It’s a beautiful sunny day

CW = Critiques welcome! Another crazy day! Lots of planning for the big expansion, so it's fun stuff! Client, vendor, internal, and recruitment meetings today. The tie is a great one I often forget I own. Seeing it camera (still and video) makes me realize how the shading forms into a nearly stripped tie pattern. Outfit SUIT — Ralph Lauren Light Brown (SJ‑010 & SL‑019) This light‑brown RL suit brings a refined, confident presence with warm tones that project stability and approachability. The wool drapes cleanly and keeps you sharp through VCs, hallway conversations, or internal leadership moments. SHIRT — Charles Tyrwhitt White Twill, Point Collar, French Cuff (DS‑040): The white twill shirt adds a crisp, authoritative foundation that balances the warm suit. The point collar gives a streamlined vertical line that works perfectly with today’s tie and the Half‑Windsor knot. UNDERSHIRT — True Classic White (US‑001): This white undershirt disappears under the twill and keeps you cool and comfortable throughout the day. Ideal for a 69°F high while maintaining a clean silhouette. TIE — Kenneth Cole Green & Tan Micro‑Square (NT‑003): The green introduces a cool contrast to the warm suit, while the tan pattern ties everything together. Finished with a Half‑Windsor for a balanced, structured look that pairs well with the point collar. POCKET SQUARE — Light Tan Silk/Wool (PS‑002): A subtle light‑tan square adds sophistication without competing with the tie. The Presidential TV fold keeps everything clean, professional, and business‑formal. CUFFLINKS — Gold Rectangle / Woven Gold (CL‑011): Warm gold tones elevate the light‑brown suit and pair effortlessly with the gold accents on today’s watch. The rectangular shape reinforces clean lines and a composed executive look. Tie Bar — TA‑003 (Gold Plain Bar): A minimalist gold tie bar with clean horizontal lines that adds a precise touch of structure without drawing attention away from the tie’s green‑and‑tan pattern. Its polished gold finish perfectly echoes the gold tones of today’s cufflinks and watch markers, reinforcing a unified metallic story while maintaining true business‑formal restraint.

Tonight’s service was held in what is now called the Historic Sanctuary, though it was the regular sanctuary when we first started.attending here and is where we were married. Tonight’s.outfit includes a western style jacket and a purple wild rag tied into a bow. The hat is a Silverbelly Jameson from Stetson. And the hat wea only worn for the photo session. Also, note that the robe on the statue of Jesus is pink. At one time pink was associated with masculinity and blue with feminine unlike our modern times.

No suit today, I am in the office again to catch up with the ANZ Big and Growth Manager, that is a step down from the last group I met, but was set up by the CEO and Manager of Growth. I also had a hair cut and cutthroat razor shave yesterday at my barbers, I really enjoyed that, and it was also why there was the extra stubble in yesterdays post. Todays outfit consists of M.J. Bale Brera “Loro Piana” Jacket in Denim Blue. This Jacket has been woven in italy by the loro piana textile mill from a luxe trilogy of fine wool, silk and linen. M.J.

Instead of a traditional dive timer bezel, Islander have included a bi-directional dual time bezel, which is a great way to track a second time zone. The insert is ceramic, so it resists scratching. Telling the time is a snap with syringe style hands with accented color tips.

It’s an easy Sunday
