I have read a lot about the style-quotient of the historical chore coat (Antonio has a video too). Unfortunately, there aren't many makers around in India. But, that was only until now when I found an MTM designer (in Bangalore), and I quickly grabbed my piece! We had a date night last Sunday. My OOTD consisted of: LAYERING PIECE: Sand chore coat in cotton twill (9 Oz) MTM TEE: Burnt orange in supima cotton TROUSERS: Beige cotton MTM SHOES: Tan moccasins in nubuck leather WATCH: Saddle tan strap, gold on silver frame BRACELET: Tiger Eye BELT: Cognac reversible with traditional holes The chore coat has stylish flap pockets at the bottom but the upper pockets are hidden inside (this is how they have reinvented the style). I am not complaining 😎 Your comments are most welcome!

Film premiere last weekend. A few years ago dressing up this much would have felt uncomfortable but finally building the confidence

Monday and multiple meetings called for a sharp gray suit, a confident smile, and just enough pink to keep things interesting. The geometric blue tie and pink pocket square matching my new Charles Tyrwhitt pink shirt brought a little personality to the agenda, proving that even back-to-back briefings can have style. A quick wrist check of the Bulova Morning Star added that subtle “on time and on point” energy before stepping into the day. And of course, the Michael Micallef Royal Vintage cologne waited in the wings like a quiet force multiplier—steady, refined, and ready for close conversations. All in all, it was a day full of meetings handled with polish, presence, and just the right amount of flair.

I'm not used to leather jacket so it's taking a little acclimatizing to it when I look in the mirror. 😂 The jeans have gotten a little big on me but if I sort that does this work?
