Re: Ivy League style for today

The weather, here,  is still sunny but getting cooler, now.

I was in one of those moods, this morning,  where i didn`t want to think too hard, nor try too hard, but wanted to pick stuff via `osmosis`; stuff that was anonymous, easy on the eye and, importantly,  easy on the soul.

Reflecting this feeling, i reached for the following...


Sage green-`Sweatshirt USA` short -sleeve sweat shirt
`Grit` colour- Levi 501 Originals ( a Light, neutral, `canvas` colour:  beige/grey, or cream/grey mix. Putty? More beige than grey)
Grey- Converse `Chuck Taylor` All Stars Hi Tops

^ No socks, no watch, no jewellery.

I don`t usually wear Converse All Stars too much (too ubiquitous, too `Americana`), but the grey colour, when matched with the jeans and sweat, was satisfyingly anonymous.

If that uniqlo OCBD is like the one picked I up, it has a surprisingly good roll, HK?

Kind of a style council vibe, this evening.

Re: Ivy League style for today

The power of Gurteen! I have some of their chinos. Really not bad for the price. In honour of RPR I will supply a list.

Mackintosh Downfield
BB Indigo Linen Sports Jacket
Sky blue Facconable Shirt
Braces
Gurteen Navy Chinos
Lilac socks
Ducker and Sons Oxfords in Orangey Brown.

Actually looked alright for once. I belt the Downfield up and pretend I'm in a Melville film. Maybe I'll do over the jewellers opposite one day.
