Welcome back, MoK! I see your T&A tie, and I counter, kitty-corner, with N&L:

I sort of liked this tie-knot as the centre of a sartorial swirl, but for a clearer picture:

See, FNB? No problem with the dimple.

Awesome coat - deets? And I am starting to suspect (as someone else has already suggested) that the hands are always in pockets in preparation for the next shot - the gnatty shoe shot with the perfect no break pant length (achieved by yanking on the pants from inside the pockets).

just brilliant. I'm guessing the stripe in the tie is also purple, referencing the socks.

Pfft ... snobspeak. I prefer Tang (regular) to most "premium" gins for the simple reason that they don't neuter the juniper flavor (what some may describe as smooooth, easy drinking quality). That said, I do have a soft spot for Hendrick's and Junipero. Yum.

I have a friend who insists on buying everyone drinks when we're out, but he'll refuse to buy mine (I'm partial to gin & tonics year-round) unless it's with Bombay Sapphire. Sad, really.

Hell, I prefer Plymouth in a martini to Tanq. Plymouth being considerably less expensive. But I don't claim to be an expert, just a law student.

EDIT: I'll have to get my hands on some Bluecoat luft, never had it.


I would take Vox to be and Old Raj drinker, but since he is in the land of Rum, he might choose something lighter, more citrus based, and pedestrian.

lol, no, the break on my trousers is indeed, due to OCD compulsion and a tailor who understands me well enough to get it right the first time. Coat is actually from the Brooks Brothers "Country Club" collection a couple of seasons ago. A reasonable alternative to a sportcoat when I don't really need to wear a sportcoat.

Nice shoes. You and PG had me really considering buying these, but I broke down and bought the Alden 403 in brown chromexcel. Chukkas just have never looked right on me for some odd reason..
