I like it even better now Vox that you snipped the top buttons. I don't think the cut is odd at all, but I am a Ralph Lauren whore.

Now get rid of the last two buttons, the lapels, and the entire rear of the jacket.

Because it sucks and desperately needs improvement?

After that, the pants go so that you get this effect when you reach for something in the cupboard:

My insane MS Paint Skills do not allow for me to do such an alteration.

Here is my latest drunken E-Bay purchase. I really need to stay away from E-Bay beyond 10 p.m.. I made an offer, they took it now this second absurd C.B. era RLPL is on its way. I hope the pinstripes are less obnoxious in person and the flash just made them really stand out. We will see. LOL.

You done fucked up on that one.

But then again, you do live in NO. I'm sure you'll find an opportunity to wear it.
