Maybe I should jump on the Corneliani train... if it ever comes by ebay.

I really love the look. Sharp, smart, sophisticated, if a little fashion forward(nothing wrong with that), something I would wear :p. About the shirt, it looks good to me. Your other option could be a shirt with the stripe pattern that is scattered(mix of wide and thin). Lastly, the shoes are what make this look really spectacular. They take a good looking suit/shirt/tie combo and make it fantastical. Yes, fantastical.

Thank you kind Sir.

I appreciate all the great feedback and suggestions. By the way I switched the knot to a medium-large FIH upon arrival to work. I also really prefer not to wear a pocket square to work. If I was going to a Wedding, or social event, then yes.

Not my style, but you look great. Personally, I would tone one piece down a little bit - the collar, the knot, the stripes, something. But that's just personal preference, and I work in a very conservative environment.

Like the suit and shoes a lot. I agree with narrowing the tie knot. Collar looks a little "curvy" for my tastes; do you remove the stays or is that the design?
The collar has the bones in. It is just the design of the collar.
 
Very nice look! I would add a pocket square, but you've already said you don't wear them to work. I also agree that the shirt stripes are a little close in scale to the suits stripes, but I certainly wouldn't object to appearing in public dressed like this!

What brand is your tie, if I might ask. BoBS sells at least 3 brands.

Thinman, Thanks. The tie is an Udeshi. I am not all that pleased with the quality of the tie, in comparison to other brands I have listed on the first page. BOBS is a real stand up store though. Everything came nicely wrapped and the ties I ordered were in tie boxes. I also agree a different shirt is in order. Realized this upon arrival to work today. No biggie though. Also switched the knot of the tie upon arrival today.

What I wore today 8/10 *PIC*

It's too bad you can't see the plaid pattern in this suit with the wine overpane and faint royal blue stripes. Hickey-Freeman 2 button Boardroom. Pants are flat front with slimmer fitting legs than most of my other suits, so notice how I choose less break for these.
 
What I'm wearing tomorrow 8/11 *PIC*

This is one of Jeff's Firado suits. You can read about him and his suits in this thread.

The suit is a 3 button in Super 130s medium grey pinstripe. The cloth is wonderful with a silky feel and nice hand. Yes, it's fused, but it's a very nice suit for under $175.00, IMO.
 
Not a bad looking suit, wouldn't have guessed it was $175.00. Then again, more often than not, it's how you wear clothes that make them look expensive. You make this suit look expensive.
