The suede shoes are a pretty good sign that he doesn't expect to unfurl his umbrella, but our brown suited man in Nashville is well prepared for anything the weather might bring. His palette is relatively informal, befitting a smaller city with plenty of greenery. There is pattern going on, but neither too many nor too similar in scale. The 3 roll 2 jacket has a ticket pocket to set it apart from the ordinary, if such a word could ever be applied to that check. And though he has obviously spent some time thinking about his clothes, the green hat and red scarf keep the combination from over-coordination.
Truly, a man in style.

Who drew that picture Will?
It's a photo that has been softened to have the feeling of an illustration.
Brilliant.
The editing of the photo is very clever; gives it the vibe of an old Esquire picture. I don't think the fellow would appear out of place there either.
The precise shade/hue of brown he has in his suit is well-chosen to echo the warm undertones of his skin-tone too. This is clearly a man who thinks carefully about clothes, and with experience as to which colours flatter him. A very educational image, thank you!
I like this fellow's style. Very well turned out. Creative and nuanced.
Bravo!! Keep up the excellent posts. You truly scintillate!
I also thought it was a drawing at first. Truly an elegant man!
Awsome.
Who is that guy?

Interesting. The small version of the picture, seen from a distance, appears to show a man in an ordinary suit. The full size version shows wonderful details that set the man's attire apart from the ordinary.
This guy is a class act. While he obviously puts thought into his clothes, its also clear that style comes naturally to him.
I like the hat. It's very nice.
I like the scarf. It's a wonderful accent piece.
I'm not fond of orange, so I'm not keen on the rest of the outfit.
Still, it's refreshing to see someone who clearly cares about what he wears, and tries to look good, even if his efforts don't comport with my sartorial standards (it should go without saying that I'm the only one who should try to live up to those, but given the ease of miscommunication on-line, I thought I'd make that clear). I consider this more an "inspirational" than "instructive" shot.
Oh, and the image processing is great.
Hey, my 'hat' is off to that guy. 'Ticket pocket'...So that's what that is; dang. I never knew. I have to tell you, I am a 'plaid' guy too, but I don't think I pull it off vis-a-vis the photo, that well.
