Gentlemen, Hope you had a great week and you’re getting ready for the Weekend. Here are some of my OOTD, from denim to overcoat and 1/4 zip sweaters, I have wore over the past weeks to compensate my absent. Thank you and happy Friday!

Dear all, as in Germany it gets warmer and spring is approaching, I can go out without a jacket/overjacket/coat etc. and just wear a pullover and chinos. However, if I have to keep my keys, business card box, wallet etc. in my chino pockets, I look like a stuffed turkey ... and it kinda ruins my visuals. Do you have any alternatives, stylish ideas how to avoid this issue? 😁

Critiques welcome! Especially on the use of corduroys with a Winchester... Busy Friday in the office, but looking forward to a relaxing weekend at home. It's the first one with no baseball tournament for my 13-year old in a month. Time to catch up on the business expansion plans and any other projects running behind. Maybe I'll try another shoe polishing this weekend. Outfit • Jacket — DOJ‑005 (Ralph Lauren): A dark‑brown tweed blazer in a cashmere–wool blend that brings depth, warmth, and unmistakable texture to the core of the ensemble. Slight roping in the shoulders and a clean silhouette keep it elevated enough for internal VC leadership days, while the tweed surface adds quiet visual interest on camera. • Shirt — DS‑034 (Savile Row Company): A Winchester Prince of Wales check shirt with crisp white collar and French cuffs, balancing heritage British patterning with unmistakable business formality. The navy POW body pairs beautifully with the earth‑tones of the jacket and trousers, producing a sharp and intentional on‑screen presence. • Undershirt — US‑022 (Sene): A Peruvian Pima cotton MTM undershirt that stays invisible while maintaining exceptional comfort throughout the day. It provides clean drape under the structured dress shirt, ensuring no extra bulk under the French cuffs or collar. • Trousers — PN‑013 (Fort Belvedere): Deep‑navy heavyweight corduroy with rich vertical texture that anchors the outfit with gravitas. The substantial 705 g/m² fabric reads as refined on camera and harmonizes with the tweed jacket without overwhelming the look. • Tie — NT‑040 (Nordstrom): A taupe‑brown geometric silk tie with small‑scale patterning that offers subtle complexity while keeping a firmly business‑appropriate tone. Tied in a clean Half‑Windsor, it frames the white collar beautifully and complements both the brown jacket and navy trousers. • Pocket Square — PS‑017 (Fort Belvedere): A brown‑and‑blue paisley silk pocket square that adds elegant visual depth and ties together the jacket’s earth tone with the navy elements of the outfit. Its deliberate use of warm brown and cool blue continues the ensemble’s color story while maintaining a business‑appropriate level of expression.
