Wednesday Suit Style. . .

 
The upper half.



 
The now obligatory wrist shot.


 
And the lower half.  Not visible are matching belt and navy socks with a medium blue vertical stripes.


Decided to go with a full suit for this morning's Zoom meeting and office hours, snapping the pictures when everything was finished but before I headed upstairs to change clothes.  Two cats and an unpredictable child, who makes no secret of his  dislike for school in online form, mean that it is probably best to don some harder wearing items that can be laundered easily should unforeseen difficulties arise that require my attention.  Too bad since it was enjoyable wearing this combination of  items for a few hours this morning.

  1. Nice outfit, Heinz-Ulrich. I am besuited as well, today. A taupe wool gabardine 3/2 sack from J. Press, blue and white tab-collar graph check shirt and paisley tie, both from Brooks, and tan, pebble-grain longwings. I am actually in the office today, but still by myself since everyone else is working from home. However, the weather is warming up and my wife and I plan to eat dinner al fresco tonight, our first venture to a restaurant since one warmish day in December.

  2. Why, thank you Charlottesville! I will be eager to get back to campus late next August with the dressing possibilities that will once more bring. For now, the occasional online appearances will have to do, but how nice it feels to have professional clothing on once more.

    Best Regards,

All opinions are welcome here. Even those that differ from mine. But let's keep it clean and civil, please.

The Pleasaures of a Well-trained Dog. . .

  A few final photographs from my visit to my sister in Washington, D.C. last week.  These include  one of 'Mr. Beau,' my sister's meticulously trained and truly wonderful Doberman, another of my sister, second cousin, step-father, and yours truly on the steps of the church outside Lexington, North Carolina just after our late mother's interment service, two of me solo at the National Cathedral, and a final one of my sister and me hamming it up during a long evening walk the day before I returned to Michigan. My sister routinely walks to the cathedral, about three blocks from her place, to enjoy the grounds and gardens.  The Bishop's Garden, in particular, is a place she likes to sit for quiet contemplation and internal dialogues with our late maternal grandparents and mother, very much in keeping with the Episcopal side of things.  Our grandfather, who was raised Methodist, became an Episcopalian when he married our grandmother.   Before you ask, I am not sure tha

Almost Mid-June Sunday Style. . .

  A fter two months, Blogger has decided to allow me in the door once again, so I can add a long overdue post documenting my take on classic male style.  Since we are almost in the throes of summer, let's go with a warm weather theme this morning. Now, the items above will not be to everyone's taste:  Deck shoes without socks, shorts, pleats, skinny pale legs, etc.  All invite tisk-tisking and debate in certain online fora, but that's ok.   I wouldn't wear attire this to campus Monday through Friday, or to church.  But for relaxed, comfortable warm weather-wear around the house during the weekends, with maybe a quick trip down the road for a gallon of milk at the super market, this will do nicely, thank you very much.   It's certainly preferable to the wrinkled, torn, stained sloppy alternative we see everywhere in 2022.  Neither is it at all far removed from how the various men and boys across three generations of my extended family presented themselves during even
