An ethical sartorial dilemma

[vaurien]

Having learnt to accept my inner Titch (see the last entry), I'm watching the diminutive Adonis for style tips. One thing struck me immediately - blazers are useful. I've been wearing a sports jacket of some sort on and off for years, so this is not a great departure. They're very useful with pockets for your bits and pieces. I have Navy Blue,

Or you could go with the tartan! *checks out the Kidd tartan* Maybe not :D

How about..

How about the longer nehru-style jacket - looks good buttoned OR not...

Have a blazer made in your University colours? (The ones used for the formal hood that goes with the gown)

London is dull, dull, dull navy. Got that. Our graduation (the only time we saw the academic garb and substantially boycotted due to anti-royal feeling) was odd in that the music graduates had a wildly different academic kit of sky blue with White edging. I suppose that's an option, though the cleaning bills would mount up a bit.

Ta. Nothing jumped out at me though. I suppose I could take a wander down to a real tailor and see what can be done.

What's wrong with something simple like black with white piping?

Actually, that suits him :)

*Laugh* Interesting little number. That's an old photo of me. Same problem hair though.
