Weekly Wrap Up – 8/22 – 8/26

.
Deal of the Week – J. Crew Factory “Thompson” Suit Jacket & Pantwas $180 ($256)
Eat it Alfani Red

Less constructed than an Alfani Red or Hilfiger Trim fit, but that’s not a bad thing at all.  If you’re in good shape, you probably prefer your suits a little less stiff.  The 30% off code has since expired, but another will come around again at some point.  Full review here.

More J. Crew

The difference between the alternatives and what J. Crew offers has certainly shrank.  Who would have thought we’d ever reach a time when the rest of the retail world’s prices finally caught up to J. Crew’s.  We’ll see if Frank M. and his gang bump the numbers on their price tags farther North in the months to come.

Most Discussed Post – Style Debate: When suited, belt or beltless?
Discussing belt usage causes trouble.

Good heavens.  You’d think the debate was over whether or not to wear PANTS with a suit, not a belt.  Never said there was anything wrong with a belt.  Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it.
