HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part II - Page 2140  

Not me, the SF consensus/groupthink. I will tie them myself from time to time. I even have proof.

There is nothing wrong with my knot, except the off center dimple, which I quite like and left intentionally.

Plopped the hat on for the picture--no, I don't actually wear it indoors.

As for why I have a dopey expression on my face or why I appear to be leaning? No idea. My pants do actually break at the same length.

- oh come on dude ... stop commenting? ... its the internet FFS ... if you dont care about my opinion, you are 100% entitled to that ... but to tell me to stop commenting?
- use the ignore button ... or you can pull a jacob kozin and sue me for libel and defamation
- lol @ calling me bi-polar because i disagreed with your opinion on a knot. this is not high school ... we all dont have to agree and circle jerk 100% of the day. stop using the forum to prop your self esteem!!
- your opinions about me have been relayed to me by your sources ...lol


- Welcome back HF ...
- Talking of coming back, where is MoK, TC, oldog/oldtrix and a bunch of the other regulars? I know you are reading this ... you are missed

A four-in-hand knot with a spread collar shirt is one of the first pieces of SF consensus that I tried and liked - my first sip of the communal Kool-Aid.

New Moon on Monday...

Stay safe in the Chi PA ... i hear a storm of epic proportions is coming your way.

I had you on ignore, but ignore on SF blows. It still shows your post, just hides the text. It is worthless and really is just an enticement to take someone off of ignore.

Further, I don't come here looking for a circle-jerk, nor do I lack self-esteem. However, your commentary is often condescending and insulting when there really is no genuine reason for it...and this is not only commentary directed towards me, but towards others as well. I am not the only one to notice it, just maybe the only one with a big enough mouth to mention it in public.

The rest of that crap up there ^^^^^ is more HS than I can muster myself.

Mike

Thanks. First day back, I can do classic. I'll get bored of it again soon.


Leaning aside, looks good.


Thanks Nii. Agreed on the others!

I think it's possible to read niidawg's posts like that, but you have to remember that it's easy to misinterpret something written only in text. For what it's worth, I think he merely speaks in a familiar, joking style and I don't find it offensive. It read it like the way an older brother or close friend would speak. If anything, I prefer to see more criticism, less praise in this thread.

I like the shirt & tie combo. I, for one, like purple in its various hues. However, I would suggest trying a different color pocket square, perhaps something opposite the color wheel, and see if you like the outcome. It's harder to have a pocketsquare complement rather than match, but the result is generally much more interesting. See HF's example below.


The tie: I like the idea. See if you can find one in the same color, but less shiny. Also, have you thought about slimming the jacket sleeves? It's a simple procedure that takes OTR to a higher level. Of course, it should be said that first you'd have to start slimming your shirt sleeves as well, and then it's just $$$$$


Fuller trousers look great on you. I especially like the shirt/tie. Great way to take the security guard look to a higher level


Nice collar roll. Glen plaids are always difficult to photograph well - if it's not hi-rez or a huge pic, it always looks distorted, at least on my screen.


Nice pieces all around. Good to see you back.


Classic look. You take what's best from the 50s and make it work for you. Well done. Small nitpick: dark brown shoes might be better.


Nice colors, Nii. The tie = grenadine?


Welcome to Central Industrial.

Welcome back HF... Im back in proper clothes tomorrow. Still digging out from the avalanche we had in NY.

Thanks! Good to be back. Well, in suits and on SF, that is. Not so much back in the cold.


You must be feeling the same temperature shock as I am. At least it was bright and sunny today. I don't think I could have faced an overcast and cold day.

Thanks. They actually are dark brown, they just didn't photograph well. Here's a better shot:
