Tuesday Morning Style. . .

Up and at 'em very early today to get things accomplished befoire an 11am meeting with a colleague to get down to serious business editing a joint documentary video project. . . That has gone on far too long already. Only to find he cancelled the meeting due to political unrest in his home country and related personal upset. Well, it's not like he has a corner on that particular market. But still.

Concerned about family members I suppose. I'll have to touch base with him later this afternoon to see how he is.

Still, any excuse to dress presentably is a good one. And I managed to take care of quite a few other things before heading home to continue the second half of the workday from my office here.

Currently wrapping up my usual lunch of 35 Kellogg's Frosted Mini-wheats with a mug of reheated coffee. An apple will round out the midday "meal" if we can call it that. Late afternoon mowing and dethatching of the front lawn with the ol' power rake to conclude the day before a shower and dinner.

This is how it's done. Business Casual the RIGHT way, ladies and gentlemen. Even during the summer months. A photograph (taken by Studio B Portraits ) which appeared in 425 Business Magazine in May 2017. T his post on the problem of business casual dress began as a quick postscript to a previous blog entry last week but quickly grew and grew as additional thoughts occurred, were developed in more detail, and revisions made. So much so, that it seemed, eventually, like a better idea to make the initial P.S. afterthought into its own entry . Are ya ready, Freddy? Then, here we go. . . ------------ U nless you actually plan to sell beach snacks and trinkets on Cozumel, become a serial barista, or greet customers at a fancy nightclub after taking out huge student loans to attend university somewhere for four or five years, plus an MBA afterward, it's really a better idea to err on the side of (somewhat) more formal work at...

Friday on Campus Style. . .

S omewhat atypically, I was on campus for several hours today helping with an interview that is part of a larger documentary project on which a colleague and I are working. Although I am behind the camera (I'm the audio guy in fact), what better reason does one need to dress presentably? Exactly. Everything worn, barring the recently purchased University of Wisconsin socks, a gift from the Grand Duchess, has been in the rotation for a while now. And, of course, there was the Panama hat, which I'll wear until we pass October 1st when the felt fedoras reappear. -- Heinz-Ulrich

Tan Suit Tuesday. . .

W hile it's now after Labor Day here in the U.S,. we still have almost three weeks left of summer according to the calendar. And since today was bright, sunny, and pleasantly warm (though far from hot), it seemed like a perfect opportunity to trot out my tan cotton suit and tan loafers/belt. Slightly disheveled, yes. And the shoes need some Renovateur to moisten 'em up But not a bad overall look if I might be so bold. -- Heinz-Ulrich
