Inspiration: One pocket square, four ways – Amidé Hadelin “The Syndics”

Using a pocket square with darker colours like this one is surprisingly …

Inspiration: S/S20 at Spier and Mackay

When I received this new black grenadine fina tie from Aklasu, I wanted …

I went with off white cords, navy moleskin and this reverse stripe ocbd all from @spiermackay, finished off with my star chart cellarius square from @kent.wang. Can a tee under an ocbd under a sport coat work on your eyes? Let me know.

With wfh likely continuing for some time still, I've been slowly adding to the casual side of my closet. All @spiermackay here, including their five pocket cords in light beige that I just got back from having hemmed. Paired with the new navy sweatshirt. I took the size large, same as last version. Body fits similarly, though maybe a touch less trim. Increased sleeve length is appreciated. The fabric though. Different than last year's, and different than expected. When I first opened the box, it seemed to have a sheen. Very soft, almost silky. After a cold wash and flat dry, I tumbled in the drier with no heat. Softened right up like resulting in a soft texture more like the dry hand you'd expect from cotton. Still smooth, and very soft inside, but lost that "sheen" which is great. Looking forward to breaking it in some more.
