It's just good practice to mix patterns on the weekend, especially gray days without quite enough light to photograph well. Here, a green broken herringbone tweed is overchecked in red, orange and blue. It's combined with a pink and blue checked shirt worn pinned, a burgundy on brown club necktie, and a silk paisley pocket square with a blue ground.
Tweed dressing and pattern mixing go hand in hand. And the act of working off one's urges for complex combinations makes work day dressing in simpler patterns that much easier to accomplish.

perhaps a sharper version?
Will,
The collar pin is really difficult to see in that photo, but it almost appears that it's going through the tie. Is that proper? I always pin my collar just under the tie.
It really is a terrible photo but the pin is under the tie.
Nice. Club color is a welcomed rarity.
While I may never understand the inclination towards three-button suits with the soft roll, I must say today you've chosen an exceptionally gorgeous palette.

Superb shirt pattern. Could I ask who made the shirt?
Thanks!
