Interesting. However, the shirt appears as a solid unless you are 6 inches away. I purposely chose it because it was more interesting than a solid.

Me likey. Just enough FU to cause one to pause, but not enough to be OTT.\\

PG, though I've never been one to lavish praise on any one poster, I think that your pics demonstrate an elegant "lived in" look. Your suits never look too perfectly pressed, as if they should be museum pieces. I like it.

Who was it that used to beat his new suits against the wall, Astaire?

That's exactly what I was going to say. Swap out a white shirt and leave everything else. As of now, there are too many patterns and too much red. The tie has great texture, which gets lost with the shirt vying for attention underneath. The pocket square already pops so much that there's a lack of focus when paired with the red shirt. I think the otherwise black/gray/white outfit works perfectly fine for spoo's aesthetic with the bold PS and the coordinating socks.

That is a splendid combination of darker grey and blue shades. I know it is against the rules, but the BD collar passes in my book.

God, I hope not. I am busting ****** to lose the 20 pounds I have let creep up on ****** over the last 10 years or so. I have unaltered suits hanging with tags in my closet that I am not touching until I am there. Baggy clothes blow dead bears.

Spoo, why do you insist on combining red/burgundy with pink? It really is a revolting combination. I love the suit and the tie though. Different shirt and square and this would have been money. I also am really digging your shoe choices lately (except the toxic green). I like seeing all of the black kicks.
