Some fascinating entries on the previous page.

@AlexRamius , you have a strong personal style which references what I would call a "Northern European" aesthetic - not really SF-friendly, not quite Pitti Uomo either. But I like what you're doing. Keep'em coming!

@deacon-hh , this is one of the better fits I've seen from you. Not adventurous, but well thought out, and faultless in its attention to detail. Well done.

@Pliny , I just wish we could one day be treated to a VictorSFreturn-quality photoessay of one of your fits. Thumb-count records would be broken.

@Dennis Walter , adventurous combinations as always. Pink with brown doesn't quite do it for me. The second fit is so close to perfection though. Just the socks threw it off. But fantastic anyway. Do you ever wear a suit twice?

you can tell your tennis club, yacht club, and polo club to suck Shugs balls.

I thought we were talking about sweaters. How'd we get to balls so fast?

Well, thx!
Having a personal style is something i value! I'm not sure how to define it, but i'm having fun with it, and i think that's what matter!

Today.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Spoiler: Details

* jacket and pants from Suitsupply * Tyrwhitt shirt * silk tie and linen pocketsquare from Poszetka * Yanko boots

I wasn't sure about the accessories but decided to give this combination a go and ask for feedback. Are the tie and shirt clashing - in theory green and pink should work but I kind of wish the former was in slightly darker shade. And is the texture and shade (IRL pocketsquare is lighter than the tie) difference between tie and ps enough for them not to be too matchy-matchy? Looking forward to hearing your opinions.

The shirt in itself I wouödn't wear, the microstructure is just too busy. Pink can look great, but only a fresh, clear pink imo.

Some lovely fits over the past pages, guys. Thumbs up! My crappy pics don´t do these beauties justice...the first fabric is from Solbiati, a lightweight tobacco brown linen. The second one is from Ariston´s latest summer bunch, it only weighs 210g, which makes it the perfect summer suit imho.

Very basic, very nice. Only personal nitpick: I know many people say you can wear a white square with everything and of course you can; personally, I wear them only if some part of my shirt is also white (like in a white/light blue stripe). Otherwise, the square sometimes stands out too much as the only stark white item. Edit: hm, your shirt has just that. Hm. The square still stands out too much I think.

I feel like the tobacco jacket is really long.

Before the internet was invented, people buttoned all the buttons on three button jackets or only buttoned the top button, tucked their sweaters into their trousers, wore black shoes (or boots) with almost everything, put their hands in their pockets when having their picture taken, wore their trousers any which way (including loose), and did all sorts of other wonderful things.

After having braces buttons added and belt loops removed, I really feel that the drape of these pants have improved. I'll need to do some research to eliminate the creasing near the crotch, but I'm much happier with these atm. Thanks to Ac and Andy for the comments about my trousers before.

Still struggling with lighting today on the full size photo. Apologies, but I wanted to show the fit of the pants since it is what I've been working on.
