HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

[Monkeyface]

That's nice but dull for SB. Lighten the suit a touch, put the colour back in his tie, and make the PS burgundy.

And then try a navy suit.

If that's alright.

Lol, I didn't change anything about the tie, it's still the original colour. Can't be bothered to change the PS, it's too much work, but here's navy for you:

Makes a difference!

This is love, no need to spoil.

@MonkeyFace: Nice jacket, really liked it.

@Estitchy: getting ready to race Spoo?

It's been cold in Mexico City these days and on Saturday we experienced an earthquake that scared me a lot, I don't get scared easily by earthquakes but this one was not cool. So I don't want to be cold today. Also I didn't shave.

Dull for SB?

Are you calling me dull, pB? If so, I'm not sure whether that's a good or bad thing in your estimation.

 

[Betelgeuse]

This is love, no need to spoil.

Thanks Hampton!

Good to me. But relative to WAYWRN, dull.

Somehow, my Shiraz must have been stronger than I had first imagined - the steaks I remember, the singing and dancing I'm a bit more iffy on. As for "a sight for the ages", were we singing and dancing, wouldn't that have been more like "a shonda for the neighbors", or do you have terpsichorean talents hidden from the eyes of ordinary mortals, boychik?

Jus' askin' . . .

Next time, Tirailleur, definitely to be invited . . .

I was actually on board...in its context...until I saw that the shirt had a different colored pocket too.

Really?

Ouch. Sorry to say, but I would have no fun wearing that shirt.

Respect.

Those shirts ******* suck.

Thanks for the constructive criticism.

You are in desperate need of a woven belt and a Jiffy steamer. Pants are also a bit wide for this outfit. The light shirting gives the appearance of being bottom heavy.

The lighting in that picture is terrible. It's like that episode of Seinfeld. The pants are linen. They tend to wrinkle. I don't think a steamer would help given that I had worn them all day. I'm not photoshoot fresh.

Speaking of ties, I recently picked up this Drakes that I had been coveting for a couple of years. I don't think I did so hot with it today:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

If you just don't like the tie, that's fine, but I'd prefer to hear from those who have suggestions on better pairings.

Great tie. The dots really "pop" making a nice graphic/geometric statement. But you are right, it isn't working with that suit.

Try:
1) Navy blazer
2) Ivory linen jacket


I would avoid pin stripes and windowpane patterns but I bet it would look sensational with a solid colored herringbone weave fabric.

I would wear it with a solid colored probably white PS. The pattern is strong enough that I don't think you want to compete with it.

When you showed us the photo on your phone, the jacket looked to be pure yellow, but on my monitor now, it's a little more like chartreuse - which is correct? A VERY powerful color to tame down into a 'fit, boychik - it may still be there when you next come to NYC . . .
