What's divisive about it? I think the colors and patterns all work really well together, and I think it's creative. It's pretty awesome, actually. Some people just aren't liking the look in general? Or they are thinking the pieces don't work together?

Thanks for the kind words. The chief complaint is that it's too busy, which I can understand and, depending on my mood, agree with entirely. Of course, it's meant to be a fun combo, so I'm not surprised it's not to everyone's taste. A little more flamboyant than my usual stuff, but nice for a change.

I like the Friday-tie stance you've taken according to your blogg. Do you wear dress shoes or are you forced to wear something "sensible"?

Thank you for your support..

I also wear dress shoes and a suit (or pants and blazer) when travelling to and from work and also when going to lunch. At the hospital it is unfortunately not practical to wear dress shoes so I wear dark "clogs"..

Are you Swedish? If not maybe you don't know how unusual it is for a doctor to dress up a bit here.. Almost everybody wear hideous scrubs all day long! So I am really quite a rebel..

I'm Swedish so I fully support your rebellious act since since I've seen what is usually worn at the hospitals

In contrast I'm happy that my wife changes her clothes at work: she is a veterinary surgeon at an animal hospital for dogs and cats. Last week she had to leave the room to throw up, not because of how the dog smelled but the dog owner

Hottest day of the year. So of course, by someone's perverse sense of humour, I had to go into the muggiest place in the UK - London - for a conference and being a national thing, I figured I ought to look presentable so no linens, etc; just lightweight wool. Despite being a DB, this suit usually manages the heat pretty well because of its lightness. Today it struggled a bit and I wilted as the day progressed.... I shouldn't have bothered really - only a small minority (say 10-20%) bothered to dress reasonably well, and I left not long after lunch anyway.

Thanks - it wasn't looking quite so sharp by the end of the hot day!

Well those thing do happen and at then the scrubs aren't such a bad idea.. As long as you change back to something nicer afterwards!

i don't like to bring my nice clothing to work. i wear white or light-blue 15 dollar wal-mart shirts and "city of london" ties, stuff i can chuck on a monthly basis. last thing i want to do is bring MRSA or VRE home.

. . . common sense, meteorology, and fatigue.

After several days of polo shirts and chinos, I have dressed up today, ostensibly because I've got a museum members' viewing to attend this evening, but more just because a strict diet of casual clothes makes for a very comfortable but boring sartorial existence. This is despite the fact that I've gotten less than a good night's sleep - the side effect of strenuous aerobic stimulation too late the previous evening (good sleep, but too little of it).

Even though it is expected to reach the mid-80'sF/around 30C today, here's today's fairly impractical ensemble.

Solid black tropical weight wool six-button D/B suit (Polo, via Syms, with a side trip to the local tailors to re-fit after a recent weight loss)

Lavender horizontally pencil-striped shirt, with white spread collar and white double cuffs, slim-fit (BB)

Deep purple silk jacquard tie, large-scale graph pattern in silver and lighter shades of purple (BB)

Octagonal sterling silver cufflinks, double-sided with chain, black enamel faces, set in the center with small CZ's (Tyrwhitt)

Black high-gloss finish belt, decorative channelling and blind perforations (Trafalgar, via Syms)

White cotton pocket handkerchief, folded into three points, jacket breast pocket

Black patterned OTC socks (Polo, via Syms, most likely)

Black wholecut plaintoe balmorals, broguing on the toe caps (Bexley, Paris)

Floris Cefiro (a cologne light enough for summer, long-lasting enough to survive at least two bouts of subway travel)

Now, if I could just wake up . . .
