Mine: Boss suit, navy wool. I'm 98% sure it's this, now that I've looked at it--http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/boss-black-jam-sharp-trim-fit-navy-stretch-wool-suit/3080085?origin=category&resultback=1735
For 200 bucks.
I'm kicking myself for not grabbing the grey pinstripes too. Fits pretty well out of the box, will fit much better with tailoring.

If I get one more box from CLAD, I think my wife is going to kill me. She pulled up to our driveway yesterday as the UPS guy was dropping off a bunch of boxes and she says to him "ugh my husband" and he says to her "is he going to be mad because you bought too much stuff?" and she's like "no, this is all his shopping." So, they had a good laugh. Anyway, I need to stop going on that site. I've ordered underwear, undershirts, dress shirts, polo shirts, suit, shoes, work bag, tie bar, jeans, dress pants and sneakers. The surprise hit for me so far are the Boss slim fit dress shirts...I love the fit. Haven't opened all my boxes yet.

I got the same suit, and I'm 99% sure it is the one you posted. Mine fits a little baggy, but for 200 bucks I'm going to hold onto it to see if I can make it work. The shoulders are a tad big, but I can live with them. I also bought a blue lacoste polo, a white long sleeve lacoste polo, a gingham boss black dress shirt, a checkered boss black dress shirt, 3 gitman bros gingham sport shirts, burno magli shoes, fred perry hooded sweatshirt and some calvin klein undershirts. As I type this, I realize that is a ridiculous amount, but I'm a sucker for a great deal, and most of the stuff I have been in the market for.
Boss Black Micro-Check Cotton Dress Shirt (Purple) 115.00 for 45.90
Boss Black Gingham Check Cotton Dress Shirt (Maroon) 95.00 for 25.00
Fred Perry Hoody Sweatshirt (Black) 145.00 for 56.90
Lacoste Classic Pique Polo (Blue) 89.50 for 23.00
Lacoste Classic Pique Long Sleeve 99.00 Polo 23.00
Boss Black Navy suit for 795.00 for 209.00
Bruno Magli Cap-Toe Oxfords for 425.00 for 112.00
(3) Giltman Bros Gingham Tailored Fit Sportshirts 450.00 for 155.70
(2) Calvin Klein 3 Pack Slim Fit V-Necks 65.00 for 17.00
So I paid around $666.80 for $2,278.50 worth of haul!
@Thekillabeejc - Dear god! I'm envious of your haul! Especially those bloody Bruno Magli. The sale caught me at a weird time with respect to my financial liquidity, so all I got was a pair of Cole Haan Air Coltons, but they are easily the most comfortable shoes that I've ever worn, so I'm happy with that purchase.

By the way. If there's something you missed, I would check back every now and then. I missed the Magli's, but was able to snag a pair yesterday. It seems like someone must have returned them. The only problem is that they are 11.5 and I usually wear a 12. If they are too small, I would be happy to sell them directly to some on Dappered rather then return them.
@CJJ: Yeah, close to half was on shoes. From start to finish, I bought 6 pairs of shoes. I really spread the love around, too. No two pairs are the same brand. The retail value is $1340. I spent $355. Granted, a couple of the nicer ones are "pre-owned", but there's really no other way to get those brands for those prices.

For those of you that missed the waxed cotton racer that BenR was lucky enough to pick up a while back... I really like the look of this:

Not the same, but same kind of look I think..
Just picked it up. That'll be my 3rd order since finding out about the sale ;)
Picked up the Grey/White Florsheim by Duckie Brown saddle shoes and a pair of 7 jeans. Really wanted a pair of the Fratelli Rosetti suede loafers but missed my size. Some of the recent additions to the sale have me itching to place another order, but I think my wife might kill me.
By the way, did anyone else get a box that seemed way too big for their order?
Also, if anyone picked up the Billy Reid D-Ring Loafers in a 10 and has a change of heart, please let me know.

Any thoughts on these pocket squares?
@trash: Very classy, but still too rich for my blood.
Nordstrom Rack is starting to stock them now that spring is here. They're definitely louder than these, but they do have a large assortment and they're about $8 each.
I also saw them in some other store today. I forget the name, though. It wasn't Marshalls, but it was the same kind of place. I'll try to remember the name. Anyways, their selection is more subdued, and they run about $10 each there.

Thanks, in my excitement I almost bought all four of them. I forgot about The Tie Bar, I checked and found plenty of vibrant squares for $8 so I think I can settle for those :)
I am, however, picking up a pair of the Randolph Engineering "intruder" sunglasses since I've been wanting some squared off aviators.

I have, and so far so good. I have some prescription aviators already that work well with my face, so I'm figuring there's a good change the intruder style will look good as well. For the price and quality brand, it's worth a shot, and worst case I can probably toss them on eBay or find a friend who's interested. But good advice in general.
