My father in law gifted me a very special piece last night because it no longer fits him. The weather isn't right for it here today, but I'm going to try to work it into a WIWT pic before the end of the week.


@here: Nice scarf. I think they're under-utilized around here. And the Chesterfield looks great. How the wight on it?

@Alan: It's probably a Medium Weight. It was in the high teens low twenties here in Atlanta for a few days last week and it kept me warm. May be warm enough in the single digits but it's probably not going to get low enough for me to find out here.

You wouldn't know it from the pics, but I was going for some color today. The goal was to work some red, blue, and yellow into a single scheme. Call it an "exercise" or an "experiment" or whatever you want.


It's hard to tell from the pics so I'll just describe the jacket. It's blue/navy gingham on a pale mustard yellow background. Found it at a thrift store for $3 so I figured I'd give it a go. It's a 3-button jacket, but the top button is lower than any other 3 button I've ever owned. I tried it as a 3 roll 2, but the stance was old-mannish(and for a patterened jacket, that's a double whammy). So I'm just wearing it like it was intended. It's also ventless, but it's the only ventless jacket I've ever owned that draped well over rear without any separation in the front. (BTW, Today is my first day to wear it since I bought it.)









Shirt: Banana Republic - navy/white micro stripe

Tie: Tommy Hilfiger (inherited)

Jacket: Nautica (thrifted)

Pants: Banana Republic

Shoes: Poulsen, Skone & Co.


... and I was such a hurry that I ran out the door without a belt... again.

Hope you had it dry cleaned. Jackets that old, I wouldn't wear much outside of trying it on before I dry cleaned it. especially if you think its got some decades under its belt.

[alan]

LOL Yeah. No worries.
