HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

[LiteraryBotany]

Belatedly, yesterday's outfit: Self Isolation, Day 69. Yellow and indigo. This waistcoat is a Rag and Bone one that I eBayed last month. In attempting a 2/3rds of a 3-piece suit look, I ended up combining a rather more casual waistcoat with a rather more formal suit: the waistcoat has a soft lapel roll, as opposed to the crisp lines of the linen. The stark lighting of my study mutes the contrasting textures, so I attached a few detail shots. Thoughts? I suppose that the quarantine runway is as good a place to experiment as I'm going to get.

At any rate, the most important thing is to color coordinate with what we're reading. For Natasha Boyd's book, I didn't want to do a completely monochromatic scheme, but I did want to bring the signature dye in.

Stay safe. Stay sane. Do the things that bring you joy.

Amazing jacket. Where's it from? Love the pockets and button stance. Gorge is kind of high.

Thanks. Kent Wang made this one. I think I agree about the gorge. I go back and forth about whether I would replace the chest patch pocket with a barchetta if I had to do it over again.

Channeling my inner Luca while social consensus mocks how big my suit looks.

Can’t win them all...

I really like how the dark of the waistcoat and your socks seem to be at odds with the otherwise "casual" elements of your outfit: what looks like a cotton suit--although hard to tell from the pics. But this, with the french cuff shirt, and the tie--I think you've combined "formal" and "casual" elements in an interesting way here. Bravo!

I don't think that looks bad at all. Unless you mean it looks . . . wait for it . . . bad ass!! See what I did there?

I like it too. I just feel bad for your lonely ties. Like a dog constantly waiting to be walked.

Bonus pic:
Look mom, I'm thrifting! We're in phase 3 now, many stores opened yesterday. Waited in line 55 minutes to pay for a yellow shirt($3). The abundance of half naked women help pass the time. There's something rather sexy about those little mask...Ended the day with 2 yellowish solid dress shirts, and a SWEET pair of chocolate dress pants. No alterations required.

It's supposed to be such a lovely Spring...

While there's nothing wrong with having a little chutzpah, don't forget that this isn't exactly a gaming forum. What everyone here is after is some sense of affirmation when it all comes down to it. We all like the same sort of thing, and we all want to be a part of the same community.

I love nothing more than a good lion shot.

I title this ensemble "Chocolate Rain" (it's currently overcast and drizzling).
