STARTING FROM SCRATCH : sweat it.

the sweatshirt.

please, try something without a college logo.

or, any logo.

think a color, or gray with an accent.

think slimmer fit, more like a sweater, more like a shirt,
and look to a higher gauge fabric than cotton,
something that might last you a few years.

then, let it mix with flannel pants,
khakis,
and nothing else.

if you buy matching pants, you are reading the wrong blog.
