Re: Ivy League style for today
842 haircut (had to explain this very carefully to the barber, but he's cool with it now - "the usual, sir?")
Brooks OCBD (USA made)
vintage Hopewell, West Virginia woollen basketball letter cardigan (50s - chunky for the fall)
dark L.L. Bean jeans
Ben Sherman sports socks (very hard-wearing and warm)
Keds
College-boyish on someone a tad too elderly to be wearing it. I admit it, I admit it! I hit fifty next year, but still feel sixteen...

Re: Ivy League style for today
My grandfather was a barber - only place you could get 'em so guys would knock on his door on a Sunday afternoon... no fruity flavours in convenient machines then (e.g. in the boys lav at Trinity College...)

Thanks Jim, the catalyst for me finally posting pictures was the arrival of my camera's USB cable.

Black socks with white hoops
aubergine coloured cord slacks
white/pink/red/blue BD, an old 'supermarket special'
PRL Guards stripe tie
pretty threadbare Daniel Hechter dark grey lambswool half zip sweater with stand-up collar
Vintage 'President' one-button olive, gold, black sharkskin suit jacket with narrow, pickstitched lapels, short side vents, no darts
The Ubiquitous Black Mac, which lives in my car at the moment

Re: Ivy League style for today
Yesterday was Dark Chocolate Brown Drivers from Rudy's in Paris with Dark Green Burlingtons, Bean 'Adirondack' faded Blue jeans (nice cut!), White Hanes T. & old Russell Athletic Charcoal sweatshirt.
Today is an Anglo Ivy two piece made up from a John G. Hardy soft Brown Herringbone tweed with a subtle dull red overcheck. About £700 I think from Hine when they were still in Oxford in '95-ish (too lazy to check). It was during one of their MTM promotions that they used to have once a year in the Spring back then... All Ivy details.
Brooks Blue BD.
Toffee Wool tie from Pakeman's: http://www.pakeman.co.uk/proddetail.php?prod=6586 Looks darker in real life. I nicked it off my brother.
Plain Cordo coloured belt & actual Cordo Penny loafers. Almost but not quite Charcoal socks.
It's all the same stuff to me.
