Spoo needs to be cut some slack...the man hasn't worn jeans in 15 years!

MBreinin, the suit is nice and I love the lapels. However, for some reason I can't put my finger on, it makes you look somewhat more barrel-shaped than many of your others. Maybe it's the shoulders; I'm not sure. I can see that it's not baggy at all in the waist. I've found the same inexplicable effect with some of my suits that fit well but still make me look heavier. It's frustrating.

Acrid looks good. I'm not sure I like the square, but the look overall is well done.

PandA, no offense, but that tie is former-Threadbearer material. It looks like something off a TJ Maxx clearance rack.

cpt120, love the jacket. The tie peeking out below the button is distracting, but the overall fit is great.

NOBD, of course, killed it. Very well done.

I would leave it alone only because I'm not sure if you can successfully add cuffs. But if you do get any new pants I would suggest you consider it unless it is a trim casual pant.

LOL.

The whole look is nice. Details on the timepiece?

I'm brand new to this taking and posting pics business, and I've definitely got some work to do to figure out how to make it look more natural. I have a DSLR with a self-timer, but no tripod. Therefore, I've found exactly one option for camera position so far, and as for posing, I had no idea it would be so awkward!

Thanks to all for the feedback.

Chico,

Timepiece in that pic is a Tag Heuer Monza; in the first pic, it's a Parmigiani Fleurier Kalpa Granda.
