Out of sight is a surcingle / lizard belt, yellow university stripe shirt and a blue fresco half-lined sportcoat with smoked MoP buttons.


Consider me intrigued

Some of your suit jackets/SCs look a bit 'off' to me Orge, usually in the front quarters area but I can't put my finger on what it is, but this jacket fits you very well, and you've combined it with a nice set of complimentary duds too. Great job.

Sakura festival in Fairmount Park with the wife. Tried to get into the spring spirit with a BB pincord sack coat, navy trou, hand-painted sakura tie and sakura ps. …and some scenic shots. Forgive my poor quality phone photos.

Great tie. Those pants come out as a very dark navy in the pic - almost too dark, imho.

Thanks. If you care to point out specific examples, I'd love to get a better idea of what you're talking about WRT my other jackets.

I'm sure some will hate the scarf, but I got it when traveling through mexico and central america at 18. Sentimental factor, you know

Actually, I'm on leave (wore the suit to a fancy local political function I attended with my mother)... other than that, just relaxing at the beach, getting more tattoos and simply enjoying the fact that I don't have to salute anyone for a while

Will do going forward. It seems like your suits and jackets often seem to fit you well around the shoulders and chest but the vertical balance seems off, like they are short/tight - perhaps 'truncated' is the best word I can think of - around the lower quarters which doesn't flatter your build. I'm not suggesting that you should go for loose, baggy quarters and as ai understand you thrift a lot of your gear for enviably low prices it may just be a nit pick as I'm pretty sure you are regarded highly among the better dressed SF igents.

For a minute I thought 'when did Russel Brand join the forum?' but then I remembered you're not a long haired English fella but a beautiful exotic lady. Scarf looks fine!

I think it's a very unique touch.
