Outfit of the Day – 09 March 2015

Monday – 09 March 2015
I should probably post a look today’s outfit while it’s still “today.”

This morning, I had an idea of what I wanted to wear, but I wasn’t sure on the details. I knew that it would be a dress shirt and slacks, but I wasn’t completely sold on the idea of a sweater… let alone, which sweater I wanted to put into the rotation.

Inspiration struck a few minutes later. This is what I came up with:

 

You work in IT? Who says you can’t look good while doing it?

And a closer look…

 

Details of the day.
Details of the day.

Breaking down this outfit:

  • Vest: Permit Platinum – I’ve owned this vest for… let’s conservatively say “ten years.” It’s not something that I wear often, though it does see occasional wear under a suit jacket. And, once in a while, it gets to be the standout feature.
  • Shirt: Geoffrey Beene white spread-collar shirt with French cuffs.
  • Tie: Geoffrey Beene black/grey/purple paisley
  • Cufflinks: Custom-made from LEGO tiles. I had originally purchased them as groomsmen’s gifts for my wedding. They add a bit of flair and fun to the outfit.
  • Slacks: Van Heusen grey herringbone trousers.
