I'm curious as to whether you guys used to get comments from the most unlikely sources when you first started to transform your style?

On Saturday night I went out with some friends, and was talking to this lovely man I know (he's 52 and a regular at the pub my brothers frequent and used to keep a good eye on them when they were in their younger and wilder days - like their "going out Dad" LOL).

Anyway, he said to me that around a year or so ago when I first started to go out more I was always dressed nicely, but definitely had that look that I "would be home in bed by 10pm" about me... But, he said the last couple of months he has noticed that I am now going out "dressed to kill"!

This kind of shocked me because no one has really commented on any of my recent style changes, so to come from him, and for it to be a distinct description of the changes (rather than just "you are looking good these days" or similar)... well I was speechless.

Have you guys had similar experiences? Do you think people you know but aren't super close to probably are more objective because they don't see you all the time?

This just got me thinking is all LOL
