Quick snap on the commute yesterday - had a play at adding silly filters, but I'm not quite sure it's good enough for the spicy pumpkin challenge :embar:

Awesome. You look much slimmer these days too.

Thanks - the cinch pants are pretty slim (arguably a little slim for pairing with a heavy Bedford ...). Swapping to shooting with a longish lens rather than cropping from a wide angle helps too ;)
I have managed to shed a few pounds though :)

^^I don't necessarily love the Bedford in that fit -- looks a tiny bit floppy in shoulders and sleeves.

Have you tried it with a slightly structured CM blazer, maybe in a Harris tweed? Might bridge the CM/SWD divide quite nicely

Yes I sometimes wear Harris Tweed when I'm not in a suit - I think just getting round to giving the Bedford a press (first outing since I picked it off the bottom of the wardrobe floor from last Winter) - it's unstructured but not normally this sloppy :)
