My 1st attempt. Pink seersucker shirt, pink lapel flower, and pink/navy striped socks. I decided to hold off on the gators...this time.

Not happy with how I look today, really. Not ensemble-wise, but fit-wise. This jacket makes me look pregnant, but it is the only summer jacket I have available right now and decided to wear my only pink shirt today, so I'll submit anyways

Congratulations! In seriousness, I disagree with that, though it could be because of your pose. You look good there, comfortable, at ease, well done, and not in the least bit gestating. The jacket's a nice colour as well. EDIT: I'm wearing a pink shirt today, actually. We'll see if I can manage some decent photos to submit. Doubtful, so I may just submit some terrible photos.

I want to get the jacket re-done bespoke, because I really love the cloth. It's Holland & Sherry pincord from the cotton classics book. But it is indeed an extremely ill-fitting jacket (was my first ever MTM attempt). I'm posing with hands in my pockets to hide that fact, so the actual ensemble, and not the fit, gets the attention

This is very nice. Burgundy and pink look great together. I think a darker pair of shoes would have worked better. The current shoe color is too close to the color of the pants. I think a wine colored shoe would have been perfect.
