Details of today’s fit which was something between formal and casual.
First of all sport coat and a tie to keep the ensemble on the “dressed up”-side but on the other hand the cashmere cardigan and suede boots to dress it down a bit and to make it more suitable for the windy and moist weather.

UNIQLO +J-collection F/W ´14 A few years back Uniqlo presented a line together with designer Jill Sander for the first time. +J collaboration continued for a couple of years bringing up some of the best pieces Uniqlo have ever had in it’s selection. This Fall - starting today Uniqlo is bringing back +J. This time there is no new collection but the best pieces of their earlier +J-line are available again - for both men and women - including some down jackets and vests, flannel trousers, wool sweaters and shirts. Most of the +J pieces are very simple and timeless yet modern. In terms of price-quality ratio this is a collection definitely worth checking out. But be quick as some...
No meetings means denim (and naturally no socks) in the office. No surprises, playing with simple and solid colors.
As mentioned yesterday, white cotton slacks are one my personal summer staples in terms of any even little more dressed-up occasions. But when it comes to those more casual set ups, four out of five times my choice is a classic field jacket and light colored denim. The rest depends on the day, this time ended up with a lightweight merino-wool crew neck sweater, white button-up to keep the balance and finally spice it up a little with those Buttero tanino-sneakers.

I don’t usually wear that much of black (except shoes and in occasions when in need for a formal suit / tuxedo), basically because of the dominance and intransigence of black which makes it sometimes hard to combine black pieces with other colors.
However have recently been getting a fair share of #blackswag-propaganda so decided to use my old Uniqlo cashmere-merino wool cardigan as a layer when heading out for drinks last night.
