Midwest-Dressed gets Interviewed

Last week I was contacted by Jacob Elyachar, of jacobelyacarjournalist.com, to talk about my views on menswear, the media, and blogging. I was only slightly hungover, but he still did a good job of not making me sound like the rambling mess I'm sure I came off as. 
We talked over the phone, but might as well have been in a bar. At least on my end.
 "JE: In your opinion, what are some of the biggest fashion mistakes that men make? 
NL:  I think that the biggest (mistake), and this is a very broad generalization, is 'not caring.'  In my opinion, I think a lot of guys are turned off by the word “fashion” because they feel it's not macho or masculine. They see girls worried about fashion and they don’t want to be like that, they want to be the antithesis of that.   To dress well and look good is not only beneficial because you will look better and feel better about yourself, but it's also not hard."
You like what you see? Of course you do. Read more here, and check out more of Jacob's stuff.
