@Chris—I do believe it is the “classic” blue oxford from Thom Browne.

Chris left a comment on 4/24/2013 at 5:07 PM:

Where did u get the shirt and which season is it? It’s not the typical light blue oxford from thom browne, is it?

Carlton R. Anderson left a comment on 10/5/2011 at 2:50 PM:

This oxford looks pretty solid. I especially like the navy grosgrain ribbon detail. It adds a sense of luxury to this alresdy classic item. Kudos to Mr.Browne

@B.L. Davis—The shirt is blue, albeit a pale shade of the colorway.  At this time, North Carolina is not on my agenda; however, that could change at a moment’s notice.

B. L. Davis left a comment on 10/3/2011 at 5:59 PM:

@FEC - I cannot ascertain the color of the shirt.  I believe it’s my monitor.  Is it a blue or a gray OCBD?  On another note, are you going to be in North Carolina any time soon?  Would love to grab a drink if you’re in Wilmington.

@Tom—The sweater is a men’s Atlantic Traders vintage sweater.

Frankly, the outfit doesn’t do her beauty justice! She has a very sexy sophisticated look about her.

This is Great. The colors are awesome. Dark Denim is in and i just picked up a pair. I’m sold out on the quilted boots and the sweater!
I’ll be apple picking this weekend.

I have those Sperry boots in black and they are PERFECT for fall! love the picture!

Tom left a comment on 10/3/2011 at 9:38 AM:

Great photo.  I know that you try to get away from listing the maker of all of the clothes in the pictures you post, but if someone could give me an idea of where that sweater came from, I would love it.  I have been looking for a striped sweater like that for some time, with little luck.  I lived in a similar one when I was young.  I know that Michael Bastian featured one, but I cannot afford his stuff.  LL Bean’s have not looked as nice recently.

While it may not exactly be “in style” at the moment, light and medium washes are ideal “prep” options for men as well.

That’s pretty much THE perfect fall ensemble! Loving the boots… Where’s the sweater from?

Andy Stager left a comment on 9/30/2011 at 2:38 PM:

Outstanding.  Agreed on the denim.  I for some reason went 1 year without wearing jeans, you know, since I wasn’t a carpenter or a blacksmith or whatever.  Stupid sartorial self-righteousness.  But I’ve enjoyed jeans a lot as a result.  Great photo.

Bryan left a comment on 10/2/2011 at 12:04 PM:

@FEC When getting your jeans tailored, is your tailor able your tailor preserve the original chain stitch at the hem?

F.E. Castleberry left a comment on 9/30/2011 at 1:15 PM:

@Paul—Have you ever seen me with rolled jeans?  While I can appreciate it, I have too close of a relationship with my tailor to wear my denim rolled.  Rolling your denim achieves the same effect as breaking your denim (wearing your denim with a break)...they both do no favors to those who want the allusion of additional height.  The eye stops at the cuff or break as the eye travels from head to toe and vice-versa.

Paul left a comment on 9/30/2011 at 1:04 PM:

@FEC: the rolled jeans? I’m continually confused about your stance on this.

Simply awesome!! I’m not a fan of bow ties, but they look good on chaps like this. Haircut: from where? Well done.

Solid look save the shirt and tie; cricket sweaters are a staple in any prep’s wardrobe and this one looks good.

Boris Lung left a comment on 9/29/2011 at 3:13 PM:

The man’s got guts, I’ll admit that, bit overall somewhat poindexterish . . .

Ed left a comment on 9/29/2011 at 2:28 PM:

Love it (including the cricket sweater, which I thought was sort of the whole linchpin of the outfit), except the color of the bow tie. It’s too summer-y and the color fades into the shirt. A little pop of dark/fall color there would work great.

AEV left a comment on 9/29/2011 at 2:04 PM:

Remove that summer-y bow tie and that sweater and you’ve got a great outfit….

Darcie left a comment on 9/29/2011 at 1:45 PM:

also noteworthy: the boat and tote in a lovely fall color scheme.

AEV left a comment on 10/2/2011 at 12:16 PM:

@FEC - to remind you, I asked if was a battery/quartz movement as opposed to stating that it was. But, my question/assumption is based on the photograph and style of the watch. If I’m wrong, I’m wrong - I only clued in on the watch since you called it out as ‘noteworthy’...and, in my humble opinion, no battery/quatz watch is ‘noteworthy’ (even if it’s from a high profile brand that makes a lot of high quality items…)

F.E. Castleberry left a comment on 10/1/2011 at 6:36 PM:

@AEV—What is your assumption that her Cartier is an entry level piece based on?

AEV left a comment on 10/1/2011 at 5:59 PM:

@Rake - certainly many Cartiers have mechanical/auotmatic movements, but I believe these entry level ones run on a Battery Operated Cartier Calibre 157 Quartz Movement….I only raise it because it’s always struck me as an amazing marketing coup that Cartier can sell quartz battery operated watches for $2000.00+....

Rake left a comment on 10/1/2011 at 12:48 PM:

No, they are automatics (at least the one we have is).

AEV left a comment on 9/29/2011 at 2:07 PM:

I believe those Cartier tanks run on a quartz/battery movement, no?

This is great! I have a Sasha Rhett version of that watch, for those 20-something and broke crowed. Can someone post a link to her blog because I would love to read it! Love the understated tiny pearl necklace.

kitty left a comment on 9/28/2011 at 11:08 PM:

i like every thing she’s wearing but something about it seems off - i think i would have picked a different color leather for the wallet/shoes against that skirt. but all of the pieces are great.
