I gotta say... My tastes might be much more sedate than this, but this challenge is all kinds of awesome. Good choice, T.

Some great fits in here thus far.

Wish I could participate, I'm traveling today though :(

It's the first time I'm wearing a tie for a belt, and I have to say, it's not as bad as I thought it would be. It's a little silly, but it matches the outfit. I don't think I'd do it with a more sedate jacket though, it would stand out too much. Looking forward to your fit, and I hope you'll feel better!

Couldn't find a brooch that looked anything but ridiculous, so I went with a tie clip I inherited from my grandad.

Navy striped linen/cotton 3/2 jacket. Purple checked shirt. Gold knit tie. Light tan belt. White chinos. Light tan longwings. Sockless.

You asked for peacock, so that's what you're getting! I had a hard time finding odd accessories, and after searching my apartment I came up with nothing. Until I figured I could use the very thing that was hanging around my neck as an accessory, Fred Astaire style. So, without further ado, my first challenge entry:
Alright, there goes my P-cawk attempt...
P-cawked or Ferkakt - you be the judge.
these are all great. monkey man bringing that HEAT!!! not sure i should get involved in this one. diaz - really like the combo and fit. i know you prefer the fuller fit on the pents, but i would like to see them a tad slimmer. just my preference, do your thing of course.

Me telling Chicago's 50 degree mid-May stretch to go to hell. Will attempt to post better pictures later. Odd accessory is a barely visible tie clip.

Edited to try to get a slightly better picture of the jacket.
