You appear to be younger than me but would you mind terribly considering including me in your will? Just the cufflinks for now. Maybe more as I become better educated.

Are you speaking in terms of just today's pair, or have you been tracking my bling for a while? I would be happy to include you in my estate planning, save for the fact that I might fear an untimely demise should you get overly enamored of a particular pair of links

I have to agree. I don't know what it is about you, TTO, but you somehow manage some very difficult-to-pull-off looks with aplomb.

Both, technically speaking, are matchy-matchy, but TTO's monochrome look is killing and Upr's (sorry to say) crosses the line for me. Maybe a different color for the tie would have avoided the Garanimals effect?

Ethan, I've posted a few pictures from your blog to Facebook (credited of course!) as examples of Sartorial Splendorâ„¢. Really good stuff.

That work as a daily driver? (Love these 50s - 60s wheels, but would be afraid to rely on one.)

- it would not be a daily driver. FWIW this has only done 36,000 kms. - I actually went in to see a 1960 Fiat 600 in pistachio green

Cool. I've been saving up for an Austin-Healey 3000 just like this one:

As stated in my original posting, a fit at variance with local standards. I can understand the objection, but this shirt seems (to my eyes) only to take a yellow tie - the choice of PS was severely un-creative, but yellow is a very dominating color with which to work, and I was out of inspiration last night when I was laying things out.
