I always have holes in my wardrobe even though I’m always getting rid of items but for the immediate future, I’m missing a bootleg Latto tee in XXL
Eventually I’ll buy a howlin sweater, a plain cardigan, paraboots to replace my wallabies that are falling apart, some plain tees to replace some old ones, and a long sleeve shirt
I can't spend money this month (which will be a good thing to figure out exactly what I need) but I'm thinking some louder or graphic longsleeve shirts. Feel good about my jackets/sweaters/pants so thats the obvious hole for me right now.
Or some drop brand like ALD or Supreme will drop something cool at the beginning of October and I'll make a purchase off FOMO
I will be getting a navy overcoat for the fall/winter.
Looking to get a boxy white button-up, maybe an OCBD. Also maybe a cute knit tie. Going to a conference in a couple months and my current closet is way too casual.
Maybe not my next purchase but have been 👀 this
this jacket from uniqlo when it goes on sale
Next cop is getting my pants hemmed
Whatever is on deep sale the next time I get drunk, probably
The interest may pass once I actually see it in person but the pink cord rowing blazers x target suit has me 
Buying some autumn knits, even though autumn is ceasing to become a season in Europe
orslow two tuck wide if it goes on sale again
black loafers
cardigan
Autumn knitwear
Paraboot Michaels
Kapital fleece Makanai
Some sort of overall
Maybe some black tassel loafers 👀
Oooo what kind?
probably gonna be Aldens in black shell
got my ebay alerts up lmao
think they'd be fun for professor dressup fits
custom fit earplugs so I can be the hearingest person after the concert
and maybe a new winter coat?
Dope. I’ve been thinking about some black tassel loafers lately myself. Although I think I want the Crockett & Jones Cavendish in black calf
if u asked yesterday, i would've said a new washer and dryer, but i just bought dem
I’m thinking I’ll get an LLBean Norwegian sweater since I’ve been after one for years, but I’ve put myself on a buy freeze for the next couple months so that I can actually figure out where I want to go with my wardrobe and hobbies
those are beautiful
Gonna snag an Aran sweater, trying to maximize coziness this fall/winter. Also picking up penny loafers next Allen Edmonds sale
Debating between new denim or a pointed black knit tie.
Chucks. Just found out they are making them in wide sizes now. I grew up using them but at some point they started destroying my hobbit-sized feet. Hope these work out.
it’ll be gone by then!!! lol. the first release of the utility jacket without the liner was the one i really wanted and i can’t get em without the stupid resale!
Like a grenadine, or a pointed chunky knit?
A good derby shoe, everyone has great ones here but I’ve yet to pull the trigger on any specific brand because it’s hard to decide. Leaning towards the Guidi 992.
I don’t think I’ve ever wanted Birkies in the past decade since they’ve become popular but I tried em on the other day and now I understand. Not a sandal person and prefer mules at best but i want to give arizona’s a shot.
Like a chunky knit. I own a black grenadine tie already but am looking for something more casual. I really like this one by The Armoury https://www.thearmoury.com/collections/ties/the-armoury-silk-point-end-knit-tie?variant=17347950608455
Silk Point End Knit Tie
We’re excited to introduce our own knit ties, made for us in Italy. Unlike
traditional knit ties, which feature flat ends and narrower widths, our tipped

That's very well executed. 👌
That one looks very nice. I have one I really like from kamakura in black

German Collection Tie [Knit]
Hand-sewn...An absolute prerequisite to ensure quality Handmade ties allow movement and are not rigid like machine made ties. Ties are machine made for the purpose of mass production, and this means that each tie will not have the same attention or care that goes into a hand sewn tie. At Kamakura Shirts, we do not mass produce as we wish to ensu...
that's a great price, looks like the ascot.de / Shibumi ones
I think that's who makes them actually
that are also made in Germany
cost more from ascots own site
I've been told they're made by ascot or something similar
Fit with the tie

housey furniturey stuff rn. kinda paused on buying clothes and did a mini purge/sold stuff the last week.
got a f/w jacket sleeves being hemmed and my tailor is on holiday. so picking that up in 3 weeks time lol.
peng
I literally have a black knit shibumi tie in the air rn to pair with black tassel loafers I got last week
the db looks 🔥 , I need to add one to the list
My current want to cop list is paraboot michaels, a green stripe OCBD (maybe Wythe since they're in stock), and Spier just posted about a brown moleskin jacket that I'd love for A/W
It's such a good combo. I was shocked how easy this was to wear tbh
Tie and DB jacket, but it's super casual and wearable
Stretch buy would be a custom hat 🤠
what kind of hat?
My ❤️ wants a hat to wear with tailoring but my 🧠 is telling me i'd look like a dipshit
Recently tried this one on at a custom shop in Santa fe and was surprised how much I liked the open road crease. Generally I like the pinch crease in photos of hats
Yeah, that's geographical privilege. You get magnificent hats like that, culturally I'm allowed a flat cap.
I think @philipgregard is in the EU and loves wearing lots of western/Brycelands type stuff
Everyone in Denver looks like REI threw up all over them anyway
I’m built different I suppose.
Yo I really dig this for you
TY!
How do you like the shibumi knit? I was looking at one from them but it looks a little wider than most other knits
I love it, It's a little long for me , but that's a short man problem. I can do a double four in hand and it's fine.
It looks gorgeous
This is great. As a fellow short dude I have also embraced the double four in hand lol
The talls will never know our pain 🙏
black knit should be here this week. I have a MTM sport coat and flannel trousers cooking with Anglo Italian rn, that will land in October. I'm very much looking forward to rocking the whole ensemble with the black knit, and tassel loafers.
I really dont have any sort of plan for what piece of clothing i need next
So ive decided its a tattoo
Idk what im gonna get yet
obligatory panther
I'm also very tempted but I'm hesitating between the colors
I know a lot of holes in my wardrobe, even have some of them on my notes app, but I'll just fill them bit by bit when the chances arise. Today I'll try and find a canvas belt online ig lol. What I really want is a basic blazer or sport coat (maybe grey/brown?) but satisfactory affordable ones are so hard to find, so may be more of a long term thing
I'm grabbing black because for a green jacket in that style I need a brown collar
Im not above admitting an american traditional big cat of some variety is a great tattoo
It really is
Wolf good too 🐺
good idea, I have quite a few olive or khaki pants, black might be the right solution
Invincible.
I was trying to find these slp xiv in my size but none at the stores near me
70mm heel, patent leather.
Next purchase will be a ring jacket blazer from yjp that I'm sure I'll mis-size 
Some paraboot or yuketen loafers. Another, wider pair of Oni jeans. A knit tie. A bolo tie. Some kind of sport coat. And belts!! I need belts so bad.
been eyeballing those uniqlo work pants (fatigues?) but keep putting off actually buying them
a big grey herringbone overcoat similar to this one by dbf for this fall (but vintage/secondhand and cheaper)
I need to get a fuckin vitamix so bad but I keep forgetting and spending my money on stupid bs
Like what's more valuable a blender I'll use every day or a coat I'll wear <10 times a season
Tune in next week the answer will surprise you!
I feel this.
I wanted a sonos soundbar at home.
But put it off because I can't afford it now
£ xxx worth of clothes later 🙃
I won a vitamix in a raffle once, might just be the best thing that ever happened to me
the dial is starting to come off though, I need to figure out how to fix it
I’m supposed to be buying carbon fiber by the yard for compositing but I keep buying clothes
so worth
just don't have an xbox and the arc, there's an unknown bug that causes loud pops
thankfully I'm in the ps5 master race
(I haven't touched it in months)
(I've got 4 games I've left unfinished)
Is a vitamix all it's cracked up to be? I have a Ninja and am a fan
I used to have a roommate with one and it's incredible but I'm not a big enough blend nerd to parse the difference
going from no blender to blender is a huge improvement compared to going from ninja to vita
I have a ninja, its great. I've used a vitamix and its very much better .
I'm also dumb and used my $25 Amazon food processor for dinner last night instead of our ninja so who's the real winner? (none of us, it took me forever to get dinner done)
buy refurb, use discounts if you can find them, use credit card offers as well (amex usually has a rolling points bonus, and citi might too)
Well, I bought some new khakis and some Alden PTB’s literally today. But “next” is probably either a MTM uni stripe oxford or yarn for the cardigan my wife promised to knit me
i like muji for t-shirts but their stock seems iffy and i want to get a new planner from them cause i put all my finance/budgeting in it.
haven't bought any clothing except a tee for probably over a year now
I don’t need Blunnies but I want Blunnies very badly. But more than likely the next thing I’ll buy will be a Carhartt jacket for my son.
I'm currently working on the navyblazer portion of my wardrobe.
I'm currently looking at a pair of Redwing Blacksmiths
