Nobody said this fashion life would be easy. No matter how up on the latest trends you are, no matter how many menswear blogs you bookmark, no matter how many girlfriends you have to dress you, you are going to make mistakes. Having your own style means taking risks. Risks sometimes don't pay off. Even the most swagged-out men among us sometimes fall victim to style fails.
