Yes, I did run a photo of the same tie yesterday but it is here presented in context, that being clothing worn for travel from country to city.
The jacket is one that I keep telling myself should be retired but I like the cloth, an old suiting tweed from the long defunct Hunters of Brora, too much. The charcoal in the twill coordinates with the black border of the paisleys printed on the necktie and the burgundy on said tie somehow manages to avoid overtly clashing with the orange of the wool square. Finally, the shirt collar is pinned, an embellishment that I think elegant so long as it is kept away from most offices.

Why would you retire the jacket? Is it just worn out or are there style issues?
Every once in a while you get something that doesn't quite work. The cut and fit of this jacket falls into that category.
Perhaps it would have worked had it been a suit. Nice combo anyway!
It is a suit.
Gorgeous- this is one of my favorite combos you've put up. I have a similar tie, and have never found quite the right suit or odd-jacket to pair it with; now I have something to strive for!
Great look. But why do you think that collar pins are inappropriate office wear?
