Sir, I'm sorry, but I'm going to need to check your SF members card. Where is your rakishly off center tie dimple? happy.gif

Yes, yes I know, my only defense is that the tie is so damn thick that it's near impossible to get even a small dimple in. I'll be handing my SF membership card in at the end of the day shog[1].gif

Cappelli makes a tie with this exact same print, but this one is from Drake's smile.gif

It's now clear, but colder in NYC - time to break out a hat, along with another three-piece suit.

Suit - BB
Shirt - H & K
Tie - Marino Gabbri
Cufflinks - Longmire
PS - Ashear
Shoes - Harris, via Barney's NYC

Oh, and IMO the tie is ugly and you should tuck the pocket square down a bit so it shows just a quarter inch or so.

"...the tie is ugly..." Well, this is a bit harsh--especially without offering a suggestion. While Kai's tie is not my cup of tea, I am all for letting the gentleman experiment.

Experimenting with a couple poses here. Any other comments, critiques? Review? Anything I should burn?

  I like the way the red goes with the color of the sportcoat and white dress shirt. I might try a solid red one with a brown sportcoat I have but I have to get it tailored first. Thanks!
