Every bloke needs at least one good suit, preferably hand made for the bloke, but at the least well tailored.

My problem is that at 40, I still dress like this 80% of the time:

I feel very self-conscious when I have to dress in a suit and tie.
But you are ok with that girly chalk dust bag? hippy

hehe

I went out shopping today. At least in SW London, it seems the girls dress like girls... and the boys dress like girls. I shall do it more often as I feel very masculine. I did have to look away so as not to laugh at young men wearing Tinkerbell trousers. And as for the couple wearing matching trousers (skinny jeans)...

i should qualify here, i do own smartish things, however left to my own devices i generally slob about in trainers, knackered jeans and t-shirts.

Reiss - aware, not been for a while, will check
Zara - always thought their things were a bit weird, and they don't fit me
Debbos - like next for me, not sure why, but i don't feel i'm quite there yet...
supermarkets - not really what what i was looking for, cheers all the same

as it happens i was going to a GQ event at selfridges in manc tonight, so whilst mrs 2cv was smashing the free cocktails and chatting up the male-jail-bait staff i was beavering about and got a couple of pairs of jeans, a coat and a jumper. Happy days.

job - IT consultant (no not an assistant in PC world, like an actual one!)
school - stty comp, stty college, BSc leeds uni, MSc leeds met
location - erm, cheshire... not the footballer bit, but not quite the farmer weird bit either
shotgun - i won a clays comp recently... don't own a gun though!
dog - none
car - Jag XF


have been eyeing up the idea of having a tailored suit for a while... one day soon.

grey fox blog - like it, cheers for that

as for shopping on the web - i can't be arsed with having forced 'assistance' in shops constantly, and being looked up and down... maybe that goes with the occasional scruffball image.
Just googled Reiss and the prices look errr interesting.

Depends what you want to pay of course, i don't think they're that bad. To be honest I'd pay the money to not look like I budget shop in primark, old man shop in M&S or tinsel myself up in superdry/g-star tat
