NYR http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...ostcount=27750 With the gap at the top button (and a slight opening further down), it always looks as if this overcoat is being pulled apart. I don't see the pants and the jacket as working together - MBreinin had a good example a couple of days ago. I suspect the Black Watch needs something with blues or greens (or black for a DJ) to match.
You're right about the break - looking at a few of your shots at once, the lack of break makes you look shorter. Keep no-break for a minimal look in summer.
You wore glasses a few days ago - can't find the shot. Were the lenses a bit high on your eyes?
This shot was a while ago. I'm surprised nobody made comparison to the fit in the Hirofumi shot from the Sart. thread.

Moo http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...ostcount=27740 Great. One thing I've really noticed this year is how much better your colour/pattern/texture combinations work compared with last year.

Ndw http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...ostcount=27694 Full shot! And you know you need a sliver of white ps showing, don't you...

YFYF http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...ostcount=27657 As all have said, beautiful fabric, and as usual, a great fit on you. I see what someone said about the apparent narrowness on the left arm below the elbow, but I'd guess that was just caught oddly. One reason not to do a three-piece, as someone considered, is that it leaves you less scope for boldly showing off a contrasting tie

. Slightly concerned about that line above the pockets - while I'm sure the left one really is parallel with the pattern line above, I feel the pocket accent line (term.?) seems to grab attention by this close juxtaposition. I'd guess in IRL I'd not notice as my eyeline would be well above the pockets, compared with scrolling down a page. Perfect shoes for that suit.

Gregaz http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...ostcount=27492 That tie scares me: I keep seeing a swarm of angry wasps.

Spoo http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...ostcount=27482 Great! Esp. because lately, I've been thinking more meh than great (of course, compared with most people we see daily, an SF meh is actually pretty good!)

Cary Grant http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...ostcount=27481 I wouldn't fret about a slightly built-up shoulder - you won't really notice it - but like wearing a hat, you will feel self-conscious and convince yourself you can feel a great difference. Take a jacket you're not wearing anymore to your tailor, explain you want him to try to build up one shoulder a bit to compensate for the drop, and that this jacket isn't a keeper. Not ideal, but it's a cheap way of experimenting.

Sterling Gillette http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...ostcount=27480 How much criticism here is objective? No matter how ardently people fight their corner, it's all subjective, based on what, who, where, and when we are. Maybe.

This syndrome is not limited to Style-related forums, either. I used to hang out on Fark.com, a sort of humor/news site. A dude got banned, started a website "bannination.com", where all the people who got banned from Fark (usually for doing really flagrant stuff that they knew full well would get them banned after a spectacular meltdown) hang out. Guess what the favorite topic of discussion is? Drama, and how bad they hate the evil mods of Fark.

So yeah, misanthropes and sociopaths form their own message boards no matter where you go...

It's a suit. The color difference is due to lighting in the room where I was taking the pics.

Boring casual today:
