Very nice. Who makes the suit?

The Jacket, It's A Kool Down...

The Scribe...

Heavy duty stuff for heavy duty weather.
Much as these small collared RL button downs often look out of place on me when worn with a tie, I find it works somewhat well under a sweater, where the gap in proportion is corrected a bit.

Hola!

I like the brown and gray combo. Surprised you didn't go with dark brown shoes. I think your green suede loafers would have worked well also. The light brown is decent, but sub optimal IMO.

Next time will try it with the green suede.

For once, my pictorial offerings today have little to nothing to do with today's weather in NYC, albeit the weather is pleasantly mild, with partial sunshine and low humidity. They have much more to do with my acquisition of "new toys", and my need to see if these latest additions to that cabinet of curiosities known as my wardrobe can work and play well together with the oddities already acquired.

Today's suit is from the New York branch of New & Lingwood, acquired at a most advantageous price, as the shop was closed for several months due to the pandemic, thus leaving them with a lot of stock that they are looking to move, in order to make room for new fall items. I happened to drop into the store, and saw today's suit on the rack, and was intrigued - even more so, when it turned out to fit me quite well.

The photo shown with me wearing a a quilted jacket is another recent "crime of opportunity" - something which presented itself at my local Saks Off Fifth (no snob I - I am quite democratic as to where I will spend money), and the acquisition of which was actively solicited by my husband, who on occasion decides that I "need" something - in this case, a lightweight Barbour.

As much as the weather today is mild in NYC, both of today's featured acquisitions are much too wintry to wear for some months now, so today's photos were for demonstration purposes only.
