And there was a new belt from Equus at the post office waiting for me, so I couldn't resist trying it on:
I agree that if he could pull off a fluorescent marital aid attached to his forehead, it would be pretty damn next level. In reality, though, I am not sure where the urge to take a risk stand out for taking a risk in classic dressing comes from. You want to be a little different and still acceptable in court, leave the neon socks behind and work on your conversation skills. Not saying yours aren't great, just that in the environment in which this thread (mainly) exists, standing out because you are interesting is much better than standing out because your socks are.
To be honest I hope this is a joke. I really do not like the shirt.I just blew 200 bucks today on this John Smedley polo---the fabric is thin and feels fabulous....but most important, how does it look and fit? Should I return? Now's your chance to let loose and vent all that frustration and bitterness...be brutal(ly honest)...
This is great, the only issue are the socks and shoes. Otherwise I really like the look, this is YOUR best one yet. Great job
Nothing wrong w/ subtlety. In fact, in a world full of people trying to stand out, it may be the greatest of risks. And iammatt wasn't making a judgment about Lufty's conversational skills. He was just saying that, in general, a lawyer who wants to stand out does so better by what he says than by what he wears.Quote:
I guess, but while I can see that this is well put together and it's all sound and obeys the rules, it's nothing I would think was remarkable. For my tastes, and this is where style is simply a matter of personal taste, it errs a little too much on the side of safety. It's only my opinion, but the step up from this is to be able to take a risk or two and carry it off.
Disclaimer: everything in luftvier's outfit is better quality than anything I own, so I am probably just jealous!
