Few writers can highlight the absurdity of this era, and make you laugh out loud, like Dave Holmes. Today, Holmes, an Esquire editor-at-large, takes aim at Senator Lindsey Graham's suggestion that Donald Trump should be the next pope. Surely, it's a joke, but the idea—as well as the most bombastic rhetoric around Pope Francis's death—throws a spotlight on some nauseating hypocrisy.

And hella conspicuous, a shelf filled with hats for all 32 Teams, one of whom Shedeur held faith would make him a high first-round pick. Then the shock. |

There's an ease that comes with age—and a sense of selfhood that's established over decades of style mistakes and style victories. Lessons learned, in other words. But there can be pitfalls too. Great clothes are for everyone, but cutting-edge trends are usually a younger man's game. What you need in your 50s is a concise, reliable, low-intervention arsenal of pieces and styling hacks that will make you look and feel good, without even a thought for the minefield of avant-garde fashion. |
