Suit: Jos A Bank / Shirt: Merona / Tie: DKNY / Belt: -




Got the shirt from Target, for under $20.

Their work-wear selection varies by store but the prices are usually pretty attractive.

Shirt: La Chemise Club / Tie: DKNY / Pants: Calvin Klein



Noticed that I have paired this tie almost exclusively with white shirts as of late.

Will have to become more liberal with the combinations...

Shirt: Van Heusen / Tie: DKNY / Belt: Blek / Pants: Express


"Dr. Mango to the rescue, excuse me!"


Decent outfit, although I think the pants would pair up better with slim ties/fitted shirts.

This outfit is so midtown, NY.

Found yet another outfit to pair this tie with.

Suit: Jos A Bank Suit / Shirt: Jos A Bank/ Tie: DKNY / Belt: GAP




As you can see I decided to sport your typical, laid-back Casual Friday attire today...

In all seriousness, its nice to have a legitimate reason to wear a suit in Southern California. Just like rain showers, such occurrences don't happen very often. Even people in church look at you funny if you stroll down the aisle sporting a suit in lieu of your typical guayabera and linen pants combo.









* Here's a tip for you your corporate high achievers out there: Most men's fashion "gurus" insist on not buttoning the bottom button on a suit/waistcoat... Not sure what to do? Keep the buttons undone, deftly take off your jacket as you enter the room, roll up your sleeves, and start typing with the passion.

Although most of this outfit was sourced (ok no more business-speak) at the GAP it actually looks like a 'fit you would find on an Express mannequin. Don't like the slacks too much as they are on the large side (34 waist). Not surprisingly, I never forget to wear a belt with these pants.






Ok, this pose can mean only 1 of four things in corporate America:



a) On a mission in transition to the restroom after sampling a co-worker's left over chili.
b) Realizing that you forgot to activate your screen saver after doing some questionable online shopping
c) Finding out the new intern has arrived. And is single.
d) Payday

Shirt: Bruno / Tie: DKNY / Belt: GAP / Pants: Dockers Collection



The DKNY tie came off of the bench and provided another solid performance. This tie is turning out to be solid role player. And to think I picked it off of waivers (i.e. Ross) for less than $10...

Solid outfit. Love the shirt. The pants fit great AND are also comfortable. Imagine that. Brought back the tie. When I first bought it I didn't envision it being an "everyday" tie. I still don't but it is definitely more versatile than I initially gave it credit for.

Shirt: BCBG//Attitude / Tie: DKNY / Belt: GAP / Pants: Michael Brandon



The pictures don't do this setup justice. For one, the little fluer de lis logos on the tie are actually purple (in the photos they came out looking light blueish or lavender, depending on your degree of color blindness).
Anyway, the setup was created somewhat out of necessity, as there were only so many ties/pants in my clothing arsenal that would work with the "busy" shirt. I therefore had to base the applicable tie/pair of slacks off of the shirt. This may be something to think about for those relatively new to the corporate dressing game. Some people can compile entire outfits in their head, others need to build their outfits in stages in their head, yet others need to actually throw on the clothes before they can make a decision on whether the outfit is a "go." I don't really have a set method, I have utilized all 3 approaches before.

That said I like how it all come together and will definitely wear this outfit again in the future.
