10/26/09 - Monday

Suit: Jos A Bank / Shirt: Perry Ellis / Tie: Jos A Bank / Belt: Black leather



Couldn't decide whether to go with the back up tie or not this morning.

* If you don't already, I highly recommend you keeping a spare tie at your cubicle. You never know when it might come in handy (wardrobe malfunction, impromptu executive meeting, blood/crip visitation, etc).


Red or Blue pill: Trying to decide what tie to go with

Decided to go with the light grey cords today to offset the dark pullover.

The WeekEnder:

Shirt: H&M / Belt: GAP / Pants: Old Navy



Flew from NYC to LA today, here's the simple outfit I wore during the trip.

As I prefer comfort over anything else, I decided to roll with a pair of bequem seersucker pants I got on sale at Old Navy for about $8.

If you haven't already, go out and get a couple of basic long-sleeve shirts from H&M, they are super comfy, come in a wide assortment of colors (I prefer the bolder hues btw) and provide a great basis to build outfits from.


Packed and ready to go... Yeah I like to pack light...


Mashing out Saturday morning to catch the flight...

Sweater: H&M / Shirt: Barrington / Belt: GAP / Pants: Lucky jeans



Here's an outfit you could find me typically wearing on the weekend.

Again, I hate suffering from visible-undershirt-syndrome so I opted for a V-neck undershirt to avoid this.






Argyle patterns aren't just for socks and sweater-vests, dangit! (Me venting)


Almost home...

Suit: Jos A Bank / Shirt: Jos A Bank / Tie: Old Navy / Belt: GAP



Here's a slim tie/shirt combination that has been worn previously, paired with a suit.

As Egooneezer would say, "not bad".

10/14/09 - Wednesday

Shirt: Ralph Lauren / Tie: Hardy Amies / Belt: GAP / Pants: Claiborne



Don't know why but this outfit has a little bit of coastal Connecticut in it. May be due to the nautical undertones.

Meh.

Whatever it was, my initial skepticism towards this outfit was erased after actually trying it on.








George Washington Bridge by night...

Guest Feature - CSI New York

Suit: Barney's New York / Shirt: Charles Tyrwhitt / Tie: Thomas Pink / French cuffs: Thomas Pink



Featured here is a outfit worn by a man affectionately called Mr. CSI here at work. If you even attempt to try and pull shenanigans in the office, best believe he will be on to your act faster than you can say "I thought I was sending it to my personal email account".

Office mates were especially grateful for this aesthetically pleasing outfit he wore today, as it stood out in the sea of black/charcoal suits.

More importantly, it helped announce his arrival from far away. If you weren't able to shut down whatever you are doing in the extra 6 seconds you have been afforded, you deserved to be caught by Mr. CSI.




"Is there something you would like to show me, Chester?"

10/13/09 - Tuesday

Shirt: Chaps / Tie: DKNY / Belt: GAP / Pants: Express



This outfit is so midtown, NY.

Found yet another outfit to pair this tie with.

10/12/09 - Monday

Shirt: Calvin Klein / Tie: Jos A Bank / Vest: Club Room / Belt: GAP / Pants: Calvin Klein



Threw a vest into the mix today.

Personal preference, but I generally like to have the vest color contrast the outfit.




10/09/09 - Friday

Pullover: Express / Shirt: La Chemise Club / Belt: GAP / Pants: Michael Brandon




Casual Friday. Leaned a bit towards the formal side of things today.



All blek everything, sans the shirt

Shirt: Arrow / Tie: Jos A Bank / Belt: GAP / Pants: Perry Ellis Portfolio



Had to break out the pullover, it's getting quite chilly these days.





Going one-on-fifty against NYC cabbies. I won.

10/07/09 - Wednesday

Shirt: Chaps / Tie: Old Navy / Belt: GAP / Pants: Calvin Klein



Love this tie, although I think it looks better paired with this shirt.
