Hi to eveyone.
I am interested in buying the Ralph Lauren RL Pima Cotton V Neck Sweater and the Fine Cotton Vest from the RL Online Store.
My question is: How do the Sweaters / Vests run ?
I like it "Slim Fit" .... my Abercrombie Sweater / Cardigan size is large if this information helps. In Shirts I have size Medium - Abercrombie.
I am 6´3 tall .
Should I try size Small?

Thanks for your help.

If you do a search here, you'll turn up the "Where to buy shoe laces" thread with several suggestions of online vendors.

Thanks and I will acquire the book later this week.

I recently acquired this shirt and I would like some help matching a tie to it. It is mostly blue, and the stripes seem to be a brown. I included a couple pics to help. Suggestions?

Thanks.

What ties have you got?

 

[Enforcicon]

Ah, good question. ^ Let me snap a pic.

Okay, this is my main rotation. I have a ton of other (ugly, weird, inherited) ties, but this is what I'm working with:

A couple clarifications that are hard to tell from the picture: The upper right is navy with tiny red-ish/pink dots, the second row #4 is sky blue with little paisley patterns.

Thanks.

Navy or Dark Brown would work well. Best one IMO is the far right middle row (but I don't like the word writen there.. is that Piere Cardin?).

 

[binge]

Either top row, #6
or bottom row #3 (middle).

You've got a lot going on already with that shirt, use a solid, dark tie to contrast.






Or don't. Look at lots of examples to decide what you like. For instance, browse through the ten zillion pages of the "what are you wearing right now" thread so see what people post. You might find things you like, or you might now. YMMV.

Thank you. I don't really like label flashing either, but yes it is a Cardin.

Cool I figured something along those lines. I am very new to this and I'm trying to get a feel for the basics first, then experiment. I discovered this forum recently and I've actually lurked the whole WAYWRN thread already. I must say, there are a lot of really sharp dressers here.

I'm looking for a pair of bucks for spring/summer, but I'm new to the whole deal. Can they be resoled?
