If you haven't stopped by The Sartorialist in a little while, you need to now. Scott is currently hosting a vintage photo contest where readers can submit vintage photos of family or even strangers at their most stylish.Of course, I'm loving all of the classic styles, but the thing that I've found especially interesting is how much more focus I place on the wearer than on the clothes themselves. All of the subjects of the photos have a certain poise or swagger about them that matters so much more than what they're wearing. So all of those times your mom told you confidence is what matters --- she was right! Although a pair of killer heels or perfectly tailored pants sure doesn't hurt.
I wish I had access to my family archives to enter, but I urge all of you guys to do so if you can. Contest rules here.
