I give my company this week off each year, which often enables me to catch up on some longer-term projects. That said, trying this last week in the house and in casual clothing found my attention and focus lacking. Back in the home-office now and dressed in a way that tells my brain it's time for work! Outfit details Shirt - Charles Tyrwhitt puppytooth pattern in mocha brown dress shirt with barrel cuffs. I like these barrel cuffs as they have a forward and rearward pair of buttons for both to be fastened. Slacks - JW Nordstrom dark brown wool slacks, recently tailored again and feeling great Vest - Perry Ellis linen 5-button vest in a creamy tan (if I can make up that color) Tie - Fort Belvedere crunchy Swiss cri de la soie mottled silk knit tie in golden brown and dark brown Belt - Hanks Belt in a lighter brown with suede material and a silver buckle Shoes - Casual Nordstrom open weave slip on shoes in navy Socks - Il Regalo OTC cotton shadow-stripe dress socks in dark brown and khaki Pocket Square - Royal Silk square with mauve colored geometric pattern on a field of navy (a Christmas gift from my mom... who called Fort Belvedere thinking their website was broken because how could someone sell pocket square for $100... so they kindly referred her to Royal Silk... too cute, mom)
