Going for a spectator today and ended up with the Indy. Oh wel!

Looking at high-quality silver cuff links… where do y’all go?

I agree with @dpgaloot. I have several pair from Tiffany including Elsa Peretti and Paloma Picasso, and they stand out from most of my others. Looking at a simple silver pair from Pini Parma, but have not committed yet.

Interesting. I am not seeing these all online. I have a collection of cufflinks that got misplaced in my home renovations and additions over the last year. I will eventually find them, but I have several events that could use them now, so I figured I'd just get some nicer pieces. I am not into the beans ones...thinking of something with Lapis.

Shoes from last week.

Wingtip Wednesday was in full effect. This client has a pug, so the socks were appropriate.

Parks at a client's office.

Almost everything else worn this week was a new-to-me pair of Gridirons, courtesy of @Cronmok . This is one of the most generous gifts I've ever received from a stranger. Thanks again buddy, I really appreciate your gesture more than words can show. Never tried on a Leeds before, but I do own two Daltons on the same 511 last. One in 10D and one in 10.5D. I'm usually a grumpy curmudgeon after wearing the 10D Daltons as they almost always leave a mark on my foot in the form of a heat blister. The 10.5D Dalton is better, but still a strange fit. These Gridirons however, are absolutely perfect on my feet.

Friday was the Eagle's first preseason game, hence the Philadelphia Eagles socks.

Watched the Saints preseason game on my friend's back porch last night. I have watched so many games from this exact same spot that I'm slowly destroying his back porch.

These are so comfortable that I don't need to be watching a football game to enjoy them.

Thanks again, I'm eternally grateful. :cheers:

When it comes to cufflinks, @dpgaloot is right, vintage is king. The majority of my nice cufflinks came from my grandfather and I prize these cufflinks way more than any of my modern ones. Seems to me that the vintage offerings often had a matching tie bar as well. Having said that, I will second what @Baybombers said, Ben Silver has a very nice selection and even has some in lapis lazuli. There may be a bit of a bias with me as Ben Silver is from King Street in Charleston.

I still haven't made my final decision on what to order in regards to team color shoes. Gave myself until the 16th to make my decision and that day is coming up fast. Lately, I have been leaning towards just the football Higgins and the green/white Strandmoks. I really want the solid green Strandmoks, but the possibility of having a green shell Strand offering for Shelltember is even more appealing. Not sure if I would wear the green Strandmoks if I had a pair of green shell Strands in my closet.

Those socks are ugly.
