ask the MB

Not sure if you should wear that Tommy Bahama shirt out tonight? The magnificent bastard is here to help. Go ahead. Ask away.

tip the MB

Relax, big spender, we want your knowledge, not your credit card info. If you know about something you think we should know about, let us know (so we can then pretend that we knew about it all along.) Send a tip.

    Ask the MB -- Renting a Tuxedo

    Q: I have a black tie wedding to attend. I don't have the financial clout to buy myself a good tux so my question is, if I'm renting what style would be the best?
    --Warren

    A: Your limited financial clout has put you between a rock and a hard place, Warren. A couple of options to consider:

    Option A: Find a formalwear rental place in your area that carries something designer and wool and with two buttons.

    Option B: For a little more money, log onto ebay and rent to own.

    Either way, avoid the $75 polyester special. When you factor in the post-wedding trip to the dermatologist, it's actually going to be the more expensive (not to mention least stylish) option.
