I love this. The warm orange and brown play very well with the cool shirt and jacket.
The orange circles on the tie with the orange cardigan. The yellow circumference of the circles on the tie with the yellow square. The blue center of the circles with the blue of the shirt and jacket. Masterful.

@TheSuitBurnsBetter Looks like you started a trendy.

I now desperately want to watch a movie or prestige tv series about a corrupt security guard. That has to be a thing, right?
I don't know if a Bodyguard could count as a Security guard, but this Netflix Brit series with Richard Madden (seen in GoT) is pretty good.

It's called Bodyguard, and the plot is more complex than the original movie with Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston.
Now the question is : Is he corrupted ?

The weather, after being sunny and cold this morning, has turned greyer as the day has worn on here in NYC.

After an early morning shoeshine, exercise, and an early lunch, my day peaked with a visit to my dentist, for a routine cleaning. After the cleaning, my dentist informed me that one of my second molars is loose, and recommended a complex and expensive-sounding set of procedures to correct this condition.

As the old adage goes, "When the going gets tough, the tough go shopping." Drowning my anticipated fiscal sorrows, I visited Paul Stuart, which, of course, brought on a much more pleasant set of anticipated fiscal sorrows - depending on the sale price of a particular item, when their semi-annual sale is announced. More on that news as things progress. I did have the pleasure of the undivided attention of my salesperson and Ralph Auriemma, the creative director for Stuart's, showing me virtually every suit in the Phineas Cole line. What was remarkable was how different fabrications of the same model suit would look and fit differently - a lesson only to be learned in the here and now, not using a photo on a web site.

Meanwhile, for today, I opted to bring another winter-weight suit into rotation. I believe that I bought this suit eight years ago, in London, in the company of fellow poster Bernoulli - the first of many sartorial adventures with the gentleman. It was an auspicious start for today's suit.

Suit - New & Lingwood
Shirt - Tyrwhitt
Tie - Drake's
Cufflinks - Deakin & Francis
Braces - Lewin
Shoes - Finsbury, Paris
Overcoat - Adolfo
Hat - Lock, London
Scarf & face mask - New & Lingwood

At the Tea Rose Garden tea room in Pasadena CA earlier today. Pasadena is (for now) the only city in Los Angeles County where outdoor dining is still allowed. People can only go inside to use the bathroom or take a picture (standing up).

Brooks Brothers tweed jacket, BB#1 stripe 9/11 Memorial tie, belt, and pocket square, L L Bean OCBD shirt, Polo Ralph Lauren grey flannel trousers, and Allen-Edmonds shoes.

For fans of "Piece-Of-A-Person" pictures, a piece of a person (sitting outside) with tea picture. Have often told people how large the scones at Tea Rose Garden are. The scone is on the middle dish of the tiered server.
