Gentlemen, today’s boardroom just got a Texas-sized upgrade: TomJames MTM gray suit, silk gold tie by Canali, and the Bulova Marine Star ticking like it’s late for a cattle drive—sharp enough to close deals and humble enough to two-step at happy hour. The leather valet tray holding my RMRS medallions and pocket square, Texas lapel pin, and matching cuff links says “I’ve got stories,” but this grin says “and I’m just getting started.” ...or just maybe the sun was in my eyes. 🤠💼✨

It’s Friday and what a week! Personally, I scored some great (and super affordable) new threads, plus a surprise collab offer on my Instagram. Who knew my photos had negotiation skills? On the work front, I’m inching closer to joining the Bids & Proposals team. Got a date with the Bid Manager at 11:30, then a chat with the Assistant CEO to pitch my master plan for winning new work. Fingers crossed they like my ideas (and my tie). Grateful for a brilliant week, now please excuse me while I celebrate with a celebratory cup of coffee and my new suspiciously cheap Jacket. Today’s Outfit Consists of; M.J. Bale Malone Linen Sports Jacket in Denim Charles Tyrwhitt Cutaway Collar Kensington Weave Shirt in Stone M.J. Bale McQueen Chino in Tobacco OTAA Oracabessa Knitted tie in Orange/Green/Yellow Oxford Brogue in Chocolate Anson Signature Strap in Chocolate on a Traditional Gunmetal buckle Bluey Socks in Navy SOTD - Versace Eros Flame WOTD - Citizen AW2400E

It’s been a short week but still glad it’s Friday.

The wife and I celebrate 10 years together today. The pictures are roughly ten years apart, you can see both our progress in bettering ourselves. No OOTD today so make it a good day.
