Excellent, but I would think change your shoe a chuka might work better, but then it won't show the socks, so maybe a wingtip?

you've totally missed the point of what i said, if PG's picture was like 95% of all otheres taken with a cell phone in the bathroom, then you would not be able to tell whether what he was wearing was good or not, as it is the ambiance of the image quality which makes a plain blue shirt look cool!

nailed.

imo, there's also some inside joke allowed among mates.

the ambiance adds a lot to the quality and he inspired a group of "followers" to keep the quality high.

An attempt at catching up on the weekend's posts. I've probably missed some posts I meant to include but that's life...

Nice - I like the swapped out buttons.

I worry whether Douglas knew what he was letting himself in for...

Not a combination I would ever wear, but this looks superb.

Lovely boots.

So fixated on the shoes and boots I almost forgot to say you're looking good in these shots too.

I really like this - spring fun.
I think it will be at least a week or two before I dig out the spectators - those look great.

Nice looking suit. Would be great to see it with a tie at some point.

This looks good - lovely jacket. I'd have been tempted to go with a slightly less bright red tie, but overall i really like this look.

Yes the canvas ones were the much better choice.

I like this combination a lot, but the lapel roll looks a bit odd - wind catching it?

Great suit Alan, but I'd prefer a wider tie - I'm guessing it's a trad thing?

Thank you, Kind Sir. My waistcoat collection pales in comparison to yours. One of my goals for next fall/winter is adding a few more colorful waistcoats.
