CBD WAYWRN: An Experiment - Page 78

Not keen on the collar or flower - otherwise looks good.
It's certainly business apropriate - and the tweed is subtle enough for most environments even if it is probably more mildly conservative rather than CBD. I like it.
Thanks. I'd describe the colour as more wine than purple (the close up is truer than the full length shot, but it's not a true burgundy).

Fair enough

The square is a simple map print of London.

The tie is a wool/silk blend with a more pronounced textural contrast beetween the fuzzyness of the wool and the silk - It probably won't make you like it any more.

I'll post one this afternoon.

Finally a day without important meetings! I'm so not CBD today - and I can't even count the number of ways I'm breaking rules and SF consensus (forgive me father Manton) - but I got used to stopping by here so I will place this NCBD day in spoiler tags à la Holdfast.

that is the best sportcoat i've seen posted on sf. bravo

I like that shirt.

Not sure what the bigger sin is - navy pants or the grey jacket. I'll go with the navy pants because I'm wearing a grey jacket today.

I was going to say the same thing, but I didn't know the term - self stripe - good to know.

The jacket, as has already been said, is awesome. The shirt is great because the pattern looks pixellated up close and it just looks really interesting to my eye. The outfit is probably CLD (L = leisure) more than CBD, but perhaps fits within the broad definition of CBD as has been established in this thread.

I'd say LBD since I am actually at work today.


Grey solid jacket, crazy plaid shirt, spread button-down collar, no tie with the sport coat, a pocket square without a tie, argyle socks and frankenshoes. I think I covered a lot of no-no's here But you make a good point that I could definitely have added navy trousers in the mix

Great jacket indeed. So great that I don't mind the shirt, belt, socks and shoes.
