Spring seems to have arrived, so for the first time in a while I got to trade wool for shantung, tweed for linen blend, oxford for poplin, flannel or cavalry twills for fresco, and boots for loafers. View attachment 1153449

From the weekend. Maiden voyage for the trousers and - especially - the sport coat. It's my second commission from the local tailor shop Andells. The fabric is wool/linen blend from Carnet Sportofino tester/sampler (I'm not sure what's the correct term here, please correct me!). I think there is a huge improvement over my first jacket from them (the navy blazer from my previous post) and hopefully the trend will be kept in the future. I am rather pleased with the final outcome but I'm eager to hear your opinion as well :)

Very fine combo.The coat has a great cut and beautiful
I would use another tie, but that’s a question of personal taste.
Congrats.

Cheers

Tuesday, and a better day than yesterday. I decided that I wanted to wear something fairly simple today, and have put together an outfit made of quite disparate parts, some from very humble origins. Today's suit was a "crime of opportunity" - something I found on the clearance racks at my local JAB while helping my work colleague buy a suit, a Signature Platinum marked down some 85% off retail, and today's shirt was a castoff from my husband, for whom it was too large.

Suit - JAB Signature Platinum
Shirt - Brooks Brothers
Tie - London-York
Cufflinks - The Queen's Gallery, Buckingham Palace
Pocket square - Brooks Brothers
Shoes - Crockett & Jones
Overcoat - Adolfo
Scarf - Burberry
Hat - Selentino, via JJ Hat Center

I'm for it in principle. Maybe when it is a bit warmer.

Days keep sunny and out of time
Sometimes, I like to dress the way I dressed once before, because I felt good.
That’s the case. Photo in the stairway of the building where I live.
