Swung by my local camera store, and a friend amongst the staff kindly documented my outfit. This is one of the things I like with classic menswear: the color scheme is really simply (just versions of brown and white), and all the interesting bits are in the lines, the layering, and the textures.

Oh, and despite the fancy looking equipment in the background, no flash was used, just the rather terrible spotlights in the store. Let's blame any flaws on that, ok?

Colours are great and coat looks very nice but would be vastly elevated if you had a collared shirt. An OCBD or maybe even a plain white polo under that v neck.

It's a fair point. I usually wear white OCBDs (with brown horn buttons to go with the general color scheme), I was trying something different for this one, but seeing how the coat is cut (padded, extended shoulders), I should have probably gone with a collared shirt for this.
