Good to see you back OCBD - what's the shirt ? - nice roll.
lazy bones today
Hanes T
Bean grey sweatshirt ( arms far too long so rolled up a bit, bear in mind if investing)
501's - faded 1.5 turn up.
Camp mocs
little boys school opening evening later so will change into button down and crew neck.
In bed ill
Hanes T
Striped PJ's
Hot Vimto
thinking about Bo-Jo.
Richard Bergman - I am sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. The shirt is an LE oxford.
Hot vimto is a strong look, i'm not sure if my illness today is self-inflicted. Too much fire water at the chinese last night.

That's a great summer look Zac. You'll have to be at the top of your game with those style hounds in there.
The Thinn Repp has made a valiant attempt there, but I must make one or two remarks;
The knot in his tie is far too large, especially on a knitted tie.
The lapels are too wide on what otherwise is a nice jacket.
Dark socks with chinos and bucks?
Other than those small comments, I think he looks good.
Unfortunately I cannot say the same about Tominsky. Where do you begin with this chaps look. The barbers
might be a good start. The ageing mod is a very poor look and slightly sad in my opinion. Hanging on to one's youth is desperate.
The Lee Evans jacket, the awkward huge shoes. Not good. The pants are a reasonable cut though.
Thanks
The knot is a normal four-in-hand. I don't know how to make it any smaller with that tie, which is about 3.125" wide. The silk isn't terribly chunky, my Paul Stuart knits tie a bigger knot. Lapels are between 3.25" and 3.5" wide. Trousers bottoms are 9". Cuffs are 1.75" what you get automatically ay Andover unless you specify otherwise. Socks are lighter than they appear, green and blue fine stripe.
It's a vintage jacket worn with mostly contemporary items. I find myself using vintage more and more this way these days.
Thank you Thinn Repp for that honest and very pleasant answer.
You are always very well dressed and certainly knowledgeable, so I was a touch surprised, at what
I felt, were slightly overlooked details.
Overall, l I am a great admirer of your styling and I hope you don't mind my remarks.
Regards

I'm sorry to disagree, but I thought this was a forum to discuss clothes?
Forgive me, we all come here to read your pointless travel stories and marvel (Oops, more comics) at your tiresome name dropping.
