My brother!
I am barefoot & unashamed.

Edit: But why, Vaclav?

Pajama bottoms, seersucker robe, also barefoot, but I do have coffee.

A still-born thread I know, but the idea could have been interesting - The reasons why we are wearing what we are wearing. Most 'WHAT are you wearing?' threads are just a showcase for show-offs - people rarely post that they have just fed the cat and are sitting at the computer in their boxers waiting for the water to be hot enough for a bath... And a good job too.
I don't buy that anybody who cares enough about clothes to read internet clothing forums just picks up whatever doesn't smell too bad off the floor & puts it on for the day. There must be a wealth of information out there on peoples choices and agendas and how these are reflected in their wardrobe choices.
It's the kind of stuff that interests me.

Right now I'm killing time waiting for a phone call to go and have drinks with my Aunt: Charcoal Press sack, White Press OCBD, Navy silk knit tie, Black Sebago classics. Why? To show a little respect &, as family business is going to crop up, to show her that I'm serious. Also, by a happy coincidence, I like the look and think it suits this occasion (even though it's a little overly smart for my new relaxed persona...).

darker side of medium grey suit in 120s wool with 15% silk has a nail head look to it. A blue end on end shirt with a lighter end on end collar and french cuffs in the same fabric. White gold knot cufflinks

Medium grey wool socks, chocolate brown suede cap toes, chocolate brown suede belt with sterling engine turned buckle, orange silk pocket square with roal blue squares with black centers, and a Carlo Franco tie in blue and orange stripes.

Acorn Fabric, jumbo check blue shirt on white background, bright red solid tie, black gear shift cufflinks, solid charcoal Fresco suit in a light weight, grey socks, black cap toes, my Trafalgar bull fighter braces, Turnbull and Asser medium navy pocket square with small yellow paisleys set like a foulard pattern.


Because I just didnt feel like worying about what to wear.

Hi Archie--

I think they're new this season--called the "McCallister," I believe.  They're a nice medium brown color (called "acorn" or "tobacco" or something like that), pebbled grain, crepe sole.

They are buttery soft and comfortable, and I think very sharp.  I am not one of the Shoo Cognoscenti, so these may well be justifiably sneered at, but I like them very much.
