What are you wearing today??

[Marty M.]

Hmmm...

No offense intended, MM! Believe me, I am lucky to have an OTR Body because I haven't got a Bespoke Budget.

You'd be surprised at how easy it is to get into a MTM suit. A good MTM suit made here in the States start under $700.00 (on sale). Just the thing that our favorite Northeastern Wisconsin Corporate Executive should have .

Well, that is less of a set-back than I would have thought. I have spent more than that OTR.

I concur with my colleague, of course! These days, MTM is surprisingly viable for many gentlemen.

... And with such gifted tradesmen around the Lounge here, it shouldn't be too hard! lol

Lucky Strike --- that ascot is brilliant. You can never go wrong with a classic dot. Very striking with the orange jumper, as well. And as always, I love your suits. Well done, as usual. :eusa_clap

Nothing real special today, just thought it looked a bit like something Howard Hughes might have worn (minus the jeans and t-shirt).

I wore this to school today. I swear it looks considerably less thrown-together in person!

Dior sunglasses; thrifted sweater; Old Navy jeans (gift certificate!); tooled belt; thrifted Adam's boots. Finished with a wool peacoat, scarf and beret.

Really cute -- I would love to take a closer look at that belt. The buckle looks really neat.

And was it a raspberry beret? (Sorry, it was reflex!) lol

Nice look! I really like the boots. That's a cool way to wear them.

Great going!

 

[Lucky Strike]

Gluegungeisha; that's brilliant. I like the capri-pants effect of the jeans.

Today's effort:

TM Lewin shirt
Cording's tie
Generic charcoal knit vest
Daks suit, SB3B, one vent, slanted pockets
Thrifted pocket square
20's gold watch, engraved bezel and fixed lugs
Tiger-eye cufflinks
Dunn & Co overcoat
Boarskin gloves
Bally pseudo-brogues

 

[Marty M.]

Lucky's on top.

Outstanding outfit Lucky. You gotta love Peccary gloves. I really like your cuff width. It looks at least 3"?

Great job PM.

Silver pocket watch, left trouser pocket, with silver chain clipped to trouser waist (this chain "rhymes" with the tie chain)
Allen Edmonds dark brown suede "Delray" split-toe lace-ups

Here's a funny thing PM, I just sold a new pair of the suede Delray about an hour ago. Great shoe. The bummer is that they'll be discontinuing the Delray in suede.
I'd love to see how your pocket watch clips to your trousers.

[Dinerman]

1920s hat
swiss overcoat
herringbone shirt
black trousers
gray leather shoes

I'd love to see how your pocket watch clips to your trousers.
Marty Mathis

The chain the watch came with has a clip that I attach to the waist either behind the belt, or between the brace button tabs.
