Post #27: Something to Note - MRPORTER.com

           After finally deciding to click on an ad link that kept popping up on a website that I frequent, I stumbled upon http://www.mrporter.com. MR PORTER is the somewhat new brother site to e-commerce superstar Net-A-Porter (created by Nathalie Massenet). The site is an online shopping source for designer brands for men and carries designers such as Lanvin, Yves Saint Laurent, and Burberry. 
           The website is extremely user friendly and is broken down into seven sections: designers, clothing type, shoes, accessories, "the journal" (which includes spotlight reports on different men as well as trends), a style directory, and a wardrobe manager (which will give the indecisive or overwhelmed man recommendations). But what particularly caught my eye was the last male spotlight on 48-year-old Mad Men star, John Slattery. In The Journal, Slattery was photographed in various modern yet put together combinations. Let's call it the modern "Mad Man" for the 21st century.
