While I agree with this particular shirt, I have replaced literally every single one of my shirts with the exception of this one to a spread. The only reason I have not replaced this is I can't find a comparable fabric to replace it with. Thanks though.

I'm serious. It's a very light corduroy, it's 57 degrees right now, and my office is freezing.

Yeah my office is like an ice box right now. My building is either 90 degrees or 50 degrees.

Clothes are all spot-on for your tastes; not much to critique except I'm a little surprised you like the wide spacing of the dots on the tie. Hair and glasses are both way too 70s for me, but hey, they're certainly distinctive so if you like them, great.

Thanks, but the shape/fit is pretty much distorted by the pose, so I'm suprised you can tell all that much about it from that wacky angle! It doesn't fit nearly as well as yfyf's stuff and certainly lacked a lot of the smooth contouring through chest/torso that bespoke items have; it's only mid-market & lightly altered RTW.

This is a very good concept for a look that would be improved by a less blocky-appearing jacket.

Liking this tie quite a bit; one from your new source or an older one?






Feeling downright dowdy after yesterday's fit...

Naw...the non-symmetrical tie knot works with a more casual outfit. Sorry, but I refuse to rebuke your fashion today, no matter how much you tempt and bait me. I just like the fit...deal with it.

This suit is a pale blue Oxford cloth, not white. I have always thought this one was too long as well, but there is nothing I can do because of the patch pockets. Looking at the pics, I can live with the length.

Have a good one,

Mike

Are the stereotypes about Southern lawyers true!?!?!?


Boy MB...with the flooding in your neck of the woods, I am guessing you will be spending a lot of time in a suit during this hot summer!
