Black jodhpur boots (the first shoes without laces I found this morning)
Light blue, beige and brown argyle socks for a bit of invisible colour.
Mid-brown cord jeans (quite a 'bright' brown) - nothing cosier than cord on a dull damp day. No turnups.
Black leather belt, one of those brown/black reversible affairs.
White polo shirt, couldn't decide on any other shirt this morning.
Mid-grey wool crewneck (to match temples)
Navy blazer (need the pockets and goes with everything).

^ Chum, you like the old Athletic T. best? The kind which doesn't show at the neck?

Best -

Gotcha.
Aren't they also called 'Y shirts' by some?
(Because of the shape)

Not sure...

Friday!

black brogues (my 'go to' shoe - if it ain't brogue, don't fix it) and dark grey socks

dark jeans, rolled up; old black belt with brass buckle (these jeans have gone from gardening, to work and to restaurants - I have become a big fan of plain STF jeans)

navy BD (C&A polycotton, there, I've gone and admitted it. I don't know why, but I get the best fit from very cheap shirts. Non-iron; if you tried to iron it, it would probably melt)

navy high-necked zipper cardigan, with two pale blue stripes across the chest, a present from my mother-in-law. Acrylic!

Harrington jacket and short wool houndstooth scarf, bit of a nip in the air this morning

big black polka-dot snuff handkerchief in back pocket (I used to take a lot of snuff and I've decided it's time to start again)

Black chelseas, navy socks, dark jeans rolled up, old black belt.
Long-sleeved white T under thin blue raglan v-neck.
Blue cotton track top with white stripes on sleeve.
Dark brown leather car-coat and dark red/green challis scarf.

A bit 'Nu Chav' today.

Ebayed AE Macneils, brown pebblegrain in 11 3e. My shoe repairman swears these are vintage from 50's or 60's.

He said made better than current models.

These were too wide when I got them, but now that my podiatrist informs me im getting arthritis in my foot from years of retail on my feet, I now need to wear arch supports.

I swear my body is going to hell. 40 is fast approaching.

Now, amazingly, they fit perfect!

Now all I need to do is restock my shoo collection! Ugh.

(Why am i starting to post like DukeGrad? Thanks Jimmy.)

Nice day fellas.

Brown nubuck driving mocs, blue/beige/brown argyles, rolled-up dark jeans, brown leather belt, navy BD, almost-black cotton knitted square-end tie, wool/cashmere tweed jacket in brown/black/blue, brown leather car-coat. Together with the No. 2 crop on top, a good 40% on the 'Skinhead Geography Teacher Scale'...?
Slight effort to look half-respectable for a colleague's 50th at work today.

why am i wearing:
- a cream vintage lacoste polo
- faded levis w/ turnups
- beige socks

..working at home so i feel i don't need to dress up more than this

why didn't you wear black tie to the Symphony?  Or even tails.  Or, my pref: a stroller, any time of the day.
