HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

[Michael81]

You know it's a good party when you show up in a double breasted blazer and feel underdressed.

The end of the week, and one day shy of my birthday (an impossibly high number). As it happens, I have less of a "birthday", and more of a "birth season", since it always seems that I am doing any number of celebratory things around this time of year.

This evening, my husband is taking me to dinner - an occasion on which to dress up well. I leave it to your judgment if mission has been accomplished.

Suit - Paul Stuart
Shirt - Tyrwhitt
Tie - London York
Braces - Lewin
Cufflinks - DVVS, NYC - a custom job, mounted pieces of British Columbian jade, a souvenir of Vancouver.
Pocket square - Harvie & Hudson, London
Shoes - Bergdorf Goodman house brand
Hat - Selentino, via JJ Hat Center, NYC

Six patterns (striped shirt, heraldic tie, paisley pocket square, Fair Isle sweater vest, checked trousers, and argyle socks) on the subway.

Brooks Brothers blue blazer, PPBD shirt, and socks, Berkley for Eljo's Richmond tie, generic pocket square, Lyle & Scott sweater vest, Orvis trousers, and Allen-Edmonds shoes.

For fans of "Piece-Of-A-Person" pictures, a piece of a person (with a piece of cardamon short bread) picture.

For fans of wearing six patterns, a typical day in the life of a six pattern wearer picture.

@psb IMHO brown tie and black shoes are not the best match. I've tried similar combination several times in the past myslef and finally gave up on it. Individually, the pieces are really nice (especially the tie), I just wouldn't mix them together.

Thank you for your comment, i think finally i will give up too, but it was worth another try to see thats it does not really match.

Alden make fine shoes, but aesthetically they are almost always inelegant, blobby things for rich old white people with poor taste.

So what kind of shoes do rich old non-white people with poor taste wear?

In the wake of a busy three-day weekend, and with drawing class this evening, a suit was not in the cards for today, so I opted for a last hurrah for a summer-weight sports jacket, a bow tie (guaranteed not to flop onto my drawing pad at an inopportune moment) and cotton khakis. Enough clothing to get me through the day, at least . . .

Sports jacket - Paul Stuart/Phineas Cole
Shirt & trousers - Brooks Brothers
Tie - Seigo, NYC
Pocket square - Ashear
Shoes - Alden (what rich old white people with no taste wear, apparently)
Cap - Stetson
