I had occasion to go to Boston this past weekend, and had occasion also to bring a suit, and a camera. The results are as below (and apologies for the picture quality - my point-and-shoot isn't quite as good at detail as my DSLR). Warning: Spoiler!(Click to show)
Nice background for a change. Far less distracting.
Suit: Messini Charcoal DB
Shirt - Cottonwork Thomas Mason purple gingham (an early collar of mine I really don't like)
Tie: Henry Carter Neckwear Navy Grenadine un-lined 7 fold
Shoes: Black 1880 Loake Knightsbridge
How exceedingly clever of you to bring an ensemble that coordinates with your hotel room!
I can assure you that the effect was entirely intentional - NOT.

It was not a business trip, and the ensemble was chosen for its rather striking visuals much more than its appropriateness for the situation for which it was worn, but it met with some admiration, nonetheless.

ok ok fine, just because i has stripes doesn't make it mafioso. in fact, while a description would make this everything I dislike about wearing suits and overcoats and ties and what not, the pictures obviously paint a completely different image. I don't know if it's your jubilant youthful expression or the over-the-top cufflinks or the pocket watch or that (silk?) scarf, but when assembled together in this manner i must say you look like a smashing chap ~_~
and now I imagine you to be great company over a nice pasta dinner ... is this true ?
i'm going to quote your pics over on the other side just because how much i like this outfit as an ensemble. with your permission, of course.
