I started this blog three months ago to describe a man's search for style in middle age. Inevitably it has gone well some days, slowly on others - I am always looking for a fresh approach and new ideas. I would like to thank everyone who has visited, particularly those who have left interesting and encouraging comments. The blog has had over 6,000 individual visits, with more than 12,000 page views, nothing compared to the great men's fashion blogs, but it's early days and I have much to learn.
I should again thank the Sartorialist, whose blog I stumbled across one day and realised that there can be style in middle age - I celebrate with some of the Sart's photos below.
I'm still looking for another blog with a similar theme - older women receive excellent coverage from many blogs; middle age men do not - and I'm struggling to understand why that is. Are older men not interested or are they content with the generally youth-oriented fashions covered in the men's style blogs?
I'm still uncertain what it is I'm looking for - classic clothes provide one answer, but I wonder if there's a less safe and more exciting way forward for the older man wanting to dress well without looking like mutton dressed as lamb. The search continues. Feel free to get in touch with me, here or on Twitter.
