Odd trou
Folks,
been having the greatest time over the weekend, as my love was with me in DüDo and we could enjoy the world´s biggest music show together...the image probably gives you a hint about the stuff that was entirely brilliant saturday night:
I´ve neglected answering my comments lately: sorry for that!

Monday had me doing the usual stuff, working and looking fly as ever...despite the fact that i wasn´t lucky two times in accomplishing my self-induced missions: getting my recently bought new tie (due to postal loss) and fetching up my new MTM shirt. The guys over at Dolzer screwed it a second time, there are still heavy creases around the collar...
Anyway...today´s stuff:
I´ve neglected answering my comments lately: sorry for that!
Here you go:
@Aaron: cheers, Big Daddy! The hat just underlines the idea of the whole fit :)
@Prutha: thx my dear!
@Scott: always a pleasure reading from you!
@Anon: got your point here and been worrying about the scale thing myself. But then i decided "what the heck" and gave it a go.Your point on the shoes: taken and appreciated!
@DY: cheers!
@Ciara: thx, Ciara. He does indeed look like a dickhead, but a very well dressed one. He always reminds me of Patrick Bateman, which surely isn´t a nice comparison character-wise, but clothwise in turn...
@Justin:...and i never get tired of wearing them :)

Luciano & Ralph or "The striped iGent"
Folks,
today´s look has been shaped by two factors: my new Luciano Barbera cashmere tie (a vintage one) and the fact that i dare think that this look could have been styled by Polo Ralph Lauren. Not necessarily qualitywise, but colourwise. The simple fact that i added a silver collar pin made it look special and dashing (at least in my eyes).
If you disagree, that´s fine: i´ll call it "The striped iGent" then :)

Mille grazie, Luciano!
Folks,
after yet another splendid weekend with loads of sunshine, an ever so lovely gf and gathering up with friends in the park (not wearing the new suit i snatched up for 99€), the day started off like every other monday: dressing to the nines, riding into town and spending a good share of the day in the office. Getting told by your boss you´re doing a good job makes it a pretty good start, hein? ;)
So, it was all about featuruing a kind of "italian" look today, which seems pretty reasonable under the predominant weather conditions: sunny, yet chilly mornings transforming into beautiful warm middays and afternoons, with smoothly upcoming freshness in the evening...ah, i love it!
The title refers to the maker of my lates ebay-find, a vintage golden and caramel-coloured cashmere tie made by Luciano Barbera. Now does this thing get you in the italian mood?
@Anon: that´s allright, Anon. As long as you keep coming back and commenting, i´m fine with your name ;)

Flowers!
Folks,
spring is taking up pace and i need to say that i feel accordingly, at least when it comes to dressing. Despite the fact that the mornings still call for extra layers to go underneath the jacket (e.g. cardigan), one can notice rising temperatures with every hour passing...
Scott Alexander, author of The Cable Knit Collegian and shop owner of CKC shoppe, inspired me to host my own shop, which´s entrance can be found in the left corner. Additionally, i recently bought some ties over at Scott´s and now look what he got me: how awesome are those? (the two on the left even came as a gift...). Thx a lot, Scott and i recommend you guys checking the stuff he has over there (and mine as well :)).
The comments:
@David: great minds think alike, don´t they ? :)

No more tweed for 6 months!
Folks,
yet another fine day on the shores of the Rhein: remarkably warm (about 11 degrees), a freshly blowing spring wind and loads of sunshine. To even top that off, i could leave the office quite early today and went sale shopping to Neuss, another raid to Tkmaxx then. What first seemed to be a complete waiste of time finally turned into a pleasing journey: i could score a cashmere / silk tie, a fully uncanvassed dark blue cotton blazer with working cuffs and a nice floral/paisley scarf...summer, get yourself through the door, i am ready!
As mentioned in the title: last time for tweed today. This kind of fabric will not reappear any sooner than october.
Sorry for the blurry pic, seems as if my camera even can´t stand tweed anymore...off ye go!
Before i start to answer your comments: i seized my early work´s leave to reorganize my tie collection, separating them into two batches: the silk ones and the woolen ones (or mixed fibers)...in my eyes i have now layed a solid base, but there is a lot of room for improvement :)
Finally, the comments:
@Love: shooting close-ups is the new way to go :)
