I think they look fine in all of the above combinations except the last. They really don't work with the khaki pants.


If they prevent you from wearing khaki pants all the more reason to keep them. I like 'em too.

Now we know the sound of one hand typing.

Perhaps you could fashion replaceable blazer buttons in tuxedo-stud style. The main button is connected with a shank to a smaller button, which fits through a discreet buttonhole where the regular, boring not-interchangeable button would regularly be.

Goodness gracious, haganah...look what you started...

Instead of answering PMs, here is a one post for all of you voyeurs:

480152532_7snYr-L.jpg


Left to right, top to bottom:

Bora Bora: my sweetie in a flower headdress made for her by a Tahitian girl

Bora Bora: Mount Otemanu from the lagoon while sailing a catamaran

Rangirora: my sweetie drinking from freshly opened coconut

Tahiti Iti: some marvelous flower

The Serengeti: one of two young male lions on rocks about twenty feet from our Rover

Tarangire: photo of our Land Rover while we were out looking a very strange, gigantic birds

Ngorongoro: water buffalo

Arusha: some hotel huts

Ngorongoro: male elephant (generally, only elderly males live in the crater, sort of like the Men's Clothing forum here)

Ngorongoro crater highlands: beautiful Masai women

Gol Kopjes: cheetah in mid hunt...absolutely amazing morning

Tarangire: baboon troop (again, much like StyleForvm)

Tahiti Iti: a Marquesan woman (who might be my relative...) blowing a conch before lunch

Moorea: a boat in the Raid Moorea, sponsored by the beer of Tahiti, Hinano

Bora Bora: sweetie and me from one of the encircling motus

Tahiti Iti: sunset at our little pension

Please don't ask me to photograph the other walls. I assure you, there are many other photographs, but no nudity (well, female...)

If blue buttons are an accepted option for full BlazerSuit™ certification, then I've had one all along. My Borrelli Irish linen navy suit qualifies - 3 open patch pockets and blue buttons. I've worn the jacket as a separate quite a bit too.

It counts, but I think blue linen looks much more neato with MoP buttons. ("Neato" is a tailoring term.)

Either. Or slightly smoked and in-betweeen.

In the left half of your wall, the second one on the very top looks similar to this: http://www.crateandbarrel.com/family...c=1530&f=25219 You changed it a little but I know what I know my friend.

Here's blue cotton with white MoP:

With linen, I think gray would be better...linen can reflect the light more sharply, and almost give off a black, for which gray is a better match.

That does sound neato. I'll have to track them down.
