    The right hat, the right look

    Is this the theory that one can pull off wearing virtually any outfit, garment or accessory if they have the attitude that they "own" the look?

    Help Finding Winter Coat for My Daughter

    Yeah, it takes all of maybe 1 minute to de-lint a coat.

    Three Stooges and hats

    Auctions are held periodically to cull the wardrobe and property warehouses. It's mostly dealers bidding so you'll eventually see the items offered for sale in shops and online. Nothing gets thrown out.

    Show us your SHOES !!!

    I like those and I'm not a big fan of saddle shoes. Hard to see the heel counter but there looks like something's going on there.

    Show Us Your OVERCOATS

    Yes, both are a bit quirky. I bet FLounge member LaMedicine could shed some light on the second coat.

    Missing posters

    I don't see bullying being a major cause for member attrition, particularly for the ladies. I've seen instances where a few highly opinionated ladies have been chided or rebuked on occasion but I wouldn't term that bullying, which is a long term type of thing.The closest situation would be when...

    Show us your SHOES !!!

    From Nick, a 3rd generation NYC cobbler Normally the fresher the stain the better chance there is of lifting it. I have tried 3 methods reasonable success: 1. As mentioned, talcom powder. Let stand over night. Repeat if necessary, then polish. 2. Cat litter using the same process as above...

    1937 Color Matching Wheel

    Not necessarily. From time to time I will take a hiatus (from a few weeks to several months) from patterns and go completely solid from head to toe. For me it's kinda like cleansing my pallet as I would between courses of a meal. Mind you, I often employ rather colorful solids (pinks, lavenders...

    New Years Day Rabbit Hunt

    Had a family friend who hunted with bow and arrow exclusively, from childhood up into his 80s. He traveled the world in quest of prey (while also finding time to found one of America's iconic TV and appliance manufacturers.) His home was incredible, with dozens of big game trophies mounted on...

    New Years Day Rabbit Hunt

    Seriously though, we had a family farm that hadn't been used for a couple generations and unbeknownst to us had become infested with rabbits. I'm talking hundreds upon hundreds. The property had always been closed to hunters but when my father heard of the problem he opened it up for the...

    Try the four-in-hand. ;)

    What are you wearing today??

    Yeah, there is a dearth of topcoats in the market today. It appears that they've been usurped by the raincoat. Years ago one wouldn't think of wearing a raincoat unless there was rain in the forecast. Maybe it was Bogie who killed the topcoat.:p
