A first look at @David_Speers.
The watch messes with the left shirt cuff.
I'll be keeping an eye out for shoes (probably those f***ing boots) and socks. Also on the coffee plunger.

#insiders I don't think I saw this light blue tie, white shirt and grey suit effort from @Birmo, replying to the #BudgetReply.
It's classy but unadventurous.

Who wears it better: @JoeDoesNews or @MattDoran91?
The lapels and ties are conspicuously lacking bling, gents.
#GenderBalancingClothingCommentary
#ABCNewsMornings Image Just how quickly does your beard grow, @mf_rennie?
I like the shirt but it's a rather bland. Couldn't you liven it up with some bling?

Is it just my imagination or were you shivering during this cross, @JakeLapham?
An extra layer would've been a good idea.
Do you not have an ABC News rain jacket?

#NewsBreakfast Image I had another shot of you, @mjrowland68, but chose not to use it.
I thought we'd retired this suit?
Good hair this morning.

Here's one for you, #CopyEditing and #SubEditing Twitter (esp. those of you outside Australia who don't know the context):
If the headline reads "Outgoing senator shines light on bullying" does 'outgoing' refer to the senator's personality or her impending departure from office? Here's the story (for those interested, though it's probably paywalled):

Not the most adventurous suit/shirt/tie combo from @David_Speers tonight.
I'm not really a fan of shades of purple or maroon for the tie when you're wearing a navy or Blue Suit.
#GenderBalancingClothingCommentary
#QandA Image A better suit than usual from @Barnaby_Joyce tonight.
Not quite enough shirt cuff for my money.
Still referring to 'the Ukraine', though. 🙄

Looking sharp, @AlboMP.
@RichardMarlesMP also looking smart tonight.
Both @tanya_plibersek and @terrimbutler show the blokes how to combine colours more creatively than just a grey or navy suit with a white shirt.

#AusPol Image Also bringing his A-game is @BOConnorMP, although the tie knot is just a smidge asymmetric.

Ed Husic is on fire, both rhetorically and sartorially, on #AfternoonBriefing.
I'm not sure about the blending of the hair on top with that on the sides but love the greying beard.
The tie and the 🇺🇦 lapel ribbon are excellent.
#GenderBalancingClothingCommentary Image The tie is generously proportioned without straying into tablecloth territory, @GregJennett.
The suit and shirt are good and the hair is excellent.
