HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

^
Kill the pant roll, dude. It's just bad. Shirt looks a little jacked, but I bet if you stopped jumping around like a ten year old girl at a Justin Bieber concert it would look fine.

I like the suit quite a lot. It feels like it needs white bucks or something like that for the shoes, and a simpler tie, but your selection is OK too.

You say that, but I think this is actually pretty good. Nice, vaguely retro, tie.

Co-ordinating tie to wall is next level. Looks good, too.

Very sharp; I like. I was going to say more formal than usual for you, then I saw the socks.

Welcome! Pretty damn good, except I'd like the tie to be a shade or two lighter in colour.

Yes, but good trad, as far as my eye for that niche goes.

My first post in here so go easy:



The jacket is a Wool / Silk blend, hence the wrinkles. The picture also makes them look a lot worse.

^^^^^^^^^^^ And you went with the bathroom pic......................^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Diggin the pants, HF.
Diggin the PS, Acrid.
Luvin' Ethan's rig, parituclarly the pant taper.


Another day another jump...

Props for suiting up in that weather, Mike.
Love the shirt collar. Borrelli?

Thank you, sir.

The tie is definitely a bit bold in color.

I have worn offwhite with this and it looks good. I chose these pants for comfort. They are a very light silk and linen blend. Also, I am not afraid of blue pants.

It is an Alea shirt, actually.

Thanks, Parker.

I am familiar with the "one thing to mess it up" theory, but I don't subscribe. I think solid socks would've worked better.

Looks fine to me - I think you can afford to go this length to help out proportions. It makes you look taller.

Have a good one!

+1

I was just multiquoting to compliment the collar. I really like the jacket too.

two nice fits, both let down by the choice of footwear.

Spoozy - because of the laces/lacing, i'd go more casual with this (no tie, less structured jacket)
Mike - the black (?) soles of those shoes makes it hard to pull off in a formal type fit. Different jacket (something cotton/linen), no tie, same pants would set it off right.

this is very nice HF. I like the choice in pants. Picks off the check really well.

The shoes have a brown sole. I don't know how formal this fit is. At least, I wasn't going for something too formal. BD shirt, linen pants, triple patch pocket jacket that is extremely lightweight cashmere. The shoes I tried, and liked, so left on. They are tan suede longwings.
