Hey guys can you give me some ideas for an outfit for valentine's day!! I'm trying to go for my grown men look this year!

My local Dillard's had an extra 30% off Final Sale items until 9 last night. I picked up 2 Ralph Lauren dress shirts for $28 each (an OK deal, I've seen cheaper, but 80% off is 80% off) and a fall jacket that's fleece-lined for $60. The total was around $120, which I considered pretty good for a $165 jacket and $170 worth of shirts.

I am not a fan of longwings (the brogueing goes all the way to the back of the shoe) however, i know a lot of people who LOVE them, so i think its more a personal preference. They are a very servicable shoe ... but nothing spectacular. So my opinion will be based more on the price than anything else.

Still Chilly in the A:

Busting out with the 3-piece suit lately, it is 3-piece suit week?

And Jack Purcell brigning out the boat shoe for the spring/summer 2010.

I ordered the Black Chelsea Boots. I'm tempted to pick up a pair of the leather stitched loafers but I want to first check out the quality and fitting of my boots when they arrive.

Thanks for the input, I'm still new to this so could you show me some wingtips where the brogueing doesn't go all the way to the back of the shoe

I'm planning to go to a wedding this March is there a certain color to wear for a winter wedding?  Its a toss up between a khaki, navy or grey let me know guys

Sample of wingtip without the brogue going around.

As for a winter wedding, a khaki suit might not be suited especially if the reception leads up to the evening.

I see khaki suit as more of a spring/summer color, I think you'd be better with a navy or charcoal suit.

For March though, depending where you are located, I think a khaki suit is acceptable, the way the weather have been going I wouldn't consider March a winter wedding.

Thanks a lot RFX, I can see the difference now about the wingtips. Also its going to be in NYC so I'll just get a navy or charcoal suit

Good thing H & M just got a new stock of Suits too

 

[rfx45]

Oh so your in NYC so your choices are unlimited.
Check out Uniqlo too, I think the new +J line is coming out with a few new items soon.

saw some bruno magli slip on loafers at marshalls for $129. tag says reg price is 250. can't verify, since i don't know the model. said lironep and m03051 on the box but googling those terms doesn't come up with anything.

yeah - the cold weather kinda got me going, and then i said why not. unfortunately it would end tomorrow, since Friday is jeans day at work ... i would look like a tool rolling in in a 3 piece. maybe i can find a 3 piece denim suit ...

the jack purcell's are 

 i can see myself freaking out the orange/navy/green with a rugby polo.

From the past three days.

some nice looks there. i think you're headed in the right direction with the elements i see. keep evolving and filling in with staples ... and then investing in some nice add-ons and you'll be straight. 

Thanks for the tips niidawg. I'm not ready for your level yet lol, still have three years of law school before I begin to rock the three piece suites on a consistent basis, amazing wardrobe you have btw...

Check out Trickers. They make a similar pair of boots. About 150 pounds.
