to do it on a weekly basis. None the less here’s today’s and a bonus, it comes with details.

And what can we learn from Mr Woosters outfit? Besides the fact that those orange pants totally make his outfit! Well, it’s how he can get away with wearing those orange pants. Nick’s using the ol ‘complimentary colours’ trick, for those of you who don’t know, it’s the colours opposite one another on the colour wheel. If you want more detailed explanation here’s wikepedia.

Basically complimentary colours are just that, they compliment one another, they look good together, like bacon and eggs…but in a different way. So when you’re wanting to step out and be brave with a look by adding some serious colour, go complimentary.

I do like Nick’s surprise pink belt though, clever, cause the orange makes the pink less harsh. Nice!

Okay. Stay fancy.

First Wooster Wednesday of the year.

And it’s quite a tricky one. See, I like to think that Wooster’s outfit choices teach us something (and they always have) but this one, is a little tricky.

So the advice I dispense, may feel a little shoe-horned right now, but it’s good advice none the less.

Fear not the pattern mix, In my experience if the variation between patterns is large enough - so mixing fine patterns with bold patterns - and / or the tonal range is the same, then it works. Nick is sporting a nice combo here of tartan, pinstripe and even some herringbone thrown in.

Texture, especially in winter is paramount, it’s also functional as it keeps you warm, I just love the texture of Mr Woosters tie here, and how it works so well with the suit. Get your selfs a textured tie.

As a bonus, im including 2 arty pics of Mr Wooster in this same outfit.

Pleasure ladies…and of course…certain gentlemen.

Okay. Stay Fancy.

Lets all salute Mr Wooster on this wooster wednesday.

After all he’s once again teaching us a very valuable style lesson, or at least a fashion history lesson. When all else fails, go military.

We all know that women love a man in uniform, but this shouldn’t mean having to put your life at risk to attract that perfect mate. Most of mens fashion can be traced back to the military anyway, Khakis, T shirts, Pea Coats, even those aviator sunglasses Mr Wooster has on up there. Fashion designers merely take something that was designed as functional and tip their hats to it.

So, when you’re stuck with what to wear, just ask yourself “what would Joe do?” Gi Joe, that is.

Okay. Stay Fancy.

For a man who’s style is an “internet sensation” it’s quite tricky getting pictures of Mr Wooster.

But I did love this particular pic as it teaches one small but simple lesson in fashion. Don’t be afraid to make something pop…hmmm…I may of just made that up as a lesson. But look at it here.

That red belt makes that entire outfit feel different, it goes with nothing but somehow manages to pull the whole thing together.

So, the next time you feel your outfits are getting a little lame on you, just find something to make it pop!

Okay. Stay Fancy.
