Husbandswear III: The Elbow Patch

 

Has anyone gotten on the elbow patch bandwagon, yet?

I really love the idea but quickly realized that the patches don't quite line up with my elbows! So until I can find a petite sized blazer with elbow patches, I'll admire those who wear them well, like my husband (Bill Blass blazer).

I also love the look of Tweed in general, and the way it looks so put together, like these two. The first, a model styled by Roopal Patel when she presented at Neimans. The second, a gentleman at the races. And I'm loving the brightly coloured Tweed seen at the Chanel Spring 2012 show (as seen on my Pinterest).

How about you? 

Do you Elbow Patch or Tweed or Both?

I'm more of a tweed fan..! I'm too petite to have elbow patches - it'd be more like hand patches! Not a good sight :p
