Or a crime scene, where it would be great for confusing the witnesses.

Feel free to bring on the harsh criticisms.

Thanks,

The button-down collar on the shirt does not work for me.

I keep trying to convince myself that I do not need a sub.

Really like the blazer with the pearl (?) buttons, too.



Thanks. I was in a cheerful mood.

Yes, they're mother-of-pearl buttons. The jacket is actually part of a suit, and came with a choice of smoked grey or white MOP buttons to attach. It's a lightweight part-lined suit, so I opted for the white buttons precisely so it could do double-duty as a spring/summer odd jacket. It still works as an unconventional suit too, despite the light-coloured buttons.

Funnily enough, I like today's look from you, esp. the tie.

Correct; it's the silk & linen. And thanks!

One of the best first WAYWRN posts I've seen. Everything is awesome except the shirt, a spread collar would look really good I think. Good job overall though, really solid performance!

This jacket is criminal genius. Run in and do your deed and they see a white jacket. The bystanders viewing the aftermath see a man fleeing in a blue jacket.
