How about you mix it up with a bit of "What is Red Wearing Today"?

PG- perhaps even more attractive than the shoes is the fact that your friend does not have overdone fingernails- classy, yet real.

thanks for the feedback, as always.

... i got a new hat! my friends thought i could pull it off, given my usual sartorial choices.

the band wraps around my head like a headscarf and will tie at whatever angle i choose. thoughts?

All your posts, your clothes are perfectly crisp and pressed- just wondering

- I only d/clean (well spot clean if there has been a sauce accident) maybe once a season
- FWIW, what I have been wearing the last 6 weeks has yet to be d/cleaned (the coats & pants).
- A lot has to do with the quality & performance of the cloth, something I have learnt over the years - by the best you can. Also as I am a frequent flyer & hate hotel laundry service, I make it a point of getting high performance cloth (preferably natural fibres). What I also do is to air for 2 days between wearing

I dunno. It looks like the designer decided there's no reason that wearing an icepack shouldn't be stylish.

Thanks for the comments.

Gordon Rush cuffed boots. I posted a pic of them in the recent purchase thread.

Good to see you out of a suit anyway.

Agreed that it's slightly short. It stretches out if I pull on it but over the day slowly goes back up to that point.

Yeah, Skulls after a hem. They're finally loosening up after a little more than a month now.

Thanks. I sort of like the stacked look but once I soak/wash these then they'll shrink up some anyways. I don't really want to have big cuffs though.

Grund, don't over think it or worry about it, just wear them, I used to think mine looked a little off too. They'll loosen up and settle soon enough. I've got a WAYWT post to make tonight, Skulls & W+H Boots, should make you happy. Meant to post this morning, but ran out of time. And the damn battery ran out of charge.

Uncontrol, I like that fit much better. It's not screaming look at me, but it is still different. A good balance IMO.

Great photograph and interplay of colors and textures. This is the kind of thing I'm more interested in than the minutiae of fits of denim and whatever monochromatic button downs/tees/footwear are currently in favor according to the most vocal SW&D regulars. I hope there's room on this thread to post outside those expectations. I'm glad to see PG doing it and hope others can follow this idea and be accepted on this thread. I know I would be interested in more of these kind of examples from other POVs.

Love the texture here -- that's the way to do black and white! Clean, simple and classy all the way, but in a way that's unexpected.

Well it has a deep v, and you're wearing jewelry, so it still has that sort of feminine touch to it, but it's subtler which is what I was talking about. Of course, we can't see if you're still wearing flares, so I have to assume you are. Sub in better jeans and I am on board.

We're just getting out of summer, when jeans and a shirt is what people are wearing. Reason I haven't posted a fit pic in months, it wouldn't be worth the time to set up for. Once fall gets into full swing you'll see more interesting stuff. It's always the way.
