We dress to fulfill our own image of our self, how we wish to be seen.
ITT we try to find something resembling that inner vision, a portrayal to show. This is a timeless expression of self.

At the moment, I'm thinking of this image of Gregg Marmalade from Animal House, but I'm still contemplating the embodiment of my inner self.
 
Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor!?
You view yourself as a Blutarsky in a Poole coat?
Off-topic ramble: when I was at county college, some brilliant student took the school window decal and chopped it so it just read COLLEGE and placed it in the car's rear window. I took this to be an homage to the Blutarsky sweatshirt.

Okay, back on topic. What's the graphic representation of your true persona?

Actually when I rock one of my plaid Cricketeer Jackets with a black knit tie and white OCBD I get call Otter so much it's become a bore. Actually have a picture of this get up in the Ivy Style for Today thread over on FNB. Back in April or so I think, from a wedding I was at.



I'd have to think about the question, because it's not one thing. Depending on day it could be Poole navy three piece with light blue spread collar and yellow tie, other days the aforementioned Cricketeer get up. I need to come up with a more complex answer.

That photograph is now my new desktop picture. It totally gels with my mood today. Where did you get it?
 
On reflection, it looks like it was taken in the Burren, in the west of Ireland. Or, possibly New Zealand. Can anyone enlighten me?
 
A couple of times in recent years, women I didn't know told me I looked like Cary Grant. I thought that was about the nicest compliment I had ever received on my looks and/or the worst insult ever leveled at Cary Grant. However, if I had to have an inspiration and role model, sartorially anyway, I could hardly do better. Sometimes, though, I fear I am more like Cary Grant in his role in "Father Goose" than in any other. In that he plays a drunken ex-history professor turned beach bum--some similarities there!
