There are many websites out there that offer articles and reviews on certain items that can be perceived as sophisticated. Two of my personal favorites are uncrate.com and coolmaterial.com. Both review expensive, as well as inexpensive things, and all of which are incredibly interesting to say the least. They are both mens blogs, and you should check them out. You might find something that you have been looking for, or something you want.

The Art of Gentle Sophistication
About Me
- Gentle Sophistication
- Gentleman who enjoy wild African safari hunts, perfectly aged whisky, well groomed facial hair, suits with coattails, top hats, and bow ties, ivory scrimshaw pipes made from the tusks of the ancient mastodon, old english sports cars, pocket watches, and the sound of a horse trotting along a cobblestone street.

Chester Old Chap, Would You Pass the Cheetos?
The newly redesigned Chester Cheetah is a much more agreeable character than the crazed, Cheeto hooligan I was used to seeing him portrayed as. The new Chester's distinguished accent and cool demeanor are a step towards true sophistication. This new Chester also has a mischievous side much like his more childish predecessor, but instead of pulling pranks he slyly suggests Cheeto infused revenge which, as everyone knows, is much more satisfying. New Chester also seems to enjoy more sophisticated activities such as chess, laboratory experiments, and mattress fort building. All in all i deem this redesign a much needed breath of fresh, gentlemanly air into Cheetos advertisements.

Your Eyes Lie
When we are not lounging around in our velvet smoking jackets, and are going for a day of cricket or some polo, we enjoy comfortable clothes just like the rest of you. youreyeslie.com is an excellent source for the well spoken man. They offer clothes are are a mix between, indie, hipster, and retro, and their shirts can be called art that you can wear. They carry shirts, jeans, accessories, sweaters and other things for both men and women. The average price of a shirt is around £23 but you can change the currency in the top menu bar so its fairly priced. Also if you sign-up for their email newsletter you automatically get a code for 10% off a purchase, and they regularly send discounts your way. Here is a few of my favorites from their collection.

Just About As Sophisticated As They Come
His name, is Bond. James, Bond. That name is uttered out of fear and respect from every evil villain ever existed. His car has changed throughout the years from Lotus, to BMW, to Aston Martin, not necessarily in that order. Originally created in 1953 by the great spy writer Ian Fleming, his first film debut was in 1962 with the excellent Dr. No. Unsurprisingly he is still proceeding forward as part of the British Secret Intelligence Service. I shouldn't have to explain how great this man is, so i won't. An explanation would not do this man justice.
