Grooming This Season
Beard season opens — set the edges early, before it looks accidental. Switch to a richer moisturizer as the air dries, and keep lip balm in the jacket pocket from October on.
Dating & Social Life
Peak dating season: walks through leaves, galleries, early dinners. Layered men read as deliberate, and fall light forgives everyone. Suggest the second location — the walk between places is where dates are won.
