Men's Colognes?
Diptyque here! Their fragrances are odd and complex, but very satisfying with it. It came as something of a surprise to find out what a cologne could be after only wearing fashion brands previously. Oyedo is my favourite fresh day scent at the moment, and Eau d'Elide is for a night out.- steppingup

wedding outfit (my wedding)
I'm English ... we don't really do dimples. I've been looking out for them studiously, having read how popular they are 'here' (i.e., largely American contributors?).- steppingup

wedding outfit (my wedding)
Bump, bump... 1. Well, it's hard to take your own photo well. 2. I have the arms of a chimpanzee. I sort of knew this. This isn't the right shirt, by the way, which is being made for me (so will have sleeves of the proper length). 3. The tie is a little darker than it appears here and is...- steppingup

Ironing useless??
Do you do your own laundry? Ironing shirts while still damp is easier and gives much better results than re-wetting with water from a spray bottle. The creases are 'memorised' by the fabric as it dries (which re-wetting with spray goes only some way to address). This was explained to me by...- steppingup

shoe care and "rotation"
Thanks, all .... as quick and as helpful as ever. And in the meantime (overnight for me here) another shoe care thread started that listed trusted products too. The shiny shoes I first mentioned are made of cordovan leather: is that the reason for the £+? Having looked at their website, I like...- steppingup

shoe care and "rotation"
I've read up on my polishing and conditioning and have that in mind as Sunday evening thing now. BTW, ironing shirts while still damp has been a revelation (I think I read that tip here somewhere too), both in terms of ease and result. These things don't have to be a chore, I now realise. My...- steppingup

shoe care and "rotation"
On one of the threads where someone was talking about suits, I read about "rotation" for the first time and realised that as a professional in my mid-30s, I own hardly any clothes. I own two pairs of shoes, for instance, and one pair of Merrell trainers that are smart enough to cycle to work in...- steppingup

wedding outfit (my wedding)
Thanks, everyone; I've appreciated the kind guidance. If I've got it to work, there should be a pic here somewhere of the Sam Hober tie which is just the one I had in my mind's eye when I first posted. This is "warm silver" (silver and brown). I bought one yesterday when choosing a regular...- steppingup

wedding outfit (my wedding)
OTC? Navy blue because it is closest to what I wear most often ... very dark blue jeans! Black seemed positively funereal and I already have a £99 machine-washable (breathe deeply, the pain will pass) grey one. It doesn't help that I've been the youngest man at work for ages and rarely see...- steppingup

wedding outfit (my wedding)
Thanks everyone. I shall post a pic or three in four weeks (which is when my shirt will be ready to collect). Black shoes it is. I shall start looking for these and my tie next week. Are black socks for everyday wear simply dull, then?- steppingup

wedding outfit (my wedding)
There are lots of things I'm stepping up to this year and sorting out a more grown-up look is one of them. I'm a mid-30s professional still dressing too often like a mid-20s student. A new job in the autumn is a good time to push ahead with my wardrobe change, which has been getting better...- steppingup
