Cross post: I wanted to start a new thread so I don't get crucified for posting these crappy cellphones pictures (among other things) in the tailor's thread. However I think they give a general idea. Also, it is all I have, as I am currently at work and will be here for the weekend, but would like some feedback on a fit of a jacket since I have it here with me now. Please help and overlook the fact that the pictures aren't really up to snuff. My main focus is the shoulders. Click on the pictures for enlargement. Thanks in advance!

Opinions please on tie choice with the following:

Dark navy suit, dark brown shoes/belt, white dress shirt.

I was thinking of an orange or green tie. This will be for spring time.

How about some picks of potential tie options. Of the bat, I'm thinking no on the orange or green...

Either would work fine, depends on the shade and material.

It can be either really bad or just perfect.

I like green personally

I am in need of 1-3 new scarves and 1-3 pair of gloves. Do they need to match? I guess it's difficult given the used fabrics. They do need to work together though.
I got a black pair of leather gloves.

Can anyone give me a few recommendations.
Budget, I am not sure yet.

Dry cleaner ironed a crease in my new jeans after I dropped them off to get hemmed! Is this salvageable?

I just got a pair of Mabitex from b&s and they're pretty perfect for me. I understand they're no longer in business so my question is are Inxotex the same cut or at least very similar?

There are good odds it would come out in the wash. :devil:

Does anybody happen to recognize the jacket/coat worn by the gentleman on the right? Or perhaps something very very similar?



Here's another picture:
