@Brad—I’d go with 1 1/2” cuff.

Brad left a comment on 8/4/2012 at 2:35 PM:

What’s the best cuff size? J. Crew lets me choose either 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 inches for their essential chino. (I’d rather just go with one of these options than having to pay a tailor to cuff them.)

@AEV - the cut looks to be the Rugby Vintage University Chino in Red

AEV left a comment on 8/1/2012 at 10:29 AM:

Fred - are these actual Murray’s Nantucket Reds? They don’t appear to be….

C.L. Young left a comment on 8/1/2012 at 9:11 AM:

I really like the pants. The color is just right. It seems to take years to get that perfect faded “salmon” color (if not bought that way). You really can’t go wrong with a blue gingham shirt shirt paired with nantuckets. It would be cool to see a different pairing rather than the expected.

MGM left a comment on 7/31/2012 at 5:24 PM:

I agree—- for this look, the break on the pants (and the fact that they are cuffed) is perfect.  Just great.  However, I would only add that this break is appropriate ONLY for this look.  In other words, a break like this for a business suit (in a business setting) would NOT be appropriate.  In fact, I tried it once, and had to explain myself the entire day.  Of course, I assured myself that the people I encounter in my professional life DO NOT understand style, but that does not get you very far in terms of the business world.  But, with all that being said, I think this look is perfect FOR WHAT IT IS—a preppy casual look.  Perfect.

Will you attend any more of the Movie Nights?  If it doesn’t rain, I hope to make it to Rebel without a Cause tonight.

Fred, what do you make of Rugby closing ?

@FEC Brilliant Blazer/Shirt/PocketSq pairing… where is the madras shirt from?

Chase left a comment on 8/22/2012 at 4:19 PM:

@Marvin J - This particular sportcoat is by Rugby, and has been on sale for the last few weeks. It’s a linen/silk/wool blend, probably best suited for warmer climates.

Dan Abnormal - These frames are by Lookmatic.

Castleberry, you really know how to “put it together”! I become braver with my style each time I check out your blog.
I like the overall look: The unbuttoned shirt cuffs on that madras shirt remind me of Lino Leluzzi, whose style I really dig! The jacket is killer and the pocket square makes it all interesting! By the way, if you don’t mind me asking, by whom is the pocket square? I could certainly pair it with my “Churchill” inspired bow tie!

dapperdan left a comment on 7/30/2012 at 8:44 PM:

Fred, please tell us more about your hair. How do you style it and any product you use?

Dan Abnormal left a comment on 7/30/2012 at 5:32 PM:

Like the tasteful frames. Are they Moscot?

Marvin J. left a comment on 7/30/2012 at 3:45 PM:

Despite the fact that wearing a blazer like the one in this picture in the Atlanta heat would be incredibly ludicrous on my part, where can one grab a blazer similar to the one you are wearing in this picture? It would be for the northern fall/winter season of course.

Terrific look! Curious as to the pants, belt & shoes. Makes me long for Fall, or at least a break from the miserable triple-digits we’re dealing with here in The Flyover.

F.E. Castleberry left a comment on 7/30/2012 at 8:28 AM:

@Sam—I definitely recommend it. Great counter service spot. Reminds me a little of home.

I walked past this place yesterday. Looked interesting. I take it, you recommend?

F.E. Castleberry left a comment on 7/29/2012 at 9:30 PM:

@Brad—Linen/silk/wool sport coat is from Rugby.

Sports coat by…?

Love the look—especially the bracelet. The “arm party” with charm bracelets have been making the rounds in the equestrian world too.

Hellooo Nurse!! I’m with AEV here, Classic and Simple - it has been lacking lately. Well done F.E.

Also, anyone else see a hint of young Cindy Crawford in the face?

Dig this overall look…Nice Play on the blues, like the pants crinkle and fullness, jacket is a nice touch on a wet day, pretty girl, appears to have some height on which aint bad either.  I presume the only strap on the sweater is around her neck..very nice.

I always look forward to the first of the month in hopes of the new playlist being available. Better late than never. And because it never fails to be anything shy of grand music, I dont mind the wait.
Thanks a bunch Fred!

Fred, really solid playlist. I am totally in love with Frank’s album too.

Desmond K left a comment on 7/19/2012 at 8:37 AM:

I was wondering when you was gonna put out another playlist. I always look forward to then because I always end up learning about a new artist I previously never heard of. Its because of you that I’m now in love with the Mystery Jets!
