I have no idea what that says/means.

This seems like it'd be a hard color to pair but I like it and think it'd probably complement my skin tone.

I like this piece in theory, particularly the colors, but at the end of the day it's a sweater with a large stripe off center.

I don't mind graphic tees; I'm fond of this MMM one though the price is terribly offputting. And that's on sale.

How's the cashmere on BB Black Fleece?

Not my style, typically, at all but for some reason I dig this - clubwear (FOR THE BITCHES) or paired with a suit, I think it'd look pretty good. Disregard frightening mannequin and watermark.

Arethusa / whodini both share your opinion. I can see it as well. Perhaps I can wear it to my Trekkie event. Lanvin + Star Trek = profit.

Mulansauce - I'd probably not go with that one - a merino wool cardigan is a wonderful thing, but it should have patch pockets - the **** pockets just look like they're trying to make casual dressy.

And I'd say no on the arm ribbings too. Also, why go with grey and miss out on the wonderful opportunity a sweater offers for color?

but that's my opinion.

Yay or Nay on this Dark Brown Burton waistcoat.

I think it would look good paired with a nice shirt, and its on sale for a tenner!

kronik that last shirt looks like it fits way to boxy and BB fleece cashmere is really good but expensive .

Those look much better, especially since they don't have squared toes on them. I'll see if I can find something similar.

Any opinions on the brown waistcoat?

The summer's turning over and the time to wear these is getting shorter. Also, metallic laceups (lace-type shoes here?) borders on a Euro type trend that may die next summer. Very hard to pull-off, even when done well I find them questionable. Unless you have a lot of money burning and don't like saving it then I'd say Nay.
