Slim, it’s not that there were any questions…

…about why you dress as you do, but had there been, now there will no longer be any questions. Accoutrements, indeed. Woo wee.

Many congratulations to you.:eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap What was your field of study??

Thanks, Bugsy. It's an MA in medieval studies. The degree ceremony is fairly late, I'm already several months into a PhD on medieval armourers.

Wow, what a great looking suit. Love the spectators, too. And the hat, of course.

What do you do for a living? I don't imagine everyone at the office dresses like that.
Thank you, my friend. I am a government drone. I work in a very large office, and your assumption about how my co-workers dress is well within the safety zone.

I think you also look great as always! But from personal experience, I am very hesitant to stick out too much at work. Most places aren't artistic, open minded working environments but are looking for excuses to not welcome others into the fold and help advance their careers. I try to fit in as best I can (I always stick out atleast a little anyway because my perspective is so skewed on what is normal.) I've had multiple false starts with various exciting options and how I have dressed has always been brought up :eusa_doh:
Maybe your situation is completely different, I know lots of people who can easily get away with whatever they want. For me, I'm opting for a safer route these days.

Well, at the very least, I'm sure the splash of style and color within the gray walls is appreciated by some of your coworkers.
