    Default Looking for a Fashion Consultant and Advice - Will Compensate - and General Thank You

    **Sorry, I'm typing this on my phone and I have a bad cold, so pardon any typos and grammar mistakes**

    If you look at the past posts you'll see that I asked this board for advice and got a ton of great feedback and everyone was more helpful than I could imagine. I'm finally in a place where I have zero health issues and landed a job that pays me way more than I deserve to get paid and I was able to pay off all my loans and can finally take care of my mom so she never has to worry about anything. As a thank you to this board (I lurk on here a lot), I wanted to do something to thank everyone who helped me and all the other members. I was thinking of having the mods help me hold a raffle or find a way to give out Amazon gift cards (or anything else you can recommend).

    So, here is what I'm looking for. I used to have a ton of waspy female friends whom I loved and I was pretty much addicted to shopping and they helped me out with fashion advice. I don't have that right now and need help from someone who can speak their mind (I love criticism) and help me with some fashion accessories. I found someone who is great for advice on suits and casual attire, but suck at accessories.

    I work in finance and all the people I work with and our clients are judgemental assholes. If you've seen American Psycho then you'll know what I mean.

    Not sure if it's more conducive to post links on here to the things I want to buy that I need advice on or to find one or two women who can take the time to understand what look I'm going for and have them give me advice through PMs.

    Either way, thank you all again. Not to sound melodramatic, but I owe this board a lot!

    **EDIT** If you're at all interested, please send me a PM as I check/troll this board regularly and reply back somewhat promptly. And I hope I didn't sound rude when I said that I was willing to compensate anyone who offered to help. I'm asking for a lot and it I know it takes time out of your schedule.

    You're welcome. I looked at your post history & you are way ahead of most of the male posters here in a lot of ways. I hope you keep reading & posting.

    This will really behoove you, I cannot tell you how many men I see in decent suits that are not tailored. It looks so sloppy, why spend over $800 on a suit if when you wear it it looks like an $80 one? Brown shoes with a black belt.. Ugh... I can't even!

    lol! Couldn’t agree more. When I didn’t have much money I still went out of my way to find a place that was reasonably priced and got a tailored suit for about $1,200. And I hope this doesn’t make me look like an asshole, but I had a older distinguished woman approach me while I was having coffee by myself just to compliment my suit. I think most men rather spend 3k and wear a belt with a big ass “H” on the buckle and then throw on anything else and they think they look fly and women will be all over them.

    Would you mind if I send you a PM? I'm spending the day with my mom since it's her birthday weekend, so I may not be able to reply until later today or tomorrow. And just a warning, it's going to be a long PM, so feel free to just take back your offer.

    And I really appreciate the offer.

    Ladies, please be advised the OP is a fraud. OP is a broke lonely college student, he tried to waste my time with a fake sob story and then sent fraudulent payment.
