The texture of the light blue linen shirt pairs well with a royal blue textured sports jacket. Gray chinos work well with the casual nature of the outfit; along with a dark brown Chukka boot. Oversized sunglasses and panama hat for sun protection finishes up the look. Grey gingham pocket square for an added touch of style. Brown belt.

Does eating at McDonalds wearing a Scottish tartan tie count? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Had to do a quick change to meet a client at McDonald’s. Grabbed my old chambray shirt and a tartan tie I picked up in Scotland a few of months back. Went for the old stand by Navy HSM blazer and Orvis Moleskin deep tan trousers, Pantherella socks, Orvis field watch and Martin Dingman loafers.

Today is Remembrance Day, its the same as Memorial Day in the US. We reflect on those that have served our country , passed, returned and still away. Whilst I am prying of my service I don’t often go to these services. I am not sure why, it is just something I don’t do. However today I have on the same suit as yesterday, because it is new, but with a different shirt and accessories. I also grabbed a couple of extra shots wearing a flat cap to see how it looks with this outfit, one in a Herringbone Grey News boy style the other in a Green Flat cap style.

I realize corduroy is the common fabric to use with tweed, but is it “ok” to mix tweeds (donegal pants with herringbone jacket)? I also realize you can have a tweed suit. I’m just trying to figure out if there’s a way to wear a slightly more formal sports coat with tweed pants than wearing a corduroy jacket? Or, does a navy blue corduroy jacket read formal enough due to the color?

I’m still hospitalized on day 12. As you can probably well imagine I look horrible. This is a picture from a much younger me when I was the Front Office Manager at a historic hotel. I have grown in my traditional dress since then, but I’ve always been keen towards it. As far as health, I am hoping to be discharged to an inpatient rehabilitation facility for intense PT/OT this week. I was initially denied by the facility because the facility did not believe I would be well enough to be discharged home in the desired timeframe. I’ve made quite a bit of progress in the hospital, so we are going to resubmit again tomorrow to see what happens. Neck injuries and recovery is definitely not for the weak.
