Today's Threads

Still cold outside so I'm going with a classic English Isles look for warmth and dryness and of course style. when selecting the look I started out with the suit as the centerpiece and worked the rest around it.

The suit is a Pure Wool Herringbone 3 Piece Skinny Suit purchased on Ali Express for $80, You have to be cautious of sizing since many of the vendors are from countries where the sizes run extremely small, Physically measure yourself and compare to their sizing charts prior to ordering. This suit is an XL for example. Also the delivery times are 2 to three months but worth it since you cant find Tweed style wool suits in the States.

This is a Stacy Adams Spread Collar, French Cuff, hounds tooth Blue Black and White shirt purchased for $19.99 at K&G which is standard and higher end shirts are closer to $27.

The watch is a Fashion Watch for $10 from K&G and is a Steam Punk Style watch that adds boldness to an otherwise conventional Layout. I purchase fashion watches when I like the style but know its a passing fad that is not Classic for any era. The cuff Links are $9 - $14 from K&G and are Navy Blue and Silver.

The Tie is Pierre Cardin Black Broad Cloth Weave. It adds some fullness to the Skinny suit and also bolsters the appearance of warmth.

The Shoes are Madden's in the classic 1920's style of Demi Boot. Plain classic and perfect for the transition from skinny pant to shoe.

The colors are muted but the suit is on display and framed well by the accessories.
