Annoying affectations
1. Button holes finished off in brightly coloured thread.
2. One lapel - two buttonholes.

Re: Annoying affectations
When men wear their tie knot very loose and their top shirt button undone, as if they've just left a grueling day at the office and it's sweltering outside, but it's 8:00 AM and the meeting is about to begin.

Well, that at least would be a few steps up from the work attire I see every day.

Re: Annoying affectations
Otherwise normal shoes that inexplicably have some neon colored accent.
The shirts with contrast lining of cuffs and collar.
Faux military items, especially coats with epaulets.

Re: Annoying affectations
Surgeons cuffs worn undone i.e........'hey look at me, I've got surgeons cuffs'.
Shirts with more than one collar button at the neck....not button down collars obviously....they're righteous!

Re: Annoying affectations
One for the Ivy crowd. Lovely collar roll and woof's two button collar closure:-

Lawro also rocks 'slim fit' shirts although he is not particularly slim. A great look if you have contrasting inner placket.
Another good one is buttons grouped in twos as if you are wearing a Coldstream guard's tunic. Scroll down
