Going through some pics tonight (pretty bored after the Tourney games finished) and decided to put together a little sampler for you guys to check out.

Vote for your favorite and discuss what's wrong/right about the looks as you wish. If nothing else, it will give me something to read tomorrow at work...

I voted for no. 4, but I'd go with the square from no. 2/3. I don't like solid color pocket squares except maybe white.

Starving for attention?

#1: I like it. Great pocket square color. My only problem is that the tie and jacket are too similar. Its ok to be monochromatic but thats when you play with the textures or they should be the same exact texture. Similar but not exact doesnt cut it.
#2: That tie is hideous!
#3: I like it. Love the pocket square choice.
#4. Beautiful! My favorite. Love how the pocket square is able to pick up on the smallest red dots on the tie! Overall great use of color yet understated.

#5: Again great use of color yet not so understated!

#6: Its ok but similar to #3. I liked #3 more.
#7: I love the color scheme and all the textures but I never really liked those types of sweaters. The sweater brings the look down in style points but I can still tell you know what you are doing.
#8: Apparently you dont save the best for last! The tie is terrible. I dont like the contrast between the jacket and the pocket square. Light blue shirts go with everything but there are still better options for that jacket.

Overall I respect your style. I like a lot of your posts.

Awesome, that's the kind of break down I wanted. Thank you! About attention/narcissism - who on WAYWT does not have a hint of narcissism in their blood? We are posting to hear/see/feel what others have to say about our clothing after all, and for most people that would raise an eyebrow or two. I am just doing it in a more succinct and possibly entertaining way.

I'm not in love with the tie in 2, but I really like the combo.

sweater is too much in 7, a V-neck would really help that look.

Maybe #4 with a baby blue pocket square?
