Duuuuuuuuude, since your persona obviously exempts you from chores of any kind, at least have someone pick that **** up for you. Christ, you're killing the LK mystique!

'Twas a sleepover at grimslade's office.

She wants to come to the NYE party too, but the invite clearly states BLACK tie. Not red.

Happy new year all!

Since all of my holiday outings have been casual, I figure this is the only way I'd make a contribution.

Shirt: RL Black Label
Jeans: RRL
Fwear: Allen Edmonds Bel Air
Passed Out-edness: 9 glasses of JW Black, 4 Hendricks & Tonic, at least 4 more glasses of ?????
Location: Encore, Las Vegas
Time: 3-4 in the morning...or so I'm told.

Congratulations on this outfit Parker! Well composed and well suited for the event (at least based on the pic).

However, there is one thing I'm slightly hesitant about... I've never been a fan of the matching belt and shoe combo, and it would be interesting to hear what others think?

And before we get into that, let me just say that Mr Parker here looks very stylish so this is not directed at that particular outfit (but only used to illustrate the point).

So, personally I don't like the belt+shoe combo because it:
1. "cuts the person in half" and draws unnecessary attention to the waistline
2. makes the legs look shorter, and sometimes also gives the impression that the pants are too short
3. gives the impression that the person has been thinking too much about her/his outfit, but then didn't have the eye to decide what looked good.

Watching well-dressed Italians you will note that they very often match the belt color with the trouser color, which IMHO looks great. What are your takes on that?

Using Mr Parker's pic to illustrate (hope you don't mind)
