Mens Style, the thinking mans guide to dress, by Russell Smith is a book obviously about style. I was just breezing through the book when something caught my attention. The section on shoes. The book says that shoes are vital to your success with women. I have women to vouch for this. Shoes are one of the first things that a woman looks at. Shoes tell a person how much money you make. What social group you're in, ect. These are the most expensive things in your outfit. But its worth it. I recently bought a pair of Nike's that have a neon logo on them. I'm saving these for night outs. And also bought a new pair of skate shoes for daytime. So get rid of those awful vans that smell like grandma. Get some nice ones. If you're older then i am and are in the business world or not buy a nice pair of leather soled shoes. I'm told they will last a life time.
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
