@BenR: you are right the button stance is a bit high, I wish they were a bit lower. I got the whole suit for $110 shipped. got a couple of them (navy and dark gray).

Shirt: GAP
Tie: Thrifted
Jacket: J.Crew
Tie bar: KC
Pants: LEC
Shoes: Johnston & Murphy
I got these pants on sale for like $15 from LEC last week. Now that I have them I can tell why they were on clearance. They aren't quite in "go to hell" league, but it's a hard color to work with - kind of a deep orangey tobacco brown. Seems to pair best with blues and greys.

@technojinn - Meant to say this yesterday, but I think you would stand to benefit from a large tie knot. You've got a pretty solid neck, so I bet a full Windsor knot would look pretty comfortable, especially with the wide spread on your shirt collar. If that seems over the time, you can try the Nicky or the Kelvin. They give you the width without the bulk.

@BenR, I actually like the color as it comes across in your photo better, though I'd probably prefer it as plain chinos vs cords (at least I think those are the LEC cords...I would have bought them if I knew the brown was really that shade). Might still be more of a fall color (then again so is brown) but I would think it would pair well with white/cream (button-down or even sneakers).

Just to show how rarely I wear that Isaia tie...
I was out the door after my wife this morning so she didn't see what I was going to wear. When I got home, she complimented me on the tie, and mentioned that she'd never seen it before. We're approaching our one-year anniversary and dated for nearly two more year prior to that. :-)
