Warm scarf (grey)? Preferably highest quality for under $100? Love Stephan Schneider's but really don't want to pay that much for a scarf

I have been wanting to upgrade from boat shoes to driving shoes for a while. Which is a good, classic versatile color? Brown, Navy or Maroon? And is suede or normal leather more normal for this kind of shoe? I try to wear classic neutral colors in general grey, khaki, navy, blues and reds. Thanks!

I'll echo the brown answer.

Your heel should fit snug. However, it is really up to you whether your shoe feels comfortable to wear and walk in; some like a snug fit, some like a slightly loose fit.

Do you mind posting a picture of your shoes? Oxford shoes shouldn't have too big of a V gap when new.
The V is not that big. I will post a pic when I can. I am assuming a half size bigger will be too loose. The shoes are pretty comfortable.

What do you think about these? Could I do better? The brand is Paolo Pecora and I'm looking for some chinos that stand out from the rest. Brown tones are my favorite, the only thing i would like to change are the cargo pockets on the side but they're still good imo

Hi everyone. I'm new to everything related to fashion and I need some advices. In fact, for now, I only need you guys to tell me if this (green gingham shirt and red tie w/ penguins) is an acceptable christmas setup. Also, how do I complete this outfit (pants color, accessories, jacket) ? Thank you in advance !

Default SF answer is medium gray wool trousers; although I think tan or khaki pants can work too. I think that tie works best with a white or light pink shirt however. Navy jacket and green or red trousers if you want a christmas theme to your jacket. Casual brown shoes like a penny loafers.

Your tie knot could use reining in a bit, to my eyes it threatens to overwhelm the collar.

Green gingham + red tie with penguins is not the height of good taste, but in my opinion a little tastelessness is a good thing at Christmastime so go for it I reckon.

(I like the shirt pattern in isolation btw.)

Don't wear khakis or chinos. Looks silly.
Wear proper slacks.

What Xmas "setup" will you be attending? Work? Home? Bar? Restaurant?
