HAGWE all!
My apologies for the repeated posts in this thread but I just came across this update! I'm really glad your baby is doing better Ken! Please keep me updated with the latest news and in the meantime do take care of her like your wife and yourself always do!

[QUOTE=FeelingTheBlues;3607482]Beautiful shirt and I'm not even talking about that impressive tie! I love the colors on it!

Let's go back in time guys, here's what I wore on Friday (I couldn't post it earlier because I need to go back to Montreal on those days so it's hard for me to log on TRF after school, still wanted to share this with you guys). A shirt I found a few months ago, I quite like the pattern and it's really comfortable.

I hope you like it! I kind of like the style


Thanks Carl, in my middle aged years I'm down to only a handful of weaknesses. Fine timepieces, single malt scotch, nice shirts, nice ties, vintage cuff links, and unique art (well, that's the major weaknesses anyway). I had many, many more 25 years ago though!! Love your shirt, but can't tell what that timepiece is...

Thank you John! The watch is a vintage Chronographe Suisse, my cellphone takes horrible pictures but I'll take better ones with my camera from now on, here's a close-up of my watch sans leather band.

Thanks Shannon and already back into the office routine big time .....Espana just a distant memory .......

I see from your previous post that you're not worried about getting your hands dirty either and are mucking in with the decorating....... All of my recent property projects have been overseas so I don't get to help much these days but used to love getting involved.... It's always quite a transformation when the walls are painted....

The little lady's an interior designer and was over in a town called Lodz in Poland this weekend checking on some recent (non watch) acquisitions that have been curtailing my watch buying fund some what.... It's an old clothing manufacturing city and it's now possible to buy up some of those old loft style apartments to convert ......

So the "sensible" me is saying no new watches until they're all sorted and rented out

Steve - hey now...great outfit there my friend. Gotta love the stripes and matching...well done!!!

Also humbly glad to see that you sport a TT watch as well...not too many people seem to find them appealing (based on a very superficial scan of some threads), but it looks great on you.

Looking great all!!! This is me today...cooler weather now, so having to wear jackets and light scarves...already missing the summer

Good evening guys!

I went shopping before heading back home today, I just wanted two more pairs of jeans and a few smaller plain t-shirts to wear from times to times and I also got the chance to buy myself another belt (a tad thicker, as opposed to the regulat thin ones I usually wear). Here are pictures of what I was wearing today (with the new belt though).





Chronographe Suisse on the wrist today, here's my first post-service-hand-in-pocket picture!

Well to be honest I think the old saying still counts a man is defined by the watch he wears and the shoes he wears the attire doesn't matter does it? Seen as all the guys with their time pieces being flexed in the above pics must all have deep pockets and one fundamental love which is a FINE ROLEX everyone looks cool needless to say!!!!!

You know what Steven, I saw your post earlier this morning and couldn't help but notice that your color palette was just insane! I don't know if you own or have read the book dressing the man by Alan J. Flusser, however, you have mastered the art of pattering! Just crazy styles! Wow man!

Thumbs up to the ensemble and to that GOLD Omega!



Kept it fairly basic in attire and timepiece... My favorite blazer though!

Hope everyone had a great day! Shake and Bake!









There goes that blazer with Charles Tyrwhitt CEO Nick Wheeler and my tailor Mahesh!



Yet again this time with Audemars CEO Francois!

Great pictures yourself uncle! Say hi to François for me!
You got it nephew! I will tell Francois next time I see him or email him that Carl aka Feeling the Blues said hello and to keep up the good work!

I hope to travel to Spain in the next few years I have never been, my husband has visited several times for business and says I would really like it. I am definitely a summer kind of gal, I love the warm weather and beach etc....but learning to adjust to the NorthEast....hmmmm... I never owned a down "puffer" coat before, but I practically live in one Dec-March up here.

I do like to get involved with the home projects, much to my contractors' dismay our kitchen is already behind schedule, and waiting on demo of the bathroom. These guys are a different breed I am almost finished painting, just the master bedroom and some trims in the basement. I think I will reward myself with a LONG massage after completion

Looking forward to more of your new shirts

Namor, The H shoes are on a reseller site, Fashionphile. They sell authentic; size 40 and $695 if you are interested ;) Yes, if you have any recommendations for a bistro for dinner one night. Looking for something with good wine, maybe open air or outdoor seating and NOT a meat market lol. Maybe something in Soho- I am staying up by all the watch shops, don't think there much to offer there in terms of smaller bistros, except Les Halles?

Sam, perfect combo with Kermit!! Love all the colors!!

Steve- thanks so much, I am sure I will enjoy myself, I won't have to wipe a nose or butt for two days

Here are my new Choos in action with Daytona....

Very nice as always, those pants suit you well & are very sexy!

Shirt is a Bertigo. Interestingly enough, the logo bears a striking resemblance to The rollie.
