Hey Chorse- can you get some of the horiz. striped Marcoliani's? I'll take 'em!


Most of the horizontal stripes--like the ones I had--are seasonal specials, and probably all gone by now. I will have more next summer for f/w '09.

Lots of color, pattern and texture going on with the pants and shoes, so I kept it simple with the socks.

I just realised that I'm wearing the same coffee herringbone Marcolianis that Chorse posted the other day. Oops. I wore them so the "coffee" in the socks would match the "bitter chocolate" of my grenadine tie.

Keeping it simple again today due to the busyness of the pants:

Very successful. It's amazing how much you can do with a pair of solid navy blue socks.

This, I don't like as much. I would like to see more contrast with the pants. Dark brown or maroon would have been a nice choice, I think.
