I've been lurking here for two years now, so I guess it's time to post something! Thanks everyone for posting your epic outfits here each day, I have gotten so much style inspiration from you guys :slayer:

Went to a convention a few days ago and wore this. The brown herringbone Harris Tweed is my favourite out of the many sport coats I've amassed over time. It was made in San Francisco during the 1970's, so true vintage! I bought it on Ebay, and the seller was clearly not fully aware of its value?. Repp tie is from a menswear store in my city, but might pass for a BB #1 to an untrained eye... Pants are black corduroy. I'm still hoping for the day that people my age embrace tweed and corduroy :bigstar:

A better picture of the outfit for good measure.

And this is what I wore to university today. Sport coat is from Suitsupply, which is a Dutch brand so secondhand SuSu blazers are pretty abundant here in the Netherlands! I usually wear this in summer weather with white trousers, but I think this works too.

Like both jackets a lot. Might want to check the sleeves. The right one on the herringbone is way too short and both sleeves on the blue one are too long. Try to show around 1/4-3/8" of cuff and you'll be fine.

When wearing a cravat, do you leave two buttons undone or just the top? I experimented with both yesterday while (still) WFH:
