Greetings,

This is going to be my first post series, “Outfit of the Week” (OOTW), where I will post a description of my favorite outfit I wore that week.

We’re starting off with a classic outfit this week.

Shirt: Brooks Bros. Regent Pink Button Down (excuse the lack of roll, laying it out does not depict it the best)

Pants: Lands’ End Trad. Fit Stone Plain Front Chinos

Shoes: GH Bass Weejuns

Belt: Brooks Bros. Clearance Surcingle

Watch: beater Coach quartz watch Band: the “Alpine” NATO Strap from NATO Strap Co.

Thoughts: This outfit is one I just keep coming back to. I love the classic color combination of pink and stone, this coupled with the vibrant belt just bring a nice summer atmosphere to the whole fit. Though I do have some gripes with the actual products. For one the BB belt does not have any holding power and I would never trust it to actually hold up my trousers. I think it comes down to the geometry of the buckle. I will be writing more on surcingle belts in the future though.
