Dinnermint. She manages money better than me, but in fairness, I needed a coat. Scotland is currently colder than a witches nipple.
Benz when I wear a tie (weddings, funerals, meetings, interviews) I favour a half Windsor. I'm not really into cravats. Although I like a good scarf.

Thanked: 227On the post just before mine.
My old man had a friend who unfortunately passed on last year, but before going asked my dad to organise his funeral, and do what he thought appropriate with his belongings.
My father gave me some straight razors the old gent owned (a couple of gottas) and a tie, tie pin, and cufflink set, those are now in my cufflinks box and see some wear, they were perfectly packaged and looked unused, so I keep them for those occasions when some flare is appropriate, which to me was clearly what he did.

These day you won't catch me in no monkey suit. If the occasion calls for it, guess who won't be there.

Depends on whom I am impressing.
case A:
cf this thread
* funtawear or a 'horizontal opening' onesie
* belted knit sweater or knit poncho
* pornstache
or something along the continental
case B (bowing to the the demands of modern society):
straight up middle brow/ivy league conservative brooks brothers 2-piece navy/charcoal suit, zegna couture shoes which are actually high end ferragamo or allen edmonds cambridge, usually eton or canali shirt, shell cordovan belt, some conservative cufflinks to match the particular belt/shoes/watch I've picked, 7-fold tie and a decent fountain pen.
