Dragon,

You've got to get us some more digitals of your daily wear. Impeccable! Definitely inspiring me to try some new ideas.

This is the most colorful jacket I currently own and I do get a lot of compliments when I wear it (although it might be my incredible Adonis-like good looks more than the jacket). I wear loud colors and patterns, just not together

Great jacket. What events do you commonly wear it to?

Serious men don't wear colour.
Well, maybe a bit in the tie. That's it.

I abhor the depressing drabness and regimentation of today's "casual" and, however contradictory this may at first seem, find it downright gaudy.

I express myself in infinite ways through the color I wear, and I frequently pick an entire color scheme from nature; inspired by gazing out my windows at the changing colors of the sky, the treetops, and shrubbery of the park, I then translate the whole picture into an outfit.

A lovely revelation of color was in store for me after this past Autumn's golden red trees had faded. Looking beyond bare tree limbs, I discovered an entirely different palette down low among the fading shrubbery, containing surprising shades of deep teals and magentas, and burgundies, along with fresh shimmering tans, lavenders, and pale blues. So I wore varicolored tweeds along with burgundy sweaters that reinterpreted textile patterns from the 19th c. New England clipper trade. I felt very in touch with the season.

I seldom wear black, but when I wear do black or drab I do it strictly for drama.

I only wear grey, black, and white. NEUTRALS BABY!

J/K. I really like colors. Light green, yellow, purple, light red/pink, blue are all beautiful. On the other hand, my favorite color is grey (usually paired with something bright).

whenever I see Edmorel post his pizzazzy photos of his outfits , I always some reason picture in my mind his face would look sort of like M Night Shyamalan.

im sorry , Ed , please dont take this as an insult if you are not his fan. i actually think M Night 's good looking by the way.


please pm me if i should have been discrete about this opinion.

I love color. but I usually reserve it for one item per emsemble.

iammatt.... That windowpane sport coat is sweet. Nice fit. The yellow bertoia chair's not bad either....

Matt seems unhappy at having his picture taken, like "do I have to."
