Very nice, gentlemen - you put me to shame! Not very long ago, my wardrobe was comprised entirely of oversized, years-old stuff from old navy and wal-mart. I decided to start dressing better, but I'm around the house most of the time nowadays, and I haven't worked up to wearing a suit for that.

This outfit is nothing by your standards, but may be a personal best for casual-wear. I think it works for the grocery shopping and errand-running I did today....... Possibly better untucked or with lighter jeans, but it's a start.

Let me know what I could improve. Thanks!

Looks good Nathan! Shirts a tad bunched up front, i avoid this by gathering any excess at the side seams, pulling outward, then "folding" to the rear. Takes a bit of practice but easy enough to master and really improves the front aesthetic.

A minor niggle in the long run of course.

I learned civilian clothing is authorized for ID photos and since mine expires tomorrow, I've opted full beans on the photo. Never get to do THIS again so....hehehe?

Almost worth getting hauled to the hospital in handcuffs over, courtesy of Ashley Sauber at Allen Edmonds. I'll tell you the story over drinks sometime.

Buddy, I suspect you have many stories to tell that would require many drinks.

(also, I agree. Nice boots!)

No sense living a boring life.

I may not have Woolf Barnato's money, but I figure I can still have a full resume.

Wow, that is a fantastic looking pinstripe suit! I dig the wide peak lapels. Thanks for the shirt tucking tip, I'll try it next time.

I notice often the optical-opposite colored (or trimmed) pocket square is just the thing. I'll have to try it next time I get dressed up.

Here's what I wore today. It's one of the few times I've tried to put a shirt under a sweater (or any layer under any other layer for that matter). I messed with different shirts and a couple of v-necks I've obtained until I arrived at this. I think it works.

The doc martens I was not sure about (meh on them in general), but their color works for me. What say you?

Windy day calls for chili fifth aves and extra s130s layers.

Joe likes polos, chinos and chukkas...in the summer I'm almost always polos, chinos and loafers





Polo - Brooks Brothers
Chinos - Lands End
Belt - Banana Republic
Shoes - Bass
Socks - J Crew Factory

[nathan miller]

I go back and forth between the MInistry of Supply "Apollo" polos and these......the Charles Tyrwhitt "Smart Jersey" variety.


What I like about these is the collar - stands up nice and has a hidden button-down feature which keeps them looking nice. I'm about 50/50 on tucked vs. untucked - depends on where I'm headed.

Family event today, so going casual

I think boots in june are fine, but I need to look into some loafers - Yours look great for summer, MIke.

BOOT SEASON IS ETERNAL.
