I'm attending a beach wedding this year, I am looking for ideas on an outfit that meets these criteria: comfortable in warm weather / ethically sourced/manufactured / hat recommendation: I typically go with ballcaps on the weekend but anything classy with a brim (for the sun) would be good / I'm an adult male. Links to suggestions are welcome, thank you.

Last week I bought a new leather wallet from a luxury goods company. I've had it for less than a week and the leather smells like weed. Is there any way to get this smell out of the wallet? [more inside]

About three years ago, I let myself get a fancy hairdryer (pricier than drugstore, not as expensive as a Dyson), and it made my long, fine hair look and feel great. About six months later, it started shaking, and smoke and a burning smell soon followed. I replaced it with a different fancy hairdryer. Less than a year later, it refused to turn on. After months of bad hair, I bought a dryer identical to my first fancy hairdryer. Yesterday, it wouldn’t turn on. I’ve had it for less than six months. What is going on? [more inside]

I bought this Uniqlo polyester fleece in November. It's already thoroughly squidged in pressure areas. Is there any way of re-fluffing it, or is it a goner? A clothes brush doesn't penetrate.

I have literally never worn white clothes before. I’m starting to. The reason I’ve never worn whites is because I’m a messy puppy. I want and need to keep my whites nice, bright, unstained, and crisp. Please share your LIFESTYLE and LAUNDRY tips for maintaining pristine whites. [more inside]

I'm attending an exhibition opening in a major European Antiquities museum as an outside creative who worked on a display - does this require me to wear anything more than pressed slacks and a blazer? a tie? Talk to me like I'm an older guy who generally avoids formal-ish gatherings, has zero fashion sense, who's current wardrobe is strictly work-from-home and doesn't know anyone else attending well enough to ask advice.

I know light colored suede is fated to eventually stain or get dirty, but I fell in love with a pair of espadrilles, and I'd like to give them the best chance this summer. Which of the many sprays out there can I trust to protect the light colored suede and not to stain it when I apply the spray? [more inside]

I loved Aritzia TNAChill leggings. I am not a fan of their new cotton legging, the Hold It - they added more spandex, which makes it tighter and less breathable. The Chill were perfect for, well, chilling. Other specifications below: [more inside]
