Starting the week off a bit differently than planned! I was busy doing recurrent training this weekend, and was supposed to travel home last night. But the weather here was a bit less than hospitable 😢So I decided to stay. “Better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air, than in the air wishing you were on the ground!!” But that in turn means 2 extra nights, as the weather at home is also miserable through tonight, but hopefully will clear out tonight so I can catch up to my week, which means no chance to get home, but head directly to a trade show my team is setting up tomorrow. Oh well! This is what makes life interesting!! I LOVE Monday’s so I’m getting it done while working remote. Still dressing as if I were in the office!! OOTD: Blue/Green/Tan Tattersal Navy Kahki’s Green Ribbed OTC Dress Socks Brown, Derby’s “Speedy” Trying out the Creed - Centaurus today. Wishing you all a wonderful Monday!!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day! While I am not religious, I am absolutely part Irish. Of course, so are my sons. Oddly, the only one in the house who eats corned-beef hash is my Asian wife. That's a tale for another day. Have fun, but remember that there are more drunk drivers on the road today than any other day, except after New Year's Eve. Be careful out there! • Shirt — DS-010: A crisp white Charles Tyrwhitt French‑cuff dress shirt with a spread collar and substantial twill weave. The structure and opacity provide an excellent foundation for bolder accessories while maintaining executive formality. • Undershirt — US-003: A heavyweight white Pro Club cotton crew undershirt that ensures full opacity and all‑day comfort. Its robust construction keeps the dress shirt cleanly draped and wrinkle‑free. • Trousers — PN-012: Chocolate brown Fort Belvedere corduroy trousers with a classic fit and substantial weight. The texture adds depth and seasonal richness while remaining polished enough for elevated business casual environments. • Jacket — DOJ-009: An Italian Missoni odd jacket in olive and earth tones. The wool fabric, padded shoulders, and expressive pattern introduce artistic confidence while harmonizing beautifully with the corduroys and tie. • Tie — NT-045: Silvio Fiorello “Mandala of the Universe” silk tie featuring forest green, rust, malachite, and cream tones. A statement piece that adds visual energy and intellectual flair without overwhelming the ensemble. • Belt — B-015: A chocolate suede belt with a silver buckle that ties together the trousers and footwear seamlessly. The suede texture softens the formality while maintaining cohesion. • Shoes — DSh-010: Dark brown suede Cobbler Union Chelsea boots. Goodyear‑welted and elegantly shaped, they provide a refined yet relaxed counterbalance to the tailored upper layers. • Socks — DSo-046: Golden Toe dress socks in light brown with dark brown static patterning. Subtle visual interest while staying firmly within the outfit’s earthy palette.

Another day and some more fun trying different elements on an outfit. I went with the Washed Cherry colour as a start and built from there, wasn’t sure the short would work, however I think this came together well. Outfit consists of: M.J.
