HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

SpooPoker · Oct 21, 2011

I wasn't even going to poast today as I woke up right around the time Nii went to bed, thanks to "scawy dweams". :fu:

I love you, 4am. Largely uninspired and built on what feels most like my PJs:

Shirt is fuchsia, pants are royal purple.
Charvet
Banana republic monogram

I am really liking this ensemble Spoo. Purple is an amazing color. And the sweater looks dashing. As far as casual looks go, this is my favorite that you've put together.

Shirt and pants match way too closely, Spoo.

I know it looks that way, but they really aren't. I'll try and get a better pic.

Now I ask you gentlemen one thing. Would you tell him no?

His pants are way down. If he pulls them up, it will be fine. I think he's fine. If he gets new pants. These are bad.

That is likely his wallet. I hope so, at least.

I agree that it does appear to be too short (does not CYA)
If you decide it is too short, shoot me the measurements (I am a pretty standard 42 R and Zegna is a good fir on me, I might be interested, as I love the fabric)

A shot of the back would be useful for determining if it's long enough, as CYA is rule #1. But I think it's probably too short given the two shots you posted.

I'm not sure that's the case, at least from the side shot. There appears to be flesh in that curve....
wow. that was awkwardly worded, but whatever.

Yeah the pants look really awkward to me in that front shot. Not sure why though.

I'm fairly certain the coat is just too short. I have a friend who is going to try it on and see if it fits him, if it doesn't I'll sell it to someone here.

As to the flesh curve, that would be my gluteus maximus.

It was great having it when I was playing college football, not so great trying to fit into dress pants now that I'm done. It's slowly getting back to normal size now that i don't powerlift, but I doubt it will ever go away completely :laugh:

I have yet to find a pair of pants that fit perfectly in the butt/thigh, yet are slim enough in the waist.

He does have that 'ex-SAS and knows 37 ways to kill you with his bare hands' look about him, now you mention it. Did I mention that it was an awesome outfit?

Spoo your fit looks great.

As for the scawy dreams........it's not uncommon for toddlers to go through a stage in which these occur very frequently......like night after night......my advice is to start drinking heavily so that you can sleep through it! As the damned child care experts seem to frown on administering bourbon to children these days. God I miss my grandmother - she knew how to fix everything (milk, sugar and little Jack Daniels was her solution to just about all childhood problems).

Even if they are quite close I personally don't think it's much of a problem, as they are separated by the sweater; there is no place where the shirt fabric and trouser fabric are visible next to each other.

Victor - what camera do you use? Even the colours and image quality of your photography is impressive.
