Re: WHY are you wearing...?

Here comes the scruffy guy then:
dark brown Clarks walking shoes, navy socks, dogshit-brown cords, brown belt w. light stitching, navy T, mid-grey crewneck, beige Harrington, black/white houndstooth scarf.
Lots of doggy references in the last couple of posts I see.

Just clothes for work. The Harrington (like the blue blazer is purported to do) does pull it all together and sharpen it up.

Re: WHY are you wearing...?

^The Harrington is a great piece of clothing. It smartens up your look if your other gear is scruffy, but you can wear it with really smart clothes as well. I'm tempted to buy one more.

I'm wearing:
dark tan longwings
blue jeans with cuffs
blue & white ocbd
off-white v-neck
beige duffel coat

why? for comfort and it's a nice look

Re: WHY are you wearing...?

I'm also in a red gingham shirt, from J Press.  With a black wool knit tie, olive green w/ red windowpane "hacking jacket," jeans, and brown chelsea boots.

Because it's supposed to rain buckets today, and the coat is just the right weight under my rain jacket to keep me warm without overheating.  The boots are also anticipating the wet.

Re: WHY are you wearing...?

It's nearly 70F here today.  Rainy, but warm.  It's really, actually spring (there were daffodils in the flower beds this AM) so:

3BSB RAF blue suit with light blue bead stripe in a wool/mohair/cashmere blend
White shirt with the silver tiki links (I'd have gone for a fun check, but I have to look a trifle authoritative today)
Pink mogador tie with navy/white BB #1 style stripes.
light blue/white mini-houndstooth silk square
Brown gator belt
Brown captoe double monks
The old Bulova
The Brigg

Re: WHY are you wearing...?

On holiday, this means gardening unfortunately.

In garden footwear: light poncing about the garden - silver crocs. Heavy poncing about the garden, 10 hole work boots. Poncing about the garden centre: loafers.

Dark jeans, rolled up.

Lemon piqué socks.

Almost exclusively, navy Guernsey. Grey sweatshirt of an evening, because of the cat hair.
