Ah yes, good point.

I guess I was going for basic "minimalist" look of jeans, chinos, tshirts, sneakers, basic button downs, and knitwear/cardigans with LOTS of black, white, and navy pieces.

Based on that, I guess a "basic" sweater or leather jacket in black would work much better than what I posted.

Sounds good, but to be on the safe side and don't buy stuff you'll later regret, it'll probably be better for you to first buy more basic pieces (like the ones you mentioned) and make sure you've got fit and proportions right smile.gif

If you're looking for something that'd fill a similar purpose as that RO, and you don't already have a plain grey crewneck sweatshirt, get one. Mine is easily the most used piece in my wardrobe (except my black jeans maybe) and it is simpy put, very versatile.

I'd prefer to find a cheaper alternative, especially given that it's a 100% cotton sweatshirt. If you can point to something $200 or less, let me know.

 

 

 

Please don't wear that with chinos.  From what you described it sounds like you want a Stark or something which is right in your price range.

Wear it with khaki chinos and a blue OCBD. You know, for that "Yoox Model" look

I can get them with a 15% discount, but would it be worth it? My mind says I can get a lot better bucks than these. Any suggestions?

Check out Nordstrom. They have some very comfortable bucks at about half of the price.

I actually like those better than the all white ones.

Yeah, I've had my eye on those UW watches that are on Oki Ni. I really like them, but I agree that they are pretty pricey.

I met a guy who works at Vineyard Vines while at SXSW, which is about the worst combination of circumstances ever.

I guess John Kerry got in trouble for repping Vineyard Vines while touring Europe as part of his new role as secretary of state, haha
