Well, I t’s a cocktail hour function, and in May, so it fits. Unfortunately while the bow tie is fine, as is the pocket square, they really should match. Button down collar isn’t appropriate here. And, I understand they’re doing sleeve alterations at most tailors now, which makes me wonder if he went full Mullen on the pant hems as well.
Honestly,bBatesy would’ve been my pick, but I’m good with this guy. Seems like a decent hire.
Yeah, those sleeves are the tell. That seersucker suit came straight off the rack at Marshalls. I've seen them there. Guys, don't buy suits at Marshalls. Not even seersucker ones. Casual wear and housewares only.
Now that I know Kelley has a sign in his house that says, "Live, Love, Laugh," there's no need to spare the disappointment I share with @soflagator in the button-down collar, as well as the mismatched bowtie/pocket square combo. They don't have to literally match, like the same fabric (in fact depending on the fabric that can be tacky), but they should at least be complementary.
That dark blue pocket square comes out of nowhere, like it was somebody else's and they blew their nose in it then stuffed it in his pocket as they were walking by.
