    The State of Black Tie: Your Observations

    Actually started off with a 1950's ivory linen dinner jacket but I've been working out like crazy to try and shed Covid weight and I ripped out of the back.... Good thing I had a spare. Anyway the burgundy velvet shoes made more sense before I had to swap jackets

    The State of Black Tie: Your Observations

    The only thing I disagree with here is the vents. I've always gotten vents my dinner jackets, makes them easier to wear in my opinion.

    The State of Black Tie: Your Observations

    Excuse the slippers, they were comfortable and my black patent shoes were not. This was for a kind of wine dinner thing that was in a dark dining room located behind a hidden bookcase door in a basement, so I was pretty convinced that no one would be able to tell the shoes were red and not black...

    Nah. Been there-still alive. In Zambia you can safely trade an Explorer 1 for a 200tdi (plus install)

    Well no guarantees. "Almost certainly" might have been too strong. But "probably" is good

    Nicer watch but not something you could trade for a car and a bunch of gasoline in the Balkans or Africa or something like that. I like watches that have worldwide recognized intrinsic value, which pretty much means Rolex and Patek

    Let me rephrase: how many have the scratch AND the permission? Ms. Big A would f'ing murder me if I bought another watch, and she's pretty chill... if you've been here a really long time, you already know :D
