We headed out to out Jazz Evening and also had dinner. Was a very nice night. Nicole wore a Dreess I got her for Christmas and I went with the outfit I showed last night but didn’t wear the hat at Nicoles request. We sat next to another couple at the concert and they mentioned that it was nice to see people dressed well to go out, then as we were leaving a pair of younger males said that “we made them feel underdressed”. Nicole took this as a snide remark, but I just replied with a ‘Thankyou kindly fellas” and just kept walking. I did get a snippet of one of the Louis Armstrong songs and one from Frank Sinatra. The music was amazing, the singing did get better as the evening progressed, mind you when you are competing with what people think about when those to Jazz legends are mentioned you are really up against it. On a plus, Nicole did ask if I know what else was played there, I showed her the app and she was all excited about being to go out and dress up. Hope you all have an amazing Saturday, I am about to go to bed 🥱

Hi all. I am nearing the point where shorts are just not something I prefer to wear. I am blessed with good legs, I live in an area where shorts are both ideal for warm summer days and socially acceptable in way too many areas. I have four pairs of Chinos. They serve their part but are a bit bland when it’s that or jeans. Chinos are better than jeans on warm days, so that got me thinking about other casual pants for warm weather. So, I have two questions. First, if anyone has now or previously had casual linen pants, how well do they work for warm days. Second, does anyone have a brand they recommend? Many thanks!

This is exactly how you want to approach first-day-of-spring dressing in San Antonio—light, breathable, and quietly confident without trying too hard. My pale blue Peter Milar linen shirt reads cool against the rising heat, while the khaki trousers anchor the look with a classic, dependable structure. The Allen Edmund dark brown suede horsebit loafers introduce texture and depth, giving the outfit a refined, coastal sensibility that feels intentional rather than seasonal cliché. Paired with the gold-toned watch and the aquatic backbone of Acqua di Giò Profondo, the overall impression is relaxed authority—someone who understands both climate and composition.

With or without lapels, narrow or wide shoulders — four designs total. Which ones look the most attractive (as in "sexy") on me? Which ones are to be avoided?
