Fashions are really evolving. Did you know that the trends we have today were also the trends in the past, they are just evolving so that it would fit today. Here's an odd bit of trivia for you – some people have been asking what Beau Brummel shoe polish was. Beau Brummel, for those who haven't heard the before, was an advocate of men's high fashion, and was instrumental in the invention of the modern men's suit. He was actually named George Brummel, and here's the skinny – he would routinely spend 5 HOURS getting dressed, every day, including cleaning his teeth and bathing. (Then, a daily bath was unheard of.) He was what came to be referred to as a dandy. But anyhow, he recommended that men polish their boots with CHAMPAGNE. That's right – Beau Brummel shoe polish is shoe polish – if a person were to follow this regimen, they'd need payday loans to keep up.
