    I really like how the different tones of tan and camel work together. I’m a fan of the button down shirt as well.

    This feels boring.. I think should be more livelier, colorful to inflect mood… For me it brings my mood down to sullen.

      A purple check shirt and medium green sweater isn’t colorful enough for you? 🙂

        Hmm.. I like the outfit.. I think for the day it could be more cheerful… maybe it’s the grey background and it’s grey and rainy here in philly.. For me, I would be a little more “springy” with my color selection. Colors impact mood..

    I like the idea of this outfit. I’m a huge fan of the V-Neck Sweater idea. I have several. I dig the Chukkas but something about this outfit is off. I like the pairing of the Sweater and the button up, as well as the Chukka, but the pants feel out of place to me. I think its because of the lighter material they don’t drape as heavy as they should to tie sweater/button up together with the chukkas. Just my opinion. The colors are great, and i’m sure the pants are great also but with a chukka I would probably want a heavier draped pant, probably a grey chino or twill. Again nice outfit idea, I would just opt for the chinos. Also I would tend to go with a tan blazer instead of the long coat. May gets a little warm for that jacket in my opinion and the blazer would probably give a little cleaner look, for my taste anyway.
