So here we go with my second attempt at a digest. This week started quite slowly for me and was much more various than the last - but produced some excellent stuff.

We begin, of course, with the general category...

As passionately as I may hate the unbuttoned collar, this still looks great overall:

Love the tie and that's a very nicely fitting shirt:

Like, wow:

Another great combo:

Superb, excellent, stunning. Did I mention this is superb? My fit of the week by a country mile:

Simple, 60s, slick:

Fantastic pattern combining. Like this alot:

Looks like I get to put that terrific 3-piece in a digest after all:

Great fit - and I like the new modern-art-style TARDIS:

Just excellent - perfect, subtle combining:

This week's 'the business':

Just in case anyone had any doubts about the close link between simplicity and beauty:

Another good 'un. Classic and clean:

Great casual fit - love the jacket:

Almost shockingly sober for you - works great:

... and now for the special categories...

The prize for looking most like a character in a Bogart movie goes to:

The prize for attending parties obviously much cooler and more interesting than the rest of us goes to:

The 'I've actually no idea what that is, but it looks pretty cool' prize goes to:
WAYWT-2086.jpg


The prize for most improved WAYWRN in the course of the week goes to:
IMG_0273.jpg


... and finally, the 'shakin' that ass' prize goes to:
S7300403.jpg


That's it gents! Hope you enjoyed it.

Thanks. I did my best to maintain the traditions of subjectivity and unfairness.

"Classic and clean"...I've never thought that would apply to me.

Thanks, Ob5cur1ty!


Wasn't thinking that a first shot at a turtleneck while dying from lack of sleep would be a best either, but I like surprises.

Good picks, wonder who's next.

Nice work Obs - work has been keeping me away from the thread the last few days so it's great to see some of the highlights.

Good write-up. I can think of a couple I'd have liked to see included, but that's the nature of this digest
