HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part II

CollarScholar · Feb 4, 2011

Just a quick question but IÂ´m noticing it more often. Is wearing a coloured cuffling in the lapel button hole a sort of new trend? IÂ´ve seen numerous pics and people wearing it so in the past weeks.

Sounds a little like someone I know who is very much into lapel decorations

Damn, dude. You have to be the skinniest cat on this board!!!

I like the combo. It seems to me that this suit has too much shoulder for you. It might be the angles, but it seems less sleek than most of your recent fits...looks a little big in the jacket.

You're right but I think it balances out. Sort of like a case where a little extra shoulder doesn't hurt to make the proportions better. Then again I'm loving most of the new PandArts and probably am not thinking right. Also I think I'm getting too conservative in my MC thinking but I wish his shoes were darker

LOL! I know, my GF says I need to eat more.

Cheers Mike!

I think it has a bit to do with the angles the suit is a 36R King's Fit by Ben Sherman. The shoulder/arm seems sit just inside the end of my shoulder, however the waist isn't as surpressed as my slim fit H&Ms and being a wool/linen blend as opposed to a poly blen it hangs a bit more naturally. I'm toying with the idea of having it taken in a bit which should help sleeken the silhouette.

I don't think you should take in the waist at all. Would look too exaggerated.

Would raising the arm holes help? Or is that major surgery?

We're definitely on the same shoe wavelength today; I had the same thought. This shot, however, looks smashing:

Not really MC but I won't have much excuse to wear a suit for a month and I figure I may as well see reactions from the other side. Trying out black+khaki to copy my hero ARNOLD.

Brands:
+J cashmere hat (will be wearing a lot because my hair got destroyed)

Temple of Jawnz original moto (the first one made)

Uniqlo denim western shirt

+J cropped trousers

Uniqlo wool socks

John Varvatos boots

Saddleback leather bag

Blue Challenge/First pictures on this board ever. I will have to have my wife take pics for me when I get home, I really underestimated how hard it is to take good pictures!

Be gentle!

So after the fact I realized that my PC is messed up

Suit is BB custom (not for me)
Tie is LaSalles (bluish gray, I hope the picture captures it)
Shirt is BB extra slim fit w/ Ainsley collar
PC is random
Shoes are Luigi Borrelli (made by Sutor)

Hello all. I have not posted in about a month due to the fact that my organization had a reduction in force (RIF) and I was one of the 42 people that got released. All is not lost though. I got my separation package January 18 at 9:00 am. Had a job interview that same day at 11:00 am and I just got notified today that I was hired and I will be heading to Abu Dhabi in the U.A.E. the first week in March. I am excited and can not wait to leave. Anyone here ever lived/worked in Abu Dhabi? Now my input for the blue challenge.
