LOL. Wow, glad I could help. That was a good read!

Hey mellowmanace. I got it off the B&S forms about 2-3 weeks ago NWT. I agree that is the best one, I've been looking for it in this brown colorway for ages, essentially since I joined the forums with no luck. Saw it pop up and jumped on it instantly. I absolutely love the cardigan.

Really wanna improve on this side of the board, so I'll be posting more casual fits here...please don't hesitate to rip, but I'd appreciate some suggestions on how to improve it as well...
Tail end (hopefully) of the swine flu. Had to get out of the house today, feeling a little better, and going outside in the cold air helped even more. Can't wait to resume normalcy.

Looks good to me.
Hopefully I will still be looking good once I graduate and start teaching.

^^ The cuffs on your jeans have never really looked good to me. It might be a matter of only turning them up once, or letting the jeans stack more? They look too short in the picture for my taste. It's also hard to tell how the duffel fits, but it isn't really flattering your mid-section.

To give you an idea of the proportions (sorry, in centimeters): the trouser leg width at the ankle is 20 cm, the cuff heigth is 5 cm (I'm 1.88 m).
Thanks!

Thanks fellas. Kvc, if there's still time choose a different profession...the way things are headed in this country, teachers are losing more and more control with what they do and how they do it...or get into administration, which is what I'm thinking, as I'm already 10 years in.

dis...yea, they are a bit short, and they are twice rolled, may try to revert to either the single of doing a bit of "stacking" but they've been cuffed for so long that may not be an option. As to the coat, think its just a ****** indoor pic...still feeling ****** so I didn't wanna lug the camera and stand outside to do a shot...once I'm feeling better I'll do some better ones with the jacket...thanks.

Slim that coat down and trim your beard a little Tevye, also maybe let your jeans stack a little on your oxfords to make the leg/foot transition smoother (but this is mostly fine, the socks look great).

Oops, double-post.

Nice, what are the shoes?

no offense but thats terrible advice. if you really believe that you should definitely leave. i know you're 10 years in and my own opinion may change once i've been in it as long as you have but it saddens me to hear this and i've heard it more than once. i come from washington DC, which has some of the worst schools and am the only person in my entire family to graduate h.s. and college. nobody in family ever took an interest in my education, seriously. the only reason i was able to do so was because i had a handful of teachers and advisors that truly cared about teaching. i am actually applying for the NYC fellows program, hopefully i get in. i am really looking forward to working with inner city kids, despite the politics and disadvantages. it means a lot to me and i am sure it meant a lot to you at some point. i realize you're trying to help but the state of the America's school system is discouraging enough already. btw i love your fits, all of them. i think this one of my favorites tho.

LOL, cez..I'll pm you the message I sent to kvc...don't wanna **** up the thread more than I have. One of my buddies is a teaching fellow, 3 years in, and he still loves it, but he may not get tenure this year...anyway, check pm
