My OOTN for the shenanigans of the evening. All black with my bordeaux sports coat and matching socks. Lincoln loafers from Thursday. Black and red silk pocket square. I must say, it’s been very disappointing seeing so many men wearing ripped up jeans and shirts here. Especially when their partners are dressed to impress. Fragrance of the evening is Oud For Greatness. A statement frag.

I want to say a huge thank you to @Antonio Cent today. Like many of you already have, I received my challenge coin in the mail today. I’m grateful for the lovely card and coin, but even more for what they represent. Being a member of this community. Being able to strive, to share, to learn and to grow together in this space has been a true gift over the last month! So here’s to all of you!

When I look around i see guys with their hands in their pockets. My father told me this was not allowed in the military, and I wonder if there may be good reason why. We civilians are trying to dress nice, but do hands in pockets take us down a notch? I don’t want to be judgy, but….

We’re relatively small, but we’re active! Great job guys!

I try to mix my blue and brown things this way for the first time: shoes : cognac chino: matt navy shirt: light blue and brown pattern overcoat: gray flat cap: mid gray briefcase:cognac Please let me know if you would swap colors. or introduce new!
