The Look goes on...

[Clouseau]

Coping with WFH as best one can. Still getting up and getting dressed, albeit in a less formal way than usual, helps a bit. I am very grateful that I still have work to do...

BTW if anyone is on Instagram, JS has started a new hashtag #ivyisolation ?

I've seen your FC picture with the Vetra jacket you bought at his shop on his Instagram " Story" BTW

Second picture : you really look like the late Philip Seymour Hoffman ! (Before he gained weight)

It must be my windswept hair, l don't normally have a quiff.
Glad that you said pre-weight gain.

Oh I didn’t see it. I am useless with Instagram!

I will be wearing my mountaineering stuff venturing out from now on. Versatile for temperature and weather, easy to wash and dry, something to swap out of and forget. Just cheap Ronhill running top and bottom with scuffs and crampon holes, Salomon trainers and maybe a Patagonia extra layer. Definitely not 'athleisure' though, I might even take up running...

Still hanging around the house in 'ivy isolation'. Amazing how much more work one can get done...

Debenhams have a 30% off sale including the Loake Birkdale in 'conker' brown...£196.
Worth a punt to save £90,pay by card and get your money back (eventually) if it goes wrong.

Debenhams has gone into administration today.

Are they still trading online? I have had a number of emails from them lately with the 30% off this and that.

That's a nice buttondown, I had a BS that colour.

Thanks mate. You don't see that many pale yellow ocbds these days. PRL call it 'lemon rind'

I don’t know.

Caveat emptor.

Don't know what people think of the new Friday Challenge, but it doesn't work for me, I very rarely wear a tie and certainly not at home, with inappropriate clothing, I know it's just a bit of fun, but it could be better.
Also on a different note @Mr Knightley, it's good to see that you are taking exercise with your new exercise bike, I ventured out yesterday on my bike, the 1st time since last summer, after a 2nd hernia operation.
A few pics of me taking our permitted daily exercise.
Not a good look.

Prada shades, Barracuta, Gant BD, Brooks Brothers Khakis, Grafters monkey boots.

Hugo Boss shades, Fred Perry monkey jacket (different material to the stranded FP monkey),Gant BD, BB Khakis, Leather Converse Jack Purcell sneakers.

Watched the brilliant B&W movie yesterday, School for Scoundrels from 1960, it starred one of the greatest cinema cads ever Terry Thomas alongside Ian Carmichael. I spotted Ian Carmichael wearing a white un tipped Fred Perry polo shirt that appeared to have larger collars than the ones we often see in later photos from sixties.

As a teen in a small province town in Italy I liked to dress the way I thought young Brits dressed ...
Many years after, sometimes I still feel young at heart and try to revive that look: slim trousers, brogues and a coat (that only now I'm aware is known as 'Harrington jacket').
I recently treated me to a vintage DAKS simil-Harrington in a bolder colour than my usual blue.
Only recent addition are the Police spectacles (with prescription lenses ).
I submit my look to your judgement.
Feel free to be harsh.

 

[Clouseau]

Cool look @Luigi_M !
I like this jacket, the collar is slightly different than a classic harrington collar, more kinda bomber type. Ti sta bene !

 

[Luigi_M]

Merci, monsieur l'Inspecteur!
Point about collar duly noted
