BB, get thee to a core strengthening exercise class. All of your clothes will look 100x better.

Great looking corduroy blazer.

If there's enough material, I would cuff the pants togive it a more balance top to bottom look, just my opinion.

You may think you look silly but other people might not see it that way. Give it a try

You should try living in College Station, Texas home of the Fighting Texas Aggies whose school color is marron, yet their rivals of 100 years the Texas Longhorns school color is orange. Pepole see me wearing orange and I get some nasty looks but it does not bother me.

You are right niidawg the pants and jacket are too similar in color to make it work effectively. ___________________________________________________________________________ A couple of outfits from this week. The first one I wore to a friends house warming and the second one I wore this Sunday.

+1. Also, you might want to shorten your sleeves, and get pants with a lower rise.

Nice look. Shoes are great, too. Slim those sleeves, and you've got a winner.

I like this too, a lot actually, but I'd choose a different color pocket square...it seems too close to the tie color.

-knew you'd like that look...very much "you"
-thanks, I do my best, but that not epic, this:

is when it was most epic. I've started growing it 2 and a half months earlier this year, so by March, whoah, watch out!
-bleachboy, yeah. Even if time is an issue, which it is with many of us, simple core activities would take you a long way.

I thought about it, but decided against it. Without the sweater, the jacket has a touch more drape, with it, you can see its slightly fitted. My tailor and I did have a conversation about it and we decided that since the fabric was so heavy, most of the time a sweater AND that jacket would be overkill.
