I reeeeeeeaaaaalllllllly like that jacket!

Thanks Andy! The cloth is from Solbiati and can be found in the Tolomeo book if you're so inclined.

What could be more summery than cotton, linen, driving loafers and a sports car the Friday before a long weekend?

I'm a big fan. The finger gun really clinched the sale for me though.

I wish you hadn't told me that. I can resist anything except temptation!

I love D'Avenza. Perfect style for a suit IMO. You inspired me to wear my Mohair suit more often.

Though in today's picture I'm wearing an Eidos washed Linen structureless jacket, with some high-waisted double reverse pleated Nautica trousers and a very loud shirt.

Some great entries so far. Be sure to get your entries in soon. I'm going to close the contest and post the poll tomorrow, probably in the afternoon. I can't say exactly when because of the holiday, but don't delay in posting!

Summer à la Thom Browne. And since others have thrown in animals in the challenge, I include a picture when I greet the alfa-cat in our neighbourhood (not my cat): Napoléon.
