Robbo - Agreeing with everyone else - Very nice outfit.

The belt is a very dark brown but always photographs as black for some reason.



shirt - club monaco
pants - JCP
shoes AE Malvern
vest - LE

Thanks, Vicious. Sorry for the delay in acknowledging the compliment. Got a little swamped here. LOL

Regarding your outfit here in this pic, I see what you mean about the shirts from CM and JC/JCF fotting you better than those from BR. Sometimes I feel I *too* am in the middle of sizes at BR (between a M and a L for me), but I have yet to try shirts from those other shops. I should. Thanks for the idea. Oh, and yeah, that belt does look black in the pic. Weird. Doesn't look too bad though, as the boots have a pretty strong black sole edge, plus as you say in person it is dark brown anyway. Nice getup all around!

@yoyo - like everyone else said, you dress implacably! Masculine yet polished!

Guys, what do you think of this shirt? I had it for ages, but rarely wear it, I feel it is a bit too much...

*Implacably*? Oh sure, make me get out a dictionary, Matt. LOL - Thanks man. I just hope that was a positive description. Ha!

Also, I like that shirt of yours there with the white collar. Like someone (MarkB, I think) said earlier in a comment/review, in most cases I *don't* like that look - the white collar/cuffs, with a darker main shirt body. But in this case, I think it works. Not too drastic of a contrast. Plus the pattern mixes it up too. Good look!

Hey, guys. Long time follower of Dappered but first-time poster. Here are some late-winter and early-spring getups, hence the over-abundance of Barbour:

Welcome aboard!

Love those Florsheim longwings (Veblen? Haviland?). They also look brand-spanking new - like the box is still there on the floor with the toe stuffing paper. LOL - Did you just get them. Not ripping on that - just looked like you couldn't wait to get them home, and get them on. I couldn't either. They rock!

Also great outerwear. Looks like you spend quite a bit of time outdoors, and have equipped your wardrobe very nicely in that regard. Love that corduroy blazer too. I need one of those for next Fall/Winter.

Cool pics. Keep 'em coming!

My nearly all Banana Republic getup (seriously, the place is pratically my close).

I hear ya, brother. LOL - BR has taken quite a bit of cash from me this past year. All good though. All 40%-50% off, or even more on clearance stuff. Great look in your pics there. Nice!

Shoes: J&M

Dig those kicks, JoeG! Any idea which model of J&M? Oh, and stay warm. LOL

Getting in on the WIWT action! Budget-friendly get-up as I build my wardrobe...[IMG]

Blazer: Stafford
Shirt: Stafford
Pants: ON slim-fit chinos
Watch: Timex Weekender
Shoes: Stafford wingtips (not pictured)

Man... another example of the great direction JCP was headed in. Sad to see it go.

For sure. I think they really eff'd up this recent direction/decision. Really nice outfit there, Wcobos. Clean, classic!

My first WIWT post....

Title: Classic on a Budget
Shirt: Gap Oxford
Jeans: Levis
Belt: Target
Sunglasses: Old Navy
Shoes: LEC Desert Boots

I'm kinda surprised. Seems like I've seen some from you before, but maybe just dialogue on other posts. Regardless... welcome to WIWT!

I'm diggin that *splash* of green with the belt. Not something I would've thought to try. Even saying sounds weird to me, but looking at it... it works, man!

Was a bit rainy in the morning but seems like the sun's finally out!

Coat: Timberland Trench/ raincoat

Really like that trench, pratyk. I have a hard time seeing myself in the ones that are usually touted on the main site - a little too much Inspector Gadget to me, I think. But that one there of yours looks like something I'd feel comfortable wearing. Nice!

[yoyorobbo]

Yeah I can't alter image size so if I have a 800x1000 I can't force it to display as a 300x450 to keep the resolution nice but not take up an entire monitor.
So I get to play with photo buckets resize to find one that doesn't display as tiny.

Oh, I know! I upload pics from my iPhone to imageshack, then have to go to my PC to DL them and re-upload them, resizing in the process (Why? I have no idea. Anyone know how to resize them on the iPhone?). Ugh. The first several I posted here, before doing the resize, were downright obnoxious!

[yoyorobbo]

Thanks. Wait...Up or down?

LOL - I vote *up*! Details, gentlemen. It's all in the details. Well, sometimes. Other times, it's all in the "OMG, I'm late - eff the details!"

Nice, MarkB!

[yoyorobbo]

They're landsend Fulton - bit pricey, but welted, and on sale

Brown, and thanks. They're a little purple-y (almost as if someone added a smidgen of black polish) - i tend to lean a bit casual, so these are classing me up a bit.

Those look very similar to my TBNY loafers. Seems like a few brands have that similar (if not exact) cut/look these days. BR has one like it, so does DSW (house brand - Aston Grey?), and probably others. It's a real modern vamp and shape, and I think they looks great.

First post in WIWT (show mercy), just a bit casual today inspired by the styleblogger and a few posters here who have rocked a similar look.

You got the Foodie thing goin' on there, bud! BTW, that's a *good* thing. (See AcousticFoodie's post right after yours.)

Welcome to the wonderful world of WIWT. WWOWIWT?

I'm diggin that *splash* of green with the belt. Not something I would've thought to try. Even saying sounds weird to me, but looking at it... it works, man!

I totally agree regarding the belt. It adds more I would have thought it would. Is it green all the way around, or just at the front?

Taking pictures of oneself is really awkward.



Perry Ellis linen cotton (want to take the lining out; it's thrifted, so why not try it? Anyone tried this?)

Bring back the beard!

The return of the facial sweater will have to await the return of sweater weather.

There's always photoshop. Kidding, of course. Slick outfit per usual Shomas. Especially dig the Florsheims.

Uhm... congratulations? Or... condolences? Hope all is OK and you're just enjoying some tuneage of your choice. If things in RL are mimicking art, then sorry bud. Hang tight.
