The Look goes on...

[Clouseau]

This is an interesting SF poll :
https://www.styleforum.net/threads/styleforum-awards-2018-best-challenge.641370/

I think you'll guess my personal preference .
Now the 'shoe revival' will be hard to beat. I would have liked to participate, but it was very difficult to thrift an interesting pair of shoes at less than 15 dolls here (that was the rules IIRC)...

Why wasn’t the Trucker Jacket Challenge included?

Well can't tell, it's the 2018 best FCs according to the SF crew i suppose?

The Inspector said "Paris will ever be Paris," which is the title of this song.

Sorry all, but as this is the most active thread that I follow, I have an unrelated question: How the hell do I end a classified that hasn't sold?

Sales purchase…
Just made the acquisition of this 'Brown Shetland Tweed Blazer' from Cordings. 3b, single vent.





It is really a superb, versatile, and stylish jacket (IMO) : cut, material, length (a 44 long - a perfect fit for me), detailing (numerous pockets, working cuff buttons, etc).
I only bought it two days ago and wore it with a BD shirt and jeans since, and it looks good (i know that a Tweed jacket and jeans is a nice look that some of you like @Botolph pull up with style - it was his entry in the Jim Ferguson Challenge).
But i also want to wear it in a more dress-up way. So i was thinking of pairing it with smart chinos, or wool flat front trousers, flannels maybe ?
What do you think guys ?

 

[Mr Knightley]

Excellent Inspector! I think it would work well with mid-grey worsted flannel trousers and tattersall check shirt with a woollen tie.

Very envious!

I personally like cords with that kind of tweed. Such as the ones you could purchase right opposite in the Cordings basement! Nice thick cords in a dark but interesting colour. Burgundy perhaps, or a darker purpler wine. Very Parisian

I wanted to share these Loake 771 shoes that I had for Christmas. Not yet worn - what should I pair them with?

 

[cerneabbas]

A really nice jacket Inspector.
I have admired Cordings online for a while but have never been into the shop before,it really is a brilliant place,very traditional,high quality clothes and good service.
Maybe some Check trousers ? I have some Navy cavalry twill trousers that would look good with the Brown blazer.
I really like the M&S Savile Row wool flat front trousers and you can find them on Ebay for a bargain price.
I think that Khaki chinos would also go with the Brown colour its a very versatile jacket,so difficult to find Single vent jacketrs here now.

Yes of course mon ami ! This is one of the possible looks i forgot to mention, and i intend to wear it with my navy LVC cords sta-prest. I think mid-grey Flannels are a must have too, thanks @Mr Knightley
And @cerneabbas i retain the cavalry twill idea !
