This Sunday we move back to Regular Time in the Chuch Year which means the paraments are green. So today I wore my madras jacket which includes green in the pattern with brown trousers, a grey Winchester shirt and brown brogued derbies. To further accentuate the green on the alter I wore a green bow tie, green pocket square and a green and white fedora. (Please note that hat was only wore for the picture and not during the service.) After service, we went home and I took off my jacket and hat and made lunch. After lunch I put on that brown linen newsboy cap and left for the Shamrock Club meeting. It is always amazing how changing to things radically change the look of an outfit.

It's sort of like a spa day today, half-hour massage at the chiropractor and pedicure, calf scrub and hot stone massage at the nail place. A little pampering is good for the soul. I wore shorts to avoid rolling the legs of linen pants for the pedicure.

The first day in a while that is mostly just a regular day. We're doing some key opinion leader interviews to get at the current and expected future trust for using AI in our field. Even this current AI leader is skeptical on automated processes. Basically, AI is a tool, not a replacement for humans. A more basic outfit today, though I used Friday rules to ensure a few items were from the least worn of my wardrobe items. • Shirt — DS-025 (Charles Tyrwhitt): A sky blue Classic Winchester poplin stripe dress shirt with crisp white stripes running vertically through the cotton weave. French cuffs and a 5.66" spread collar give it business-formal bones, while the slim cut maintains a modern silhouette—ideal for video calls and in-person meetings alike. The 2.5" collar stays keep everything sharp under a vest, and the light-to-moderate drape breathes well for a warm late-spring Friday. • Undershirt — US-008 (Pro Club): A tan heavy-weight cotton crew neck that disappears under the sky blue shirt without any show-through risk. The tan undertone warms the blue fabric slightly rather than washing it out with stark white. • Slacks — SL-017 (Bachrach): Dark brown virgin wool trousers with a subtle herringbone pattern, triple-pleated and cut in a classic American silhouette. Made in the USA with 3/4 lining and mid-rise comfort, they anchor the outfit in rich earth tones while the heavy wool drapes beautifully without appearing stiff. Perfect for grounding a brown-forward Friday ensemble. VWC-007 (Joseph Abboud): A khaki linen herringbone vest with dark brown secondary tones and a silver slide buckle at the rear. The polyester-lined single-breasted design features five buttons and slot pockets on both sides—slightly roomy at XL but comfortable for warm-weather business wear. • Tie — NT-028 (Fort Belvedere): A golden-brown two-tone silk knit tie in Fort Belvedere's signature crunchy Swiss Cri de la Soie mottled silk. At 2.5" wide with a square blade, it's deliberately casual leaning while maintaining executive polish. The knit texture creates subtle dimension against the smooth poplin shirt, and the brown-on-brown palette keeps the earth tones cohesive without being monotone.
