What I’m Wearing
Suit | Shirt | Shoes

Happy Hump Day! As mentioned in a previously post found here, I had the honor of being a groomsmen in my friend Reggie’s wedding. I flew out to Durham, North Carolina last Friday, with my suit tightly packed in my carry-on book bag. Here is an example of how to rock that well folded suit. So, How did you manage to pack an entire suit in a book bag Bryce? To be completely transparent, I watched a ton of youtube videos on how to fold a suit for travel. Luckily, I stumbled across this video found here, which really did the trick. Oh, and did I forget to mention that the suit arrived to my home folded in a cardboard box? We rented our suits from The Black Tux, a on-line fashion company that specializes in suits and tuxedos. The suits were mailed out two weeks before the wedding. Since the suit arrived a tad wrinkled, I had no problem refolding it for travel. Before the wedding, I had a day to release the wrinkles with a little shower steam.

Okay, so that was a mouthful. Now, let’s talk about the suit. As you know, lighter weight fabrics are the best way to go for summer. This particular suit was light enough for a humid, afternoon. You know that down south heat is a different type of beast too! Rather than neckties, the groom accessorized us with pink polka-dot bow-ties and pocket squares, which were heavily influenced by the summer’s soft color palette. Light shades of blue, green, and yellow also complement a grey suit quite well. Overall, I loved this particular suit. I felt straight out of a 007 movie. So, how do you feel about this particular look? Feel free to share in the comments section below.
