Re: help .. bad choice made ..

Old Hitchcock is a right Dapper Dan but is it just me or are the lines in the window-panes wonky?


I'm Reckless Reggie of the Regent Palace,
I'm in love with every gal;
I flirt with Maudie and I flirt with Alice,
I'm a real life Regent's pal.

Contrary to lies of FNB and Woofboxer, I (and most of the other "Buff Bastards") have been banned from posting on this forum. There are only a few posters left so don't waste your time on here. This forum is dead and nobody cares.

Re: help .. bad choice made ..

im feeling better after hearing all your postive advise and feeling more optimistic about pulling this off. its made me think more about colour and what works well and what doesnt. if you dress in a mechanical way wearing only well trodden combinations (navy blazer, grey flannels etc) as a uniform you never have to think carefully.

my observation that grey doesnt work with powder blue seems to be confirmed, it makes the colour look washed out? why is this? can it be rationally explained why this happens?

i like the idea of blue trousers which i like wearing anyway .. any suggestions as to the shade of blue which would look 'best'? navy or perhaps more of a french blue?

its strange that brown trousers seem to be recommended by you guys, would never have occurred to me, although i do wear brown cords a lot but with tweed jackets on a sunday afternoon at the pub mainly .. is it just the case that brown and blue are a harmonious mix?

lot to ponder here ... hmmmm.

ps you guys are GOOD at this game!

Re: help .. bad choice made ..

Just had a look in my closet, Oldfruit.  I have a lot of tweed jackets, and I'd say the majority of them have blue threads in them in some quantity.  Even the classic black and white ones have a subtle blue look to them from a distance.  And they all go well with brown trousers.  You've probably been mixing blue and brown for years and didn't even think about it. smile
