Is there any color that doesn't go with your skin tone? Life isn't fair.

Channeling blue for the Bolts by the Bay...

 

[1st Step]

For once, my pictorial offerings today have little to nothing to do with today's weather in NYC, albeit the weather is pleasantly mild, with partial sunshine and low humidity. They have much more to do with my acquisition of "new toys", and my need to see if these latest additions to that cabinet of curiosities known as my wardrobe can work and play well together with the oddities already acquired.

Today's suit is from the New York branch of New & Lingwood, acquired at a most advantageous price, as the shop was closed for several months due to the pandemic, thus leaving them with a lot of stock that they are looking to move, in order to make room for new fall items. I happened to drop into the store, and saw today's suit on the rack, and was intrigued - even more so, when it turned out to fit me quite well.

The photo shown with me wearing a a quilted jacket is another recent "crime of opportunity" - something which presented itself at my local Saks Off Fifth (no snob I - I am quite democratic as to where I will spend money), and the acquisition of which was actively solicited by my husband, who on occasion decides that I "need" something - in this case, a lightweight Barbour.

As much as the weather today is mild in NYC, both of today's featured acquisitions are much too wintry to wear for some months now, so today's photos were for demonstration purposes only.

Suit - New & Lingwood

This suit alone looks wonderful on you. The rest of the ensemble elevates it further.

Stepping into the autumn months and the weather has turned cooler right on cue - nothing in the forecast above about 20c. Today it is only 17c. So, to celebrate the new season it is a light Italian flannel suit and a pair of 30+ year-old English brogues, just back from refurbishment:

The weather is mild, albeit overcast here in NYC, reminding one that autumn is coming, though, I am sure, not without some surprise bouts of summer heat in the interim. As the season for today's jacket and trousers is winding down, I thought that I might get at least one more wearing out of both before they're retired for the season.

An amusing side note - the museums in NYC are starting to re-open, the Metropolitan re-opening for members last Thursday and Friday. I visited the Met last Friday afternoon, attired, as was shown in this thread, in a deep lavender sports jacket, white shirt, navy linen trousers, and purple bow tie - not exactly anyone's idea of a uniform. However, with the scarcity of neck ties of any sort these days, I was approached three times during my visit by other visitors, thinking that I was working for the museum, asking me directions and such - odd, as there was no lack of security staff around, all uniformed. I must have a proprietary air about me, wherever I go.

Sports jacket - Saks Fifth Avenue house brand
Shirt & trousers - Brooks Brothers
Tie - Paul Stuart
Pocket square - Ede & Ravenscroft, London
Shoes - Carmina
Face mask - New & Lingwood

Fox Brothers/WM Brown/21 Club Flannel as a bit of a fall/winter test. Loving it.

Today's outfit: A new suit for an old play (King Lear). This one is from HKT Clothiers in Chamblee, Atlanta. I visited with @jiredell as we each got fitted for our respective garments. I included the picture from a few days ago with the full three-piece suit, along with today's two-piece variation.

I opted for a more relaxed fit than my usual, and went with a quarter-lined jacket, intending that the jacket could be worn in the summer, and then transition into colder months with the addition of the waistcoat. I believe this is gesturing towards what they call a "British" fit? Either way, I'm most pleased. Multiple conversations with the lovely and stylish @Andy57 nudged me towards the more vibrant blue, rather than a subdued navy.

Stay safe. Stay sane. Speak truth to power.

Do you have details on what the trouser fabric is? I'm after some charcoal odd trousers.
I'm assuming they're bespoke/mtm, but congratulations on finding RTW that fits that well if they aren't!
