Out for an evening of dancing at my favorite month salsa social, “Noche Divina.” The theme was “black and white” so I was all in with the black leather jacket, white shirt and black pleated trousers.. Remy peat/timber leather jacket; Apposta white cotton broadcloth button-up shirt with button-down collar; Ralph Lauren Purple Label black linen and silk pleated trousers with side adjusters; Turnbull & Asher black silk suspenders with white polka dots; Southern Scholar calf-length patterned red socks; Bruno Magli black lace-up derby shoes; Apple Watch Hermès Series 10 with Grand H stainless steel watch band.

I put this outfit together for a funeral and my wife couldn't get past the shoes. A pair of Stacy Adams "Wayde" plain toe oxford she just kept calling them "sexy shoes." I'm glad I chose them and just a great illustration of how shoes can accentuate an outfit.

Recently acquired this double-breasted coat — have not worn a double-breasted coat since before puberty as I feared it would only accentuate my already-too-big chest and skinny legs. But I loved the look of this coat enough to chance wearing to last night’s concert by Lea Salonga, the original Miss Saigon. Blue corduroy double-breasted jacket and cream and blue pocket square, both by Brunello Cucinelli; Loro Piana off-white cotton twill button-up shirt; Luciano Barbera cotton glen-plaid trousers; shell cordovan belt by Allen Edmonds and loafers by Alden; Southern Scholar blue pin-stripe patterned calf-length socks; Apple Watch Hermès Series 10 with Grand H stainless steel watch band; Saks Fifth Avenue navy blue wool flat cap; Hermès navy silk-cashmere scarf.

Arrived on location with no tables! Supposed to start at 8 and still no tables.
