Autumn stuff today. The jacket is a tad bit short, not vulgarly so though.

I like this fit, specially as a lover of BD + casual tie, but your pictures always leave me wondering - have you considered higher rise trousers? Maybe the crotch isn't hanging actually, but I don't mean that, I mean that a higher waistline may be more flattering for you.


well, yes i have. thing is though, that is where my pants are comfortable. and trying to wear them any lower, would be an act of futility, cuz ill just move em back down.

now, i may have mentioned, i think IRL the whole thing looks very different. and that whole to low pants things, is not like that. i hope one of the many SFers i have meet will chime in to confirm, because apparently...

a few iphone pics taken by my 9 year old daughter > anything that i may say. :)

I think I know what you mean. On most of my pics it also looks like my pants are sitting at my hips, when in reality they are dangerously near Urkel territory. I believe it's the camera angle

But I still think tie, shirt and belt shouldn't show below the button. Doesn't the jacket feel a bit tight down there?

does not feel tight in the slightest. :)

could be button stance, way im standing, low camera angle...... basically, a frozen moment in time fit pic will only ever get you so far. but hey, on teh internet, its live and die by these things. i need a professional photog.

FWIW the hat was always a secondary thing in my book. My only real problem was the pants fit.
Also I tend to agree w/r/t the 4-in-hand, much prefer half Windsor.


I am interested in what you think I should do to the pants. What should I tell my tailor? Thank you for your advice.

CW you're usually spot on, but this shirt in conservative business dress surroundings is leaving me cold.

EFV - You rock fall colors like nobody's business. I'm a big fan of the pants, are they cords or moleskin? Where'd you get them?

Now for my own contribution from the past two days:







I normally don't like to leave the house without a pocket square, but this has been my first week interning at a law firm and so far I'm the only one who wears a jacket... so I may need to ease into that territory slowly.
