Is a shoe circle really a circle with just two people?
oh yes it is!!!
--- diaz - what is the pattern on the tie, cant tell from the pics? it looks great tho.
iangp - stylin
m0bbie - that shirt really does not belong with a suit, and you aint gonna get any love around here for a skinny burberry check tie. i get the vibe that you like "iconic" branded patterns. which is fine if thats your thing. just know its not a fave around here. also, the quasi monochrome look isnt working in that fit. sorry, dude.
And just when you thought the collar discussion was done ...
Thanks for your perfect timing Spoo. I've complimented your pics several times in the past so you know I'm not trying to pile on here , but I've always thought that your vertically striped shirts with a really thick collar band of horizontal stripes, as shown in today's pic, looks off to me. I dunno if you deliberately request or choose that, or if it's your signature look, or if it's just a consequence of your preference for taller collars, but I only notice it on your aggressively striped shirts and it always seems to spoil the congruence of your collar shape/spread/tie knot combo. All IMO of course!

It reminds me of a lad I know who paired a seersucker jacket with a horizontally striped seersucker tie. The horizontal meets vertical stripes of the same colour and scale.
A kinda-sorta formal dance Saturday night. Black and white was the theme, but not owning a tuxedo, I went with my sadly too small navy suit (with fashionably high buttoning point, as you can see). Close enough. Time for a new navy suit, though.
EDIT: Jeez, sorry guys, I didn't see the shoe shot was so blurry until it was actually posted. I never understood why folks posted blurry photo - now I know how it happens.....thx, Edited by Owen Meany - 12/11/12 at 10:25am
