You really look like the brother-in-law DEA agent from Breaking Bad.
This suit fits well in the body and has a really nice lapel roll, but the sleeves need to be longer and the trousers need to be shorter. I also think a suit with less padded, square shoulders would flatter you more. The shoulders on this one give you a blocky look that makes you seem heavier than you are.
Oh, and IMO the tie is ugly and you should tuck the pocket square down a bit so it shows just a quarter inch or so.

To me, the biggest (and easiest) improvement would be to shorten the trousers. They're a good bit too long. Other than that, your suit fits you better than most that I see! And while I'm not crazy about the tie, I don't think it's ugly.

This is generally good, but what are you doing with your tie here? It looks like you're trying to copy something you've seen in Esquire or GQ - too deliberately #menswear.


Nah, he's just copying me from last week (which didn't get your approval either :devil: )

Like your knot a lot more than mine.

I have one silly rule, though: Only one attempt tying my tie every morning. So I have to live with the result :satisfied:

Wandering well outside of my sartorial comfort zone with an ocbd, wool tie, and a four in hand


EDIT: Both the wool tie and the ocbd were post SF membership purchases. The wool tie passes and I'm getting a few more. I don't know how I feel about ocbd, but I already picked up a couple and doubt I'll need more anyway.

Same. Unless I totally get my lengths off, I don't overly fuss. Unless you were going into a business meeting, I think the knot is fine.

This may have looked better with a blue shirt, but I was in court this morning. So, white it is.

So, how does a tab collar play in court? And are you saying a blue shirt is taboo for court?

(in any case, very cool look)
