Day 37/ Cashmere Sportcoat for the WIN!

A few weeks ago Winter struck, and cottons, seer suckers, ginghams had to be put away. And that meant my only navy blazer, cotton/ linen, was put away. I had remarked to my dad (my ultimate style hero) that I needed a wool blazer to wear the other 2 season out of the year; I happened to find it yesterday. This is a cashmere navy sportcoat! It is really warm, and the fit is incredible off  the rack. I am so appreciative to whoever returned this piece online so that I could pick it up in our J Crew clearance factory center.

Day 34

Bitterly cold; gray and blue skies prevail.
Chances of rain, and after yesterday's downpour, I have not forgotten my trench or my duck boots.
This tweedy, herringbone suit is VERY warm. I had the pants tailored long ago, they may be due to go back in, with the jackey in tow. On a less rainy, mucky day I would def pair this suit with wingtip boots.

Day 19/ Traddy Warbucks and the Khaki monster.

Another day for duck boots. And a trench! I received my recent purchase from gilt, yesterday. Unfortunately, my wingtips from billy reid are too long.

Day 14

This is a look that I have been wearing since I was five years old. I think I have always had a navy blue blazer. In high school, where I attended Rabun Gap Nacoochee School, I had a double breasted blue blazer from Burberry London. It sounds glamourous but, this jacket had been acquired from my eldest sister's then boyfriend. I believe he may have left it laying around the house. Tragically, sometime around my senior year, I lost this jacket. A lovable detail about this jacket is that it has horn buttons instead of the typical golden ones (like that burberry jacket). It is a rainy mucky day, thus the duck boots.

Day 4/Rain

Out of the Office today for Energy Diploma Management training. Up early with the rain and the cold. Using a GQ concept of a one off vest. It is not part of a three piece suit. It was my father's, like much of my clothing. Using the polaroid option of FX for my Droid. It may not work out. I've always had a pair of duck boots, ever since I was a little boy.
