Nothing overly trendy, nothing offensive, but I’m not “white shirt, black suit” either. Where did you pick up this outfit? It’s a Barneys New York suit, Italian wool. The shirt and tie are both Harry & Sons, which is an Italian shirt-maker, but they don’t have it in North America. I get most of my clothes when I travel, so I get shirts and ties from around the world. Is that a bracelet on your wrist? more...
