With that brown jacket a dark heather green moleskin or flannel would look nice. With the original gray jacket I would have gone for a darker pant.

Sadly, I can spare only one dot for each of you, but together, très ÜberFoo.

This is perhaps the highest accolade that can be given. By winning this honor, each of you may now tie a discreet, narrow silk ribbon in cream through your jacket lapels.

I'm not sure about darker pants (but would like to see it foof'ed to be sure).

How 'bout white flannels with the grey coat? (Would like to see that foof'ed as well...)

The modified version of the outfit with a brown jacket looks very good. The fact that it doesn't stir discussion is not necessarily a bad thing. It's easy to do that.

I prefer the brown coat. Much better. I think his grey coat is a near miss because the pattern isn't strong enough to create enough contrast with the trousers. A stronger grey pattern coat could work.

Those *** magazine guys are usually not against flashy/dandy colours. Can we settle on a darker grey jacket with a purplish POW?
