Yes collegiate jacket is nice, the sleeve is a bit long on me. Red hat will go when it's warmer.

Not really, unless you're referring to, like, the stereotype of rose from mid '70s, sweet Californian "blush" wines.

There are plenty of very dry, good roses out there. And also bias against sweet wines a priori is sort of dumb. It's not terribly hard to find good Riesling.

was joke, I agree with you and also like riesling

I like the red. It, well, caps off the fit nicely IMO.

Rad, thank! I'll keep an eye out. Silent's gotta be on a 30 to 45-day cycle on Gilt, so hopefully something will come up before long.

Were these for me? I know the jeans gets no love, but I like the change up now and again. I have slimmer jeans and darker denim and tons of other OCBDs, just not what I happened to be wearing on this day.

I know the baggier washed jeans aren't everyone's taste though

Yeah, that was for you. Seriously, though, outside of the bolded part, great fit.

Are you seriously wearing the button that comes with that thing?

Yep..the sun is kind of hitting it and making it prominent but it's really not all that crazy or hideous looking. Just a little silver pin. I'm going to take it off though. Just kept it on for the first time wearing it..

"good fit on the pants!"

Good looking out on the fit details. I have to get one in Navy now. Great pants for summer, very lightweight

alternates, deets...

All stuff I've worn before, thrown together slightly differently. Last time I wore these pants there was an obvious crotch issue, I think wearing them at a better height and with different underwear the problem's been reduced (surgery wasn't an option) to the point that they're wearable in polite company.

Got it.

Also, not to come across as a hyper-critical asshole*, but are those sweatpants? So your outfit could basically be summed up as "sweatshirt, henley, sweatpants, white sneakers"? Add thirty years and thirty pounds of fat, and you're rocking the conceptual equivalent of what my neighbors - my loud, crass, xenophobic**, South Philly Italian neighbors - wear on a daily basis.***

I'm not saying that W+H and CP aren't worlds apart from Russel Athletics and Reebok, but categorically speaking, it's just not streetwear; it's lounge-wear, athletic-wear, or "50-something bearded fat guy drinking a Bud Lite yelling at the TV during the Phillies game"-wear.****

All this stuff is nice, but as an ensemble, I wouldn't even wear it to the drug store, much less to a restaurant, bar, concert venue, whatever.

*I'm not saying that I'm not, just that I don't want to come across that way.
**Which is kind of ironic, if you think about it.
***Ok, maybe not so much the henley.
****This is, obviously, just a matter of opinion.

^this doesn't mean much. it's overly reductionistic to take an outfit and call it out by "garment category" and then write it off as too similar to something that doesn't have to do with design.

edit: that being said I'm not usually a fan of slacktide's schtick, think he would benefit from a little more structure and a little less hoodie and sweats etc

mellow, berlin, tank = awesome
