Well you made yours and mine were OTR :)

Please post.

I got my inspiration from Fred: http://www.unabashedlyprep.com/site/entry/hollywoodland/

Great pants. I just recently finished making a pair of cords in a similar color and was planning on posting pics tomorrow - of course now that I'm going to look unoriginal I might try to copy the whole look... although my only pink shirt is still in on the way in the mail... I will think of something. Thanks for the inspiration.
I like the wine cords too... I need to go fabric shopping again soon.

Back to the grind. Tie knot got a little messy at the end of the day. Pants are blue, not dark navy like they seem. Colors a bit washed out in detail pic, my apologies. Still think this SC is a bit wide in the chest/shoulders but thats the perils of RTW on a student budget, 38s too small, 39 too small in shoulders, went with the 40! Great looks all around today gents! Spoiler has 2 more fit pix, slightly diff angles?
(And yes, I actually cleaned the mirror at work yesterday, it got dirty again :embar: )


From the front, the pattern/color combination is splendid. I really like the shirt. The fit, too, looks good. If you are concerned about the chest and shoulders, I'd be curious to see the back side--how the coat looks in the shoulder blades and how flat it drapes. All that is needed is a smart pocket square.

So I can't figure out whether you look more like a bottle of mustard or a quilted Ikea pillow. Pro tip, looking like either won't get you in with middle aged, overweight bachelorettes. Hitting puberty might help though..


Hgalek, You sir are a jealous arrogant idiot. He is turning 40 and could easily pass for 25, not to mention he is married to a drop dead gorgeous wife. PRO TIP come to SD and say things like "Hitting puberty might help though" around me and the people I know; on my mothers life I could make one phone call and send you back to puberty with your balls cut off and stuffed in your face, later to be found in a ditch on the outskirts of Tijuana by Polica Federal. No joke, have respect for everybody and yourself or deal with the consequences of your actions. That is grown man talk so handle your business accordingly.

Holy ****! You know you've crossed a (thin blue) line when Tibor -- the gentleman's gentleman -- threatens to get medieval on your ass.

When I see this picture, I can't help but think of the similarities between you and ******** in a sport coat. On the plus side, ******** always wears properly tailored and well fitted sport coats. Props. On the other hand, that's where the similarities end, as ******** clearly gets more action than, Mr. Feeny, ever will.


Thank you for your comments. Until now, I was unaware that the homeless has access to the Web.

This one is just too easy. I'll let you reconsider the merits of this fit on your own time, seeing as I'm simply not spiteful enough to do this visual obscenity justice.


I feel kinda insulted that you didn't go FNB on my pics.

On a football board that I'm a member of, one of the posters decided to commit virtual hari kiri by posting a photo of his ********. Gruesome stuff, but at least he showed a certain style in the manner of his exit.
