I'm not totally sold on this fit.

At first glance, I thought the chair back was part of the jacket, and that you were wearing a really extreme pagoda shoulder. Kinda disappointed when I took a second look... :)

Looks great, IMO. Beautiful shoes. Like the tie too.

Thanks! Coincidentally in light of the conversation in the good taste thread, I wasn't sure about the square. The tie is Hober, the shoes Foster & Son (by EG).

That would be some EXTREME! pagoda. I particularly like your fit with the tiger square.

I'm currently finding that trying to get a good GMAT score is 10,000x harder than losing 100 pounds. Seriously.

Take the MCAT sometime for ***** and giggles.

Actually scratch that. It ******* sucks.

Thank you for this insight. The truth is I am just a big dummy and need a lot more of that practice than most.
