Tolerance isn't always noble. Give it to the wrong people... ...and they'll turn it into your grave. That includes yourself. Quit tolerating bullshit. In your relationships... In your standards... In your health... In your finances... In anything. Tolerating anything less than excellence is the same thing as saying "yes" to mediocrity. Never forget that. ~ Andy Frisella

Critiques welcome! It's been three very hectic days lately, and thus no ability to post the OOTDs. Still busy, but got most of this done last night. I am wearing suspenders for the first time since high school prom... which was a bit ago! I am loving them. Since they are Kirby Allison made in England, would I therefore call then braces or do I need to be British to use that lexicon? Today's outfit • Suit — SJ‑013, SL‑022 (Mantoni): A light‑gray Mantoni windowpane suit in breathable lightweight wool, with a crisp navy–light‑blue pane that plays exceptionally well on camera. High‑rise trousers with brace buttons create a clean, elongated line when paired with suspenders. • Shirt — DS‑040 (Charles Tyrwhitt): A non‑iron white twill dress shirt with French cuffs and a classic point collar—sleek, structured, and perfect for business‑formal VC presence. The smooth twill and slightly fitted cut provide a modern, polished foundation beneath the suit. • Undershirt — US‑002 (Ralph Lauren): A soft white cotton undershirt that remains invisible under DS‑040’s opaque twill. Comfortable for all‑day wear and ideal for maintaining a sharp neckline on video. • Tie — NT‑023 (Fort Belvedere): A light‑blue and navy Cri de la Soie mottled silk knit tie from Fort Belvedere, woven in the distinctive crunchy Swiss silk that gives the blade its spring, texture, and cool visual depth. The square‑end silhouette and 2.5" width create a modern, continental profile that works beautifully with business‑casual tailoring and lightly patterned shirts. • Suspenders — SB‑001 (Kirby Allison): Navy silk braces with subtle white dots and black leather loops, creating a harmonious dialogue with the tie’s pattern. They deliver a refined, vertical silhouette and eliminate the break created by a belt. • Pocket Square — PS‑009 (Fort Belvedere): White linen with a blue X‑stitch border, folded cleanly in a crisp TV fold. The restrained detailing keeps the focus on your face during VC meetings while adding a subtle note of elegance.
