tis a rainy fall day, and I wish I had a nice trench coat this morning. Add it to the list....
burgundy pennys
slightly baggy light tan 5-pocket cords
BB blue OCBD
slightly baggy thick cotton cable knit sweater, in navy blue (yes, I have too many navy sweater options)
in a mood, so was aiming for comfort more than anything else
Tom/AQG:
Great high button rolls on your suits. So much smarter than the 3 roll to 2 IMHO.
Conor, I think that jacket is a fantastic example of the English influence on American clothing. Or, at the very least, of the American desire to incorporate elements perceived as being English.
EDIT: Looks great with the jeans and check shirt. Very casual but smart. May be a bit preppy for some in these parts, though.
