Yes, yes, I know pics would be nice. So someone send me a cheap digital camera and I'll post them (mine, kaput).

Anyway, wearing a dark maroon/red thermal under a grey with purple undertones tee, both Jay Allen blanks. APC braided suede leather cuff (now thoroughly "distressed"), grey military cap, Nudies RRDS and my Maltese Cross Baltazar belt, and white (really cream) with red accent Marc Jacob Vans slip ons.

Is it that cool in Boston right now, or are you suffering for your style? I'd love to wear something besides t-shirts and button-ups with the sleeves rolled back, but this humidity....

I suffer for my style. I've worn this in 105 F high desert weather as well. I don't tend to overheat or get cold very easily (my body apparently has become good at keeping constand body temperatures), so it's not a big deal for me. Besides, I ran my first race in a while yesterday (mile splits sucked), and am a little drained still, so I feel cooler than normal right now.

Works for me. I'm almost at the point where I'm willing to do that myself--I'm getting soooo tired of t-shirts....

The same waist size for 10 years? You are a man among men.

Well I do have to buckle it one spot over now so it's not completely unchanged. At the rate I am going that belt's not going to fit much longer unless I get back into shape.

A belt is a great "pacer". It can be a very happy or very sad time to shift notches in a belt

Setup: I work in an office environment, where it's smart-casual. For most that's buisness clothing, sans tie. I have another look which I wear to work, which is polo + jean, which is my casual look (making me the most 'casual'[as aposed to style] person in the office) Objective: trying to do was mix my two looks. method: I picked my most ill fitting shirt (fits great on the shoulders, as you've all noticed, big cuffs, bit baggy, and it's very think cotton), and wore my jeans. My mentality: was that if I could pull the look off, I'd have no problems pulling it off with my nice fitting shirts, with the jeans. So with all your feedback, I believe that I can pull the look off. I did feel pretty good with the look, but of course I was going to be biased about the look (I got a few good comments around the office as well) The shoe thing, I'm not a fan of curved toed shoes. Once again, thanks for your feedback, it means a lot. --Wade PS swooc / PunctualAlex, thanks for such compliments!
