Ah, but it's completely optional! And I can dress in suits, jeans, and tweed in successive days!

I'd say yes. And consider the source.

You can try, but you're already too late.


Four stores today. One trad belt for me, one pair Canali light gray flat front wool trou in 38 x 32, one skeet blanket for RIDONCULOUSLY cheap, one HT overcoat that's at the cleaners to see if a stain will come out, one Faconnable madras short sleeve shirt for me. I feel like I forgot something. But I think that's it.

He's suspicious of the camera, and was going to town on the bone seconds prior. He doesn't mind at all when I put on the sweater or his coat at all, and he shivers when he's outside, so I assume he wants the extra layer.

I am jealous. My wardrobe is completely limited by weather. Even though my profession is thought of to be dressy, everywhere I work is business casual. If you are wearing a coat, it is assumed you are headed to court.

You don't want to know. Really. Some good things were found, but there was more bitching. Suffice it to say lawyers get upset if you call them "crafty".

Yeah, I don't know if I could move back to the south. I love boots and outerwear too much.

Slap fest over journalism.
Everybody's on edge because we're about to be couped up with inlaws
There was a lot of territoriality going on
Find highlights: Andro found an Anderson & Shepherd, someone else found some very nice things a few posts later, a dude in my back yard found a couple of nice custom Zegnas that better not have been 42R, and I found 5 RLPL ties (shameless self promotion)
Someone left something that got Nat all hot and bothered and that I probably would have mistaken for folk art.

You forgot Nat's amazing CT jeans... Really cool and unique and DM7 would probably like those more than the tailored stuff.

I actually like the sweater.

On a funny note though, it reminds me so much about the end of a mario level jumping for the flag. banana-mario.gif
