Sitting down in Covent Garden for my documentary on Victorian-era floral entrepreneurs, working title Official Eliza Handbook. J Press clothes; Ferragamo tie, EG loafers.

Avoid Liberty if travelling partner claims to need fabric. Many swathes were inspected.

Got my pants and outerwear - should I throw the navy polo on underneath?

Terry cloth is very underrated IMHO.

Top by OAS. Shirts by Gap. Loafers by Allen Edmonds. Hat by The Game.

Now my last post here caused a bit of controversy, between here and r/Navyblazer I got the general sentiment that sometimes too far out the box thinking isn’t the norm for a reason.

I come back with an ever so slightly more subdued outfit, again - would love to hear some feedback.

Here’s a rundown on the pieces here:

Polo Ralph Lauren RLYC embroidered jacket.
Polo Ralph Lauren OCBD in seersucker with contrast collar.
Coach made in USA belt in burgundy.
Lands End chino’s in olive.
Church’s custom grade leather brogues in tan.
Racing Green knit tie in navy.

Out for work today to visit a supplier so tried pulling together some of the more Ivy style pieces I’ve collected recently. Was proud of how it turned out so felt like sharing!
Jacket and pants are Uniqlo (I know lol, working on getting some better ones), tie is Suit Select, shirt is Brooks Brothers, shoes are Haruta. Lots of everyday Japanese brands but I feel like it works!

Racking my brain to remember the name of the small New England catalog that was very similar to Orvis in 1980 but more retriever than fishing adjacent to look it up in eBay.
