Re: Ivy League style for today

^ g9 was a dark navy.





UPDATE: I went home from work and put on a thin cotton vest underneath the sweater , before going shopping at Carrefour. It had turned a bit chilly, but, after some thought,  i also think that subtle extra cotton padding was more aesthetically pleasing, with the thick woolen wadding/ padding of the crew socks and unlined suede boots ,and the close fitting natural shoulder cotton windcheater.

Nice green socks! I'd like to get a pair of straight red ones, but I can't find any.

Haha, Soggy's Sartorial Bootcamp. I don't actually mind the outfit, I'd maybe not go with the socks cause it all starts to look colour coded but otherwise it's alright I reckon. I hope there is a target on the back of that Harrington though Ox? smile

Re: Ivy League style for today

In all seriousness I think Soggs is right, in away, but it is more a question of taste. I'll go someway to boring you, I mean explaining.

Green is created by mixing yellow and blue, so it can sit with those chinos, cause, really they contain yellow to a degree, I mean they're basically a neutral. So they'll go with anything. But in terms of the outfit, that is a quite bright yellowy green on the jacket, so it needs to be rooted by a darker colour on the bottom half, like Soggs is saying with maybe that darker blue in your socks, as the colour for your chino?

Think along the lines of coupling brights with darks, patterns with plains, you know contrasts to balance an outfit, you know fit and quality are half the story, the bit of the story I tend to ignore!

I've got the same colour Harrington so I might have a go later tomo, seeing what works.

When we get to summer I will challenge the colour wheel with my awesome tangerine coloured golf jacket.

Re: Ivy League style for today

It may blow up.

Here is the deal, put what Ox is wearing with white trainers and it could work cause the point of reference for the lightest colour changes, and the other colours will look darker. But basically what Woof said, and Soggy. But I still don't mind it. I'm glad Ox has risen to Sogg's challenge.
