Red, White and Blue


Red, white and blue felt appropriate a few days ago for Veterans Day (Remembrance Day or Armistice Day outside the United States). As I dressed, the combination felt like it might be too common, but I saw no-one else wearing anything similar.

Chestnut Edward Green semi-brogues, cream flannel trousers by Salvatore Ambrosi and a University of Pennsylvania necktie that is awfully similar to that of the Brigade of Guards, worn with a navy blazer. Light gray birdseye socks coordinate with a gray and cream linen pocket square.

Shoes that match the jacket buttons. Nice!

Handsome ensemble, Will! And it’s nice to see a man wearing a tie that belongs to him.

“but I saw no-one else wearing anything similar.” Dare say you saw many in a jacket at all.

beautiful, i really like this one. striking look, i don't like the socks which are very important if one sits down.
but the rest looks spectacular, just need some Pinton sunglasses to go out.

I like the socks! Very well played sir. My hat is off to you for showing the younger chaps how it's done.
