BAM! This b&w is possibly the best pic of you that I have seen on here. Very nice!
Also, scrolling through at first I thought it was Chorse ...

Gingham check.

Thanks.
You know, I keep finding myself doing the same thing with pictures of Chorse. Long lost sartorial brothers?

Thank you.

Brooks Bros by me had a bunch on sale 50% off.

I picked mine up at the Factory Outlet for $10 each.

At least, in my opinion.

Thanks, Just got my first SLR Camera, so hopefully the skills continue to grow. One thing of love about this thread, is getting to bring two of my interests together, clothing and photography, get advice and grow in both.

in this case, the busy-ness of the jacket clashes when you throw in the blue shirt, purple/black tie and multi-colored pocket square. there is just too much going on.

a crisp white shirt, maybe no tie and solid colored pocket square would have made this a winner. other options obviously exist too with a tie in the configuration.

also AAAC's color coordination article would help greatly.

Today's tie, coat pattern, and pocket square are right on!!!

Thanks guys, I almost went with an Blue OCBD perhaps that would have been a bit better. But whatever. I thought about the over busy thing, but it seemed okay to me, maybe I should have went for a coat with out the boldish overcheck.

I think the colors are fine, but the pattern of the coat throws it off for me, maybe a solid charcoal coat rather the the check?

I was actually thinking that some may comment on the fit of the morning coat, Perhaps the pictures didn't show the fit very well, maybe when I get some more. Like I said I thought I did everything right for traditional morning wear, but I ecpected SF to find something wrong

, though the attempt at morning wear alone should be rather impressive for an american wedding.

Holdfast, nice pics. Looks like you're having a wonderful time.

I've gotten the same comments ... I take it as a compliment - Chorse is a classy guy (and a real gentleman to do business with).
