How about a Mike Miller long hair finish? Went on a trek this morning to pick up the Aubergine Meluse Rabbit 1920s Style. Got the inspiration from a Downton Abby image and Mike took it from there. More in the appropriate threads soon.
To celebrate the end of a crazy week, Patty and I took her dad hiking. Fort Hoskings was established in 1854 to oversee the Grande Rhonde Indian Reservation. 200-300 soldiers were posted at this remote (at the time) location in Kings Valley. What I would consider a "Strenuous" hike, only for a...
Bone Lord's Hat for my Bone Doctor appointment today. As screwed up that my shoulder is, there is a chance I can manage my pain and damage with physical therapy. I'm willing to give it a shot, nothing really to lose. For a sunny spring day, I chose my vintage Walk-over nubucks (suede) and a navy...
Very nice Reggie! You must adhere to tradition and not wear your straws until Saturday (May 15th). I may be a little stodgy about tradition. Luckily the weather will keep you honest!
Love the lines and color of this one Reg. It is one of my favorites.
Two favorite blues Eric. You never cease to amaze!
Spring has sprung for Brent's hat pictures! Yay! Great color on that felt.
That is one monster piece Bill. All the bells and whistles.
Congrats on getting your Jab...
My wife and I did a thing this morning! Our first jab! We are Moderna guinea pigs and go back at the end of the month for our second dose. I figured a nice Homburg would suit the occasion, this one is German sold by the Lodenfrey Men's Stores in the early 1950s. It was most likely made by the...
This is shaping up to be quite the week. I had oral surgery to put in the stud for a dental implant, no fun. They did knock me out for this procedure, so I wore my 1950s Stetson "surgery" hat yet again. Today I ventured out to pick up some yummy pain meds and the "Love Potion #9" for my second...
Ventured out yesterday. It has been a while since I have dressed up for anything. The broken ribs are still giving me a lot of pain. Went to a check up/consultation with my Oral Surgeon today. Actually put on a suit jacket and homburg. Made me feel somewhat human today. The hat is an Italian...
Corvallis Oregon car dealer in 1960. Must be summer time, straw weather. The station wagon on display is one of my earliest automobile memories. My folks had a Chevy Parkwood station wagon just like this one when I was a wee child.
Wishing my Lounge friends and family a joyous New Year! We will be enjoying our NYE in our "casual" outfits in front of the TV. Stay safe out there. A top hat for emphasis only. It really does not go with sweats.
I couldn't agree more! The outpouring of Stingy Love has been truly inspirational. Stingy hats are out of the closet (or hat boxes anyway...). Taking the stigma away from a slim brim hat has been a true joy. I'm in for stiff felts in the new year, I have a half dozen or so...
On the twelfth day of Stingymas, the vintage hat that started it all for me. My wife got me a "signature historian hat" for my Birthday in 2010, a stingy Woolie Scalia. I found the Fedora Lounge and became interested in something with a little more class. This late 1950s Stetson Royal Deluxe in...
Last minute shopping for supplies in crazy world. My new Enzo overcoat goes perfectly with my early 1950s Wilson Homburg from England. Wishing my FL friends and family a very Merry Christmas Eve. Hopefully you can join with family either in person or electronically. Next year's festivities will...
