What happens after hundred of queers spend a week together on a mountaintop? Do they forget each other? Fall in love? Meet up every year? I don’t know about all those, but I do know that some of the kids who have attended Autostraddle’s bi-annual A-Camp event get together and organize a 25 days of dapper project wherein they bless the rest of us with daily pictures of their sexy selves via our Facebook feed all December long.
Now we’re bringing their pictures to Autostraddle so that everyone can enjoy the dapperness. Feel free to live through them vicariously if you got a dress instead of the wingtips you were hoping for this morning or drop by just to let them know how handsome they look.
So seductive.

So I just discovered my top 25 favorite pictures
Hey girls hey.
And even though there are way more than 25 beautiful queers here… I ain’t complaining.
hey.
also can I just note that my beautiful dapper girlfriend is in this lineup?? WOOT. FTW. :)
now I am curious who this is!!
So, dapper = hipster glasses and vests in at least half of these shots. Such a done look. Can we not branch out a bit more?
Go scrooge someplace else. This was something we all had fun doing. And every single one of us felt loved and supported. Which means it was a win.
What she said. And some of us have hipster glasses because we’re super nerdy and blind and our coke bottle glasses don’t like to fit in dainty frames. If that just happens to be overdone, at least I still have comfy glasses out of the deal.
may i direct ya’ll to a post about that can say it better than me? sorry if it’s better to drop it but i wanted to share http://episodesandparallels.tumblr.com/post/35103341069/lets-talk-about-this-negative-tumblr-shit-that
I thought it was “Dapper = Women who dress like the Tenth and Eleventh Doctor.” I never see this look on women irl. If it’s overdone in your neighborhood, send them my way. Hello, Sweetie…
#55 Rascals for Life. Just sayin’
YES! <3

I just can’t believe I’m in an autostraddle article! :O best xmas ever <3<3<3

i feel the same way! i cant believe it!
Proud friend right here! You look awesome hun! ^__^
I WANT TO DATE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU
Ooof. You’re all too sexy.
PS Number 24 looks so skeptical of her sunglasses. I would totally volunteer my time to persuading her of the cuteness of said sunglasses.
Damn, now I really want a tie.
HELL yes. Stay fresh.
This could have served as my wish list this year, in more ways than one.
Dog and owner in matching sweater vests I CAN’T EVEN
JEN AND HER XMAS LIGHT HAT TYPE THING SITUATION. JEN AND HER DOG. HAVILAND. BOW TIES AND SWEATERS AND SOCKS. EVERYONE IN THIS FUCKING GALLERY. GOODNESS FUCKING GRACIOUS, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL.
yes, it was necessary to shout for the entirety of that comment. duh.
#3, where did you get your glasses and/or brand name of your awesome frames! This ‘mo has got to know! Thanks, AS for this absolutely fab post!
I second that!awesome glasses, daniela! so @doubleornothing, where did you get them?
hi hi! @thatssogrey, Lina, I got them in this little local store in Rhode Island. They are tommy hilfiger, I think? I mean, I know, but I don’t want to fully acknowledge it.
So awesome to see so many sexy and familiar faces!
That’s it.
I just need to move to the Northern Hemisphere.
How can everyone who reads this site be so adorable? I think that should be statistically impossible but it’s apparently not.
I’ve stumbled upon heaven. Glorious. Dapper. Heaven.
<3
DING DONG. Some of the cutest bowtie / festive jumper / patterned shirt combos ever!
I realized while looking through these that a year ago, I hadn’t found Autostraddle yet, and I thought I had no interest whatsoever in fashion. Although I knew I was genderqueer by that point, I thought that since I am technically female, fashion = women’s fashion. I am so glad that I realized at some point that I can dress great by being dapper instead of feminine. I am now actually sort of into fashion, and it feels so bizarre to admit that.
It’s kind of like when I realized I like girls after always assuming I was straight, except this time I realized I like fashion after years of thinking of fashion as frivolous and boring.
Damn! So many dapper dames!
This gallery is awesome and this looks like so much fun. You all are definitely style inspirations to this men’s-department-shy commenter (who is now breaking out of third person wtf that was weird)…as well as being dapper as FUCK.
I didn’t realize that this was already posted!! It is so weird seeing my face on this website, even after camp photos and all that. Also, y’all are pretty cute.
I *still* cannot get over how fucking fierce you look. Like. Sweet Jesus Dayum.
@paper0flowers: 2 thumbs up for Papi!! ^__^
Just got back from a straight-as-fuck family visit to Hawaii where I felt super out of place, gender-performance-wise. Coming home to this gallery almost brought me to tears. You all look so fly. Thanks for reminding me that we look damn good in our dapper clothes, and that I’m not alone in thinking so.
my brain just exploded from looking at so many styles to steal.
This is so wonderful
