for everyone, in all threads:

When quoting pics, PUT THEM IN SPOILERS SO THEY DON'T TAKE UP SO MUCH SPACE.

It's very easy.


1. Click the little black quote box. It creates something like this: "SPOILER=Warning: Spoiler!" "/SPOILER" except with some brackets (or you can just type this out if you want)
2. Put the stuff that you want in the spoiler in between the "SPOILER=Warning: Spoiler!" and the "/SPOILER"
3. If you want, change the "Warning: Spoiler!" to what you'd like it to say instead.
4. Submit

I don't really like the stitching either but it is classic, and the color combo is good.

My least favorite was the square in #2, too much pattern in the pocket of a heavily patterned suit.

MrChris, these are generally very good. I think I like #1 most because of the deft color combination, but I wish the square weren't solid. Unlike others, I don't have a problem with solid colored squares, but I hate repeating solid accoutrements and your tie already takes up a slot in that count. #5 is also really nice. That's how I personally like to see a white linen square used. It's best with a patterned shirt. My only issue with #2 is that the textures and pattern scales are all a bit fine for the pattern expressed by the jacket, which I think calls for something more country and rustic. The royal blue tie and very dark navy square are a great combo.

#3 is my least favorite. The navy in the tie and square is repetitive.

I supose you're refering to my #2 pic .That is actually a sports coat, if my memory is not lacking I belive I was wearing mid grey wool pants that day.

@ all...Wow thanks for all the positive comments all, certainly didn't expect all the praise.

Quite good overall, big problem in 1-3 is the apparentl matchiness between tie & square. Tie #4 is great, don't let the bastids get you down.

This isn't horrible, but it would appear to be a man who looks like he only owns 1 suit.
