WDIWT...3/5/13

Wore this today, snapped a couple of quick pictures at work. Still feeling under the weather, intended to wear a gray Double Breasted blazer but instead went for the sweater as I just was too warm this morning...fever I'm sure. The trousers could probably be a little longer, opinions? I wore my Cole Haan Air Colton Wingtip boots so the trousers may not look as short as they are, boots are about 8 inches in height. First time I wear them too and I go a pretty awesome compliment from my co-worker, check it out below:

Details:
Sweater: Gray Polo Sweater-Gift
Shirt: Alfani White/Black Mini-Check via Macy's-$12
Trousers: H&M Black Cords-$10
Shoes: Cole Haan Air Colton 8" High Black Wingtip Boots




And nothing better than:

Remember These Cords?


Remember the cords I posted here well here is a better picture of the color along with a black pair I was given by my brother as they didn't fit him.

Go to Hell Pants!

Go to Hell Pants are trousers that are so out there either due to their design (designs stitched on) or due to their color. Usually the odder the color or the brighter the color the more out there the trousers are. On a whim my wife and I went into Express and I saw these red trousers and figured what the hell let me try them on. Frankly on the rack they didn't seem like they would like right on me, tried them on and liked how they look. With the 50% off their clearance, I picked them up for $15. They are from Express's Photographer Fit line.


Gap Sale, made it out like a bandit!

My wife and I hit up the Gap store at our local mall yesterday to just peruse. We found quite a few things, I was probably the more surprised of the two since I rarely, if ever find anything at my Gap store that either I like or two are in my size (36). To my surprise I found three trousers for an amazing price, and with the 30% promotion they were running, they were even cheaper. Some times it simply doesn't hurt to just go and take a look, frankly I almost didn't as I was going to go back to the car instead to grab a bag we had forgotten. I am going to provide the price before the 30% and after below, just as an FYI.

Details:

Black Cotton Blend Trousers $7.97/$5.58
Charcoal Wool Blend Trousers $11.97/$8.40
Beige Tweed Blend Trousers $11.97/$8.40

Total without 30% off: $31.91+Tax
Total with 30% off: $22.38+Tax

(Ignore the red trousers as they are not from Gap)

WDIWT...3/1/13

I decided to go with shades of gray and keep it casual, not sloppy. Quick note: I'm wearing my pea coat as I had just walked into work.

Details:
Sweater: Gap Cardigan via Gap Factory Store-$15
Shirt: Alfani White/Black Micro-Check via Macy's-$12
Jeans: Gap "Slim" Fit via Gap-$45
Shoes: Nike AM1 Safari via Nike Factory Store-$50
Coat: Old Navy Pea Coat via Old Navy-$40 (had it for years)
