A Trad "What are you Wearing"

[Vecchio Vespa]

Back in the office on a dreary, foggy morning with rain potentially. I wanted to wear my Blucher mocs but they didn’t do so hot the last time it rained. No suede today either. I guess I need to buy some loafers!

If you are in the market for loafers I heartily endorse the Alden chromexcel LHS. I cruised the Shoemart Alden factory seconds until a pair popped up in my size, saving about $200! Remember the Van last runs about a half size small. The CXL LHS were comfortable out of the box. They are unlined.

Most of the items are J Press (blazer, OCBD, trousers). Tie is Robert Jensen and bluchers, Alden.

It’s going to be another hot week! I might need more summer jackets.

I am not sure about this outfit. Seems a little muted. And I don’t know if there’s enough contrast between shirt and jacket. I didn’t realize how many light blue shirts I had until I bought this jacket.

I am in the same boat with this heat and need some more summer jackets. I broke out my 100% linen from J Press today, with lightweight Samuelsohn trousers. OCBD from BB, tie from Sam Hober, loafers from Alden.

Chrome tanned chukkas are almost always a good choice for the feet on a dreary, potentially wet day.

I am by no means an expert (I did not stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night), but I think the outfit looks fine. Adding a navy, grenadine tie would be the icing on the cake.

Thank you for the kind words.

Thanks, here's another couple recent ones. Ignore the weeds on the patio, all the damned rain this summer has made it impossible to get rid of them. He's 7 months and about 70 lbs. Thinking he'll top out around 85 or so.

I promise you, the Van last runs a half size BIG. I am a 9.5 in the Alden full-strap and tassel loafers, but a 9 all day in the LHS.

With a tweak here or there, you could have pulled that outfit out of my closet. We dress incredibly similarly.

And welcome to AAAC.

FF, too funny. Good taste!

I tend to stay more on the casual side. Chinos and tweed, mostly.

My Orient bambino will always be #1 in my heart! First automatic I bought.

We went from 90 on Sunday to 55 today. I’m not complaining as it gave me a reason to try out my new OCBD.
