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

[upr_crust]

Even though the temperatures outside today in NYC are currently at 32C/90F, I am suited up this afternoon, as I am meeting a friend from out of town for drinks at the Campbell Apartment at Grand Central, as he requested some place where one can be nicely dressed and not look out of place. The options for the day were linen or seersucker, and as I'd last worn seersucker only last week, I opted for linen. (Note: I've eschewed the wearing of a hat, as the distance between my apartment and Grand Central is not far, and I didn't wish the annoyance of trying to find a place for it, once I got to the Campbell Apartment.)

Suit - Joseph Abboud
Shirt - Brooks Brothers
Tie - Hermes
Cufflinks - Corcione, Napoli
Pocket square - Ashear
Shoes - Paul Stuart house brand

First outing for this jacket, a bit of a project, no tailoring yet. I changed the original metal buttons, quite pleased with my needlework. The colour is hard to photo. It is a silk/linen/wool blend and a melange. The colour is a mid dark steel kind of blue.

Not sure about the square.

Sunshine = suede.

That looks very nice. Especially the Wittnauer vintage watch and the cuff links. Excellent !

Ever get to the point when you are looking at your summer wardrobe and wondering when to take to the cleaners and put into hibernation. I am holding out for a late summer, been a very poor August in Sothern England.

We were traveling in SoCal this week, which is an odd place for a first HOF post in many moons, but so be it. We spent some time in San Pedro at the docks and LA proper, where complete masking is required indoors at all times.

Fortunately, the wedding we flew in for was in Huntington Beach and Orange County doesn't have such a mask mandate. The dress code was "Formal Casual" (only in California!) so this is what we packed. I kid you not: there were folks who showed up in Hawaiian shirts, cargo pants, crocs...and a blazer to top off the whole thing. What a confusing dress code.

Anyways: solaro suit, linen shirt, navy on navy polka dot grenadine tie and go-to-hell bright navy unlined loafers. We ate outdoors while there was still daylight but, but I was advised strongly against packing a hat. Now my forehead is severely burned (see the last picture for the morning after).

Classic Tom James suit I picked up for 35 bucks on eBay today along with some Allen Edmonds monk straps, I was told by a customer my suit is too baggy?
