True enough.

Nice. Very clean.

At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums.

Bateman would never wear a cardigan!

Other stuff I've liked:

Nice tweed, but I'd prefer it an inch longer.

Great tie, and nice combining, but sorry the nappy pin doesn't work for me.

Lovely tweed and a great fit on the cords. Can't decide whether I like the tie or not.

Pants look much, much better.

These look like they deserve the DSLR treatment.

I think the shorter hair suits your overall vibe.

Nice combining. My memo got a bit twisted in the ether...

It's almost a prerequisite for having a beard. If you don't do it, you'll be hunted down and have the thing forcibly shaved off your face. Terrifying prospect, I know. And thanks! The coat's a Bamford 'great coat'. I replaced the leather covered buttons with normal ones though.

Thanks. They did fantastic work too.

Welcome. Other than the trouser-length, that first fit was excellent. Today's is good too, though the shoulder on the suit is perhaps a little strong for my taste. Either way, as others have noted, you're doing a damn sight better than I was at that age...

Thanks, I've still got much to learn in terms of more complex outfits, but for clean, classic looks, I think I'm alright. I use a Nikon D40 with some of my lighting equipment from modelling shoots to bring out natural colour, then throw a custom "sartorialist" filter on it in photoshop to change the curves/saturation. Nothing too extreme.

The shoulder on the first fit is much the same as the second, I simply moved the camera and perspective saw fit to change the slope and harshness. I actually prefer the stronger shoulder as opposed to a more natural, softer shoulder, but opinion is by definition subjective.

LOL, by default yes since I recently picked up a morning internship before class.

No contract, I just gave in, much like my union. Fitting I suppose.
