Avio blue herringbone Harris tweed sack (3/2 and all that jazz), white BB OC3BD, slim repp tie (kinda RAF pattern), mid grey parallels (italian cut), dark grey socks, Alden 563 Cordovan tassel loafers. Vintage Wiler Vetta watch worn over the cuff.
Persol 649, ink blue wollen scarf, brown peccary gloves and a short, pale grey muted herringbone chesterfield coat in a warm and soft Zegna material (from my dad; early 70s, judging by the lapel's shape). I forgot home the grey porkpie..

Re: Ivy League style for today
bandaid coloured shoos by Mr KISS.
lt's gone from Winter straight into summer weather (no Spring weather). lt's a shock to everyone's system. Going [suddenly] from 14 degrees to 35 everyday is not good. The biggest heat wave ever recorded for this time of year; very scarey.

Re: Ivy League style for today
A rather rainy day here:
Blue Brooks OCBD, full cut.
Navy Cotton Cableknit Crew, Landsend.
Mid-Brown Herringbone 3/2 Tweed Sack, J. Press. But not the modern J. Press, the real J. Press...
'Heritage' flatfront Khakis from LL Bean. 1.5" Turn ups.
Grey/Grey/Grey Burlington Argyles.
Cordo coloured Rockport full-strap Pennies with Rubber soles.
Fawn London Fog Mac. Black Brolly from Smith's.
... Working towards one of those Brooksian haircuts from the old catalogues - You know those guys with their glasses perched on the end of their nose wearing cardigans & BDs with 'Odd Trousers'?
'Mawicke' captured them best. IMO.
It's almost the old Cavalry Officer's cut, but given a US twist. In the UK the hair would be flatter.
