She's dressed up like that trad woman meme and I can't unsee it lol but you both look great together. Cheers
What's trad?
@@moorshound3243traditional
Augustina is very nicely dressed, but she should lose that "smart" watch...
@@herbtube7824 yes a nice little Omega would be better.
@@moorshound3243 If you haven't got an answer yet, let me. It's sort for traditional. June Cleaver is the likeliest template for this look.
The point about old money is that if you don't have it you never will.
Wym?
And if you have it, you can lose it within a generation 😆
@@Abraham-ru7ggbecause "old money" is inherited, hence the name.
I do agree on this but would like to add that some people aren’t raised with this style but do have it in them to pull it of once they discover it, in my eyes that is what this channel is mainly about: to find and teach the young guys who have the determination, willingness, manners and or physical appearance to pull of this style about this style. Those that do not have what it takes will fail but only the right guys with the right attitude will be able to take away from these videos and succeed in wearing this style with confidence.
Some people who are born into this style don’t have it in them to continue life with this style and will become like most of genz but for example this guy was a goth before and now you would almost think he was raised in Buckingham palace.
@@Wannabearborist I'm talking about the money, not the style. i get it that it's shorthand, but what is called "old money" nowadays is actually plain, boring elegance.
Yes, bring the Lady back. She brings honesty and wisdom to the table in a very pointed way with out being overly critical. I hold her opinion in high regard. I am new to this channel and will be coming back often. Good work! By the way, I am 53 and I am so glad more younger men are taking style and manners seriously again!
Thank you Scott! As the channel name suggests, it is my ambition to bring classic style and manners to my generation, but it's also important to me that everyone can enjoy my videos.
I certainly will bring Augustina back for a video soon. Do you have any suggestions for what you would like her to react to/comment on next?
@Gent.Z For now, her opinions on footware and accessories would be most important. Many guys can improve their look by investing in quality shoes, boots, and a good watch. A great belt can work wonders as well.
I was thinking footwear would be a good video! It's definitely something women have strong opinions on, but many men overlook. I will record this one soon! Thank you for the suggestion@@scottbailey9242
Ralph Lauren ads used to have men in their ads with sweaters tucked in circa 1985...
It was once very stylish, maybe not now.
I had no money in college, yet still dressed old money. I was a Kappa Sig, who went to an old boys catholic high school. Today, I have money, and dress old money, still. If you remember anything gents, don’t buy cheap shoes. Nice video my friend. Your girlfriend has good taste, like my wife of 30 years. Semper Fidelis, Lieutenant Colonel, U.S. Marine Corps (Retired) and now a C-Suite executive 🇺🇸
Looking Old Money (ironically) has little to do with how much money you have! And while I suggest affordable styles in many of my videos, you're right that shoes are the worst thing to cheap out on. And I'm speaking as someone who has made that mistake a few times 😅
Excellent comment. ✅😎
That is actually quite interesting, I was recently initiated into the brotherhood in March of this year. I notice that a lot of the guys in our fraternity dress similar to how you've described and I've found myself becoming more and more fascinated by the sort of aesthetic. AEKDB, Brother !
@@aethxathr9327 AEKDB. Brother, continue to be a good man. Be loyal to your loyal friends. Take calculated risks. Exercise, dress appropriately for the occasion, and seek a purpose greater than self. 🇺🇸
This channel is criminally underrated!
Offensive pants? Well, there you go. I love those sky-blue colour pants.
To each his/her own! But I think it was just the fit she didn't like, as opposed to the color.
I wouldn’t call it old money
I call it classic
Def. great video. Bring her back. I worry about some of the Brooks Brothers clothes I purchased recently (mostly casual ones tbh) because they're trying to appeal to the streetwear crowd and i like classic/traditional looks even though I'm a new age/law of attraction type.
Good idea to include Augustina's POV. I would also enjoy hearing Jeeves' evaluation on these ensembles as well.
Your girl friend is your secret weapon you should do more videos with her she’s great
"You can break rules, but it's helpful to know them first..." is wild! Clear violation!
No. In Music the same phrase applies. To creatively and tastefully break the rules of music theory you first need to know them.
it is good to have the ladies perceptive .
My main issue with the 'old money' look is that too often you'll look like a complete twat if you try it. Imagine wearing a cricket jumper on a night out in Manchester. You'd have your own blood on it before too long. Old money outfits work great if you're attending a polo match or a regatta. If you live on a council estate in Wigan, they're not going to help much. My experience has been that it's better to have your own sartorial style, and base it on the Four Commandments of dressing well;
-Put some thought into your outfit
-Choose your shoes wisely; women WILL notice them
-Put your outfit on with care
-Forget you're wearing it. Nothing looks worse than a self-conscious man trying to look cool.
almost impossible to wear a cricket jumper, especially white, without looking like a douche flex. I wear a navy cricket but temper it with a denim shirt. I like the contrasting sprezzatura style of preppy cowboy.
Kind of depends, though. There's not a lot of difference between some of the more casual fringes of old money aesthetic and the archetypal 80s hooligan look (Ralph Lauren polo shirts, Sergio Tacchini tennis sweaters, Burberry accessories, etc). And tbf, you'd look as much of a twat wearing an Adidas trackie at Henley Regatta as you would wearing a blazer and cricket sweater on a Wigan council estate. Different outfits for different occasions...
The main thing I dislike about the old money aesthetic is the name and its implications, because real old money dresses like complete shite (tatty cardigans, muddy boots, corduroy trousers that have been handed down across 9 generations and the like). Not to mention the fact that if you're curating a specific aesthetic (one made popular on fucking Instagram no less) it doesn't seem very authentic to me. I have no problem with the clothes per se (shit, I own 2 cricket sweaters myself), but much more of a problem with people trying to curate a specific "image" they copied off social media, no matter what that image is).
@@3581tossit I live in a region where wearing anything smart at all, even chinos and a sports jacket, is universally considered to be the mark of a douche flex, so I learned not to care about what assumptions others make about one's clothes long ago😂 always liked cricket sweaters myself, I have one navy and one white. I like to combine the white one with a plaid shirt and my leather and sheepskin flying jacket personally, while the navy one I find works best with a striped or patterned shirt and a light-coloured jacket or suit.
Who cares, you should wear smart clothing no matter where you are, council estate or a dive like Manchester, I walked down the road in Manchester getting shouted at by tracksuit and trainer wearing men in their 30's and 40's who were stood outside some nasty pub, you think I gave two sh#ts what they said or thought of me? It was sad really because they were supposed to Men much older than I at the time but they were dressed like children and they were acting like children and this is now the "norm"? We must strive to be the change we want to see in this world, so be polite dress well practice kindness and forgive others as they know not what they do.
When you are doing your solo videos you should pretend your girlfriend is there or you are talking to her because in this video you are much more relaxed and engaging on camera.
How about the timeless Cary Grant look. E.g., In movie To Catch a Thief on the Riviera. in addition to his more casual look.
I'm a big fan of Cary Grant and I also have a video dedicated to his style
Thanks for having the beautiful lady and her input. 🧡
It is very important to me what women “think “.
I always ask my wife for her opinion before I buy or wear anything. I dress for my wife and woman and not men. ✅😎
Well said, Edward! Thank for the comment
I kind of changed completely both my way of clothing *and* my mindset when I was 19 (long, long ago). I *fully* endorse your points on most issues regarding this and can only recommend your views. Gen Z, millennials and, to be honest, even older guys need these insights very badly. Keep on the good work!
I don´t understand the fuss about white dress shoes. They are just beautiful and great color for summer. What is there not to believe in? When it comes to classic clothing, most of this style is great. The only problem might be, that some men wear this chunky shoes like James said or other flaws. Regarding the sweater, it is ok to me. Looking at the picture, it fits to the man and of course thick clothing is always littlebit lumpy, but the point is to keep you warm, right? So no problem there.
I agree with her 100%. She's got a good eye for what looks good and what doesn't. You should bring her back more often.
The white shoes are “white Bucks” Buckskin. You also see them in a brown beige. They have been around sine the 30’s
Classic old school prep👍
i find apple watches and similar a crime :)
Yeah, and the Tesla Truck. I mean.. sorry, it's super fugly.....
yes!@@steve19811
Agree! I like to use technology but I don't like to look like technology
@@sprezzatura8755 your username tells me you are a man of culture!
Gentlemen, buy an iron and an ironing board. Learn how to use it. It may take some trial and error, but you'll learn. You don't want your good clothes to look like they double as pajamas. Ahhh! When did white pants with everything come back in style?
You're very correct, Craig. I think white pants look good in the summer. This 'old money aesthetic' is very summer-oriented. Although, honestly, it seems to have died off since I made this video.
She’s very cute, but I would rather see what you’re talking about a bit more, the pictures a bit more on the screen. Love hearing her 👍 (And you as well! 😊)
I think it’s awesome that you got your girlfriend to give her feed back on the different styles that fall under the old money aesthetics which helps us as men I just wonder if this perspective and like also applies to other women of nationality.
The left outfit is quite well composed. The problem is the location, that looks like NYC, not a picturesque seaside town.
Hello. What do you think about "plus fours" (real Knickerbocker)?
She's gorgeous. White bucks look great with a crisp linen suit.
How did she hate on that brooks brother add? That was pure class
A pin-striped suit should never be worn casually unless it is a wide-spaced stripe and worn as a seperate with jeans, or pin-striped trousers with a contrasting knit sweater or a linen shirt.
Very informative and interesting video. And having Agustina’s input was a huge plus. I definitely vote for bringing her back… Thanks so much for everything you do!!
Y'all are gorgeous!
Could you do a gentleman’s guide for groomsman or general wedding etiquette? (Including plus one rules?
I am german, Brittas boyfriend. During guided historical tours i visited a number of castles, where i saw the noble owners. Some had been dressed in english country gentleman style, some in german country gentlemans style, one in classic german hunters dress.
"Old Money" is a trend, nor should they wear "Ivy League", etc. Gentlemen should not wear trends, they should wear classic men's wear. If that includes elements of old money or ivy then it is fair, but one shouldn't try for an entire time period/trend. If you want to see a chunky shoe, check out Doc Marten's loafers; I say a few pairs today.
Love it. Great job. Augustina (spelling) adds a great commentary. I love Italian loafers and wear them most days. Also supple textured knits
Thanks Darby, a pair of loafers with a sweater thrown over on a chilly day is a great look
She is not a fan of white bucks shoes but she likes white sneakers. Interesting.
Well, sometimes we can enjoy a color on one style of shoe, but not the other. So I understand her point of view
cricket sweater is a classic, disagree completely
I believe she nails it everytime.
Like the toe being off with the cheesy guy.
I would never dress for a woman, any woman. They are too emotional and quickly change their opinions. I dress for myself, and it works well.
Well said
I think the last comment Augustina made was the most accurate and relevant. Everything else is subjective. Especially that all but 2 guys in your sample photos are models, I think they can get away with wearing a lot more than what normal fat, short, bald, disproportional bodied men can't pull off. With women it's more about the looks, build and height of the man than his clothes. If you put a well dressed short bald ugly guy next to a tall muscular well chiseled jawlined model wearing thongs and a t shirt; I guarantee she will always pick the better looking guy than the best dressed. And there's nothing wrong with that because it's an instinct humans are drawn to attractiveness for procreation of our species. But to judge clothing style is an individual choice. To be honest I don't find Augustina's style was to my preference. That 1950s dress and headband reminds me of the Happy Days era. A bit outdated for modern times. She was also wearing an Apple watch which was offensive. However, if she looked like a supermodel I'm sure I would overlook her style mistakes
I think she looks classy as hell and even though you can tell she is American you can tell she was raised well (has class).
"cricket sweater looks lumpy"
next picture: 10/10 cricket sweater on a 10/10 guy haha
The bar is low. 😂
Sad but true!
If she were in Utah people would think she was a polygamist wife. That is exactly how they dress.
Interesting. I like her style very much. Can't say the polygamist lifestyle is for me though.
@@Gent.Z What’s old is now new.
I’m guessing the men like the polygamist lifestyle more than the women.
Love it. Great job
A tucked in sweater is a major fashion crime.
She's "Offended " by a pair of pants! Just SMH !
yes, that was overstated
Woooooooow ! You are both classic people of London ❤
This guy definitely tweezes his eyebrows. Looks off.
You guys are lovely together
I can never get used to trousers being called "pants", especially by a Brit. The idea of ironing my pants is hilarious although I think Mr Bean does that.
Really felt like I was vibing with these two until she mentioned being in middle school when I was 25…
How can you not like the white shoes!!
What they call a "cricket sweater" we in the US would call a tennis sweater.
What Iman Gahdzi was wearing was far from “Old Money” in my opinion it is the embodiment of Neuvo Riche. Pin stripe suit with sneakers and white t shirt and a pocket square. I stand corrected, it’s old money if someone like Rod Stewart might have worn something like this in the 1970’s.
my primary problem with "old money" is that it's just, like, prep but if you wanted to look like even more like an asshole. and i like polo shirts and nice sweaters and chinos! but "old money" is all very clearly super artificial. it's just a facade to disguise a lack of self.
But it is better than 97% of the rest of the population though.
In my mind, white t-shirts are just undershirts even if they were designed to be worn as an outside shirt.
Really? Men have been wearing white t-Shirts as a regular garment since the 1950s so I'm surprised it still gives you that impression
I think it gives Generation X that impression. 1980's kids had dads who grew up from the 1940's to 50's. @@Gent.Z
The rakish gentleman with his buttons undone to reveal his tooth necklace looks like he's trying to seduce a 1980s Helena Bonham Carter character. It's way too try-hard and it's trying to combine the 'Alpha Hippy Traveller' look with 'English Gentleman on the Grand Tour' trousers.
They're white bucks and they rock!
These studies need to look at real vintage fashion . They don't give any hint at any notion of "Old Money " at all! Young boys with bangles and shirts unbuttoned ,T shirts under shiny suits! Pah!
Why did you choose the most casual outfit that Iman wears. He dresses normally very nice.
Also why are all the photos except 2 are of models. If I looked like any of those tall, well proportioned, chiseled jawed models I wouldn't care what 1950s dressed Augustina thought about my dress sense. I'd score any girl off my looks alone.
Who do you recommend to get tips from for like a 57yo man or do you have any thoughts that might help?
We ca;; it a "Tennis sweater" and it belongs on the tennis court (or at a cricket match)Pants are too dark, they say Winter and sweater says Summer.
Dude looks like old Elvis Presley
The problem with every guy you showed is they were all 6’2 and 170lbs. That’s just unrealistic.
You sound British, your girlfriend sounds American, you say you live in a "hot country"? Where in the world are you?
Karabal, in the Cassian sea.
12:40 you guys married yet? haha
T-shirts under formal jackets. No. Just no.
Well done. Your girlfriend is a dead ringer for the model on the 1978 Cars album.
The guy at 11:44 looks too tough or rugged to wear those kinds of eyewear.
Iman Gadzhi just looks like a poser, "I'm so cool I can break all the rules, look at me I'm such a rebel."
Yes. That is what he is doing and it is nonsense. There are rules, that can never be broken. That´s why they are called rules right? Wearing classic suit with just T-shirt and sneakers is really off. Suit is intended to be worn with a shirt, dress shoes and tie. Yes, even a tie is a must, because it is a natural part of a suit. If he wants to wear suit in a casual way, then he should not wear a suit, but just sport jacket and chinos. Easy as it is.
Most people, who break rules in simple things, probably break rules even in much more serious matters and I don´t like disrespectful people, who think, they can twist everything to their view. The world doesn´t work that way. This guy is not cool at all and perhaps not even confiden. That´s why he mixes modern clothing with classic one, just to fit in society much better. What is so cool about it? Nothing.
Your girlfriend's dress style looks a little old money. Shes like something out of the 1930s. How can a pair of trousers be offensive ?. Anyway good to hear a females point of view.
Geez, I actually think all of the outfits were horrible... dreadful, as a matter of fact. Their nannies should have dressed them better.
I don't like the contrasting of the soles at 2:22. It's not elegant, looks somewhat corny, and it just reminds me of those silly VANs canvas shoes.
Is your girlfriend from Argentina?
From her father’s side, yes. We are actually in Argentina visiting her family right now
More videos without your beard please.
Trousers please, not pants.
Is she Amish?
10:35 is too wannabe. Nice hair though.
