Cavalier Officer
I know some re-enactors aim for that "lived in" look. That whole man on the ground thing. I freely admit to being a bit of a dandy on occassion - I'm not a bit fan of dirt and I enjoy some brocade and trim on my clothing. That's probably why I wanted to be a Royalist 
The picture on the left is roughly what I'd like to end up with. Gloves, buff coat, sash, doublet with sleeve ribbons and possibly even a gorget. I know a gorget is officer material but I can dream.
Immediate projects are the gloves. Something like this only in grey leather. As well as a tobacco pouch for my pipe tobacco.
