CW = critiques welcome! Lots going on today including several vendor meetings. The real fun is tonight when my eldest son has his final banquet for track and field during high school. He's taken home rookie of the year and 2 MVPs, so we are hoping for the sweep this year! Use a suit to allow me to take off the jacket as needed. However, I am also wearing sleeve garters for the first time (and the one pick shows it's still a learning process!). Finally, every now and then I put in CPW metrics for the wardrobe items used and I've got those here today. Some area excellent and some need work, but Tuesdays always ensure the app selects from 1-5 items with the worst CPW to help spread the use around my wardrobe. • Suit — SJ-013, SL-022 (Mantoni) | CPW: $44.00 + $24.83 = $68.83. A light gray Mantoni windowpane suit in lightweight airy wool, featuring a bold pattern scale with navy and light-blue paneling. The jacket offers slight padding at the shoulders, a notched lapel, and a clean 80% lining. The matching trousers feature high-rise construction with belt and suspender anchors, delivering a modern business-classic silhouette that's breathable enough for late-spring weather while maintaining unmistakable formality. • Shirt — DS-040 (Charles Tyrwhitt) | CPW: $7.11. A CT slim-fit Non-Iron Twill dress shirt in crisp white with French cuffs. Constructed from 2-ply cotton with a classic point collar and rounded French cuffs, this shirt provides the perfect canvas for a patterned tie. The adjustable French cuffs allow for precise cufflink placement, while the soft hand and non-iron finish ensure all-day sharpness. • Undershirt — US-003 (Pro Club) | CPW: $0.49. A heavyweight white cotton crew-neck undershirt from Pro Club. The medium-to-heavy drape ensures no show-through under the opaque twill dress shirt while providing solid moisture absorption throughout the workday. • Tie — NT-047 (Charles Tyrwhitt) | CPW: $32.50. A pink silk necktie with dark pink accents and navy polka dots, finished with a hand-finished 3-fold construction. At 3.25" width and 58.5" length, it pairs beautifully with the gray windowpane suit, adding a pop of color while maintaining business-formal decorum. The pattern scale creates visual interest without overwhelming the suit's bold windowpane.

Another WFH day with a day of rain and drizzle outside. The Jacket will come in super handy whilst I sit at hoe without the heating to save some money on Electricity.
