burberry london shirt

no name tie

vintage linen pocket square

bar 3 macys pants (not thrifted)

bostonian captoe oxfords not the nicest but they work

 

I think the pattern on the jacket work okayish

best part is the badass lining

and my trousers have a slight break

all in all I am pretty happy total cost is something like 20 bucks since the shoes are my dads and the pants were a gift, wish me luck friends

 

Bro, are you wearing a pinstripe orphan with black pants? Uhhhh ohhhhh, the iGents are going to have a field day with that one...Killer lining though.

Why are you not wearing the suit pants? The jacket looks nice enough to my eye, but that has to be worn as a suit.

While we're on the subject, what about pinstripe trousers absent matching jacket? I would never--never--do the pinstripe jacket solo, but not sure about pants. I have several pair, but never seem to get around to rocking them. Perhaps I have answered my own question...

Yeah I normally leave them as I hate selling shirts but this one was mint and the price was very right ($5), figure I make $15 off it, some gas money.

Thanks for the idea!
It would be nice to have a unique keepsake.

I actually like that one brown floral Zegna in the 2nd photo, but that's just me. shog[1].gif

I think with pinstripe orphan pants are move forgivable. I've seen that been done before tastefully.
