I've got that same blazer that Acoustic is wearing today. It's quickly becoming a staple piece for me (at least in the warmer ends of the seasons)

[Acousticfoodie]

@Jordan: Sweet! It's one of my staples as well. I'm starting to prefer cotton over wool blazers more even in the winter since It gives off a more casual vibe with more breathability.

You guys all dress so well! I need to start catching up.

thmage, Compliments? Aw, shucks. ...go on.

@bruschetta I'm really liking your fit w/ the mctavish

- I know the mctavish is a great casual shoe for jeans. do you wear them w/ lighter colored chinos or chinos w/ creases in them?

[bruschetta]

itsm3json, Thank you. The McTavish's are great for dressed up casual outfits. I only wear them with dark colored pants such as dark wash jeans, navy slacks, charcoal slacks, etc. They might look a bit off with casual chinos.


The pants that I was wearing in those photos were Bonobos' non-iron navy "Monday Blues": http://www.bonobos.com/monday-blues. I prefer my pants to have a nice crease and a crisp silhouette, but (ironically) the non-iron material is almost impossible to keep ironed.

Hehe need to iron out the end of my chinos there!

Nice oufit Acoustic. Strands? Which BR blazer is it? Can't seem to find any on the website with a right chest pocket.

[Acousticfoodie]

@mixto: Thanks! Oh it's actually on my left pocket since I took a pic against a mirror. Its the blazer they had 3 months ago that is no longer on their site. And yes those are Strands, I hear you are planning on picking up some strands yourself soon from one of the other threads...first pair of AEs?

[mixto]

Yes, getting the strands, hopefully the first pair that I keep. I tried the clifton at the previous sale, but aesthetically they just didn't do it, a bit too plain.

[itsm3json]

agree w/ mixto acoustic, I love the simplicity of your fits.

- looks really polished

- I received my strands yesterday, but had to send them back due to some issues. Another brutal 2wk wait for the replacements lol.

[Acousticfoodie]

@itsm Thanks! I love simple things :-)


!? What was wrong with your first pair of strands?

[itsm3json]

the 1st pair suffered from heel splitting.

2nd pair - bowing at the ankles

3rd pair - a charm? lol

[Acousticfoodie]

@itsm: Ah, hopefully you'll get a perfect pair this time!
