HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part II - Page 2171  

Your forum name and this quote are gold.

We're definitely on the same shoe wavelength today; I had the same thought. This shot, however, looks smashing:

Not really MC but I won't have much excuse to wear a suit for a month and I figure I may as well see reactions from the other side. Trying out black+khaki to copy my hero ARNOLD.

Blue Challenge/First pictures on this board ever. I will have to have my wife take pics for me when I get home, I really underestimated how hard it is to take good pictures!

Be gentle!

So after the fact I realized that my PC is messed up

Suit is BB custom (not for me)
Tie is LaSalles (bluish gray, I hope the picture captures it)
Shirt is BB extra slim fit w/ Ainsley collar
PC is random
Shoes are Luigi Borrelli (made by Sutor)

Cheers HF! Yeah a nice pair of black cap-toe lace-ups are on my list...may have to wait for my 41st in May however

Hello all. I have not posted in about a month due to the fact that my organization had a reduction in force (RIF) and I was one of the 42 people that got released. All is not lost though. I got my separation package January 18 at 9:00 am. Had a job interview that same day at 11:00 am and I just got notified today that I was hired and I will be heading to Abu Dhabi in the U.A.E. the first week in March. I am excited and can not wait to leave. Anyone here ever lived/worked in Abu Dhabi? Now my input for the blue challenge.

Those shoes.....

Congrats on your quick getting back in track.

You'll have an easy enough time but it's a place where I'd feel pretty guilty about many things. A lot of shady practices going on behind the scenes to put it lightly, and on my ban list of places I'd consider visiting or working at. Summer is hell there as well but luckily you'll be well off enough that you can spend most of your time where there is air conditioning.

Don't want to scare you though; you're not one of the people that it's a bad place for.

In related news, I was also released because my school can't afford to hire me again (I reached the top of the payscale).

last day before the office remodel, and oh shit I wore lots of blue, so it's SW&D style Friday Challenge






bespoke shirt / uniqlo hoodie / RB11 denim / pam164 / c&j bremner in taupe / nex-5 on a&a blue silk cord

Not bad, Achilles. The detail shots surprised me with quality I didn't expect from the first pic.

Unbutton that top jacket button, though. It's screaming to be set free.

I like it. You even make the cropped trousers look pretty good, which is not something I thought possible.


Well done on taking the plunge. The suit jacket is straining a bit at the top button; try unbuttoning it. I suspect it may roll nicely to about 2.5 at least.


Still can't believe you're in your forties. Looking well for it. Do you keep a scary portrait in the attic?


Congratulations on the rapid turnaround. Hope you enjoy the new job!

Shhhhh!

Coming from you too, conservatism is pretty funny indeed.


Not a bad combo at all. Unbutton that top button...that is a 3/2 roll, not a hard 3 buttoner.

Mike

Point taken, the top button shall be unbuttoned

Thank you for the pointers

I'm fine with people being too nice to criticize today's fit (I admit, I forced the issue a bit). The suit is a machine washable/cotton suit that seems to fit in the shoulder area, but not around the waist so much. My question to the group is two-fold: 1) Do people typically get these altered, or, since I bought it used for a song, should I just scrap it altogether? 2) If the answer to 1 is "keep it" is the inevitable wrinkling an acceptible part of the look? Fire away!
