    I just got a fedora...

    In the picture with Leonardo DiCaprio, that's basically how my hair is combed on most days. That's a great haircut to go along with fedora wearing. During the era that this type of hat was worn most regularly, the side-part was very common.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I really liked that film. I also like the fact that they went "fantasy" towards the end, and had Hitler and the Nazis in the burning theater killed. It was very satisfying to watch Hitler die...

    White Shirt? Colored Shirt?

    I wear colored or patterned shirts 95% of the time. Maybe even more than that, but always a collared shirt, whether dress, camp/safari, or polo shirt. I usually only wear my white oxford button-down shirt to church, or on occasions I would rather dress up a bit more, and this is also most often...

    Pomade

    I think that's more than I would be willing to pay, but it's not all that difficult for me to make use of Dax Wave and Groom to get that style anyway. Acne might be a problem for some however. With the recent summer heat and all though, has anybody been finding their hair drying up more quickly...

    fur felt in hot weather?

    I know it's a light colored hat, almost white, but I've been wearing my felt Stetson Open Road. It's the modern version. I'm still adjusting the sweatband to fit more closely, so I'll have to wear it more often. Despite going out with it in 80 or more degree weather, it's not bad. I have to pull...

    It's starting to look like we've come full circle...

    I'm not so sure about that myself, Fidena. You could be right about something, but it seems that for the past four years (helped a little bit by Mad Men?), the 1960s look for suits has gradually been coming back. As a matter in fact, I sometimes hear that elements of the 1970s are going to come...

    Hair cuts

    Reg Traviss does have a cool haircut; very classic. It's too close of a shave on the sides than how I would dare to have my haircut though. While the style looks good on him, I'd be worried that having my hair cut that much tapered would remind people of Nazis, an unfortunate association with...

    Expedition to find the Lost City of Gold

    Ken, hopefully you get to see exactly what it is you're looking for! Good luck, I hope you and your friends have a safe expedition down there. I will be interested in reading how it went, and if possible, please take pictures to show us if you'd like.

    Childhood TV kiddie shows...

    I was born in 1989, and when I was a little kid, I used to mainly watch Mr. Roger's Neighborhood, Sesame Street, Muppets, and a number of cartoons on the network Nick Jr. (I'm not sure if it still exists). I had also been raised on classic television shows of the '50s, '60s, and '70s; I Love...

    What are you wearing today??

    Some very stylish ladies and gentlemen here! Today, I'm wearing my new safari shirt and khakis. I planned on going hiking as well, in which case I'll probably be bringing along my Akubra Fed IV to protect from the hot sun. Wearing my now-required glasses: The hat:

    Pocket Watch + Chain + Lapel Buttonhole + Pocket

    I know a personal example of this. An old photograph of my great grandfather, Maurizio, has what appears to be him wearing a pocket watch with a chain through the lapel buttonhole. Here is the photograph, although I have no idea what decade it was taken. He was born 1906, so this might have...

    The Prefect Suit video.

    That suit and its wearer just scream "Hipster!" Too low rise, too narrow in the lapels (and I even like those), too thin and wrinkly of a fabric, and the worst offender, wearing a trilby hat ironically, tilted above the hairline with the fringe falling across the forehead. It didn't look good...

    Pomade

    Hey Jan, I've read on The Rebel Rouser that you made a post saying they might discontinue Royal Crown Pomade. Where did you hear about this, does the company have a website? I've tried to look into their site if they had one, but I've never been able to find it. That's too bad, as Royal Crown's...

    what sort of man do you find more attractive?Suit or jacket?

    They both sound like nice guys, but your friend wearing the pirate jacket seems to be the most... interesting. Whatever that means is up to you to decide, but that doesn't mean it's a good or a bad thing in particular. Are you planning on dating one of two?

    Hair cuts

    Alright, I've tried a little bit (maybe not enough) of Eau de Quinine, the Pinaud/Clubman product I had mentioned earlier. I didn't use anything else, either. It's greaseless and not really slick, but although you can't really see it in the photo, there is a little shine in it. The hold isn't...

    Space: end of an era?

    I have long admired the achievements of the astronauts and NASA in their endeavors. It's too bad about the dismal state of funding. Now it seems that they'll be basically put on hiatus due to the end of the space shuttle program. I keep hearing of this. Why not just return to the moon? It's...

    Old movies and vices

    I'm not gonna lie, I'm no smoker myself, and as a matter in fact I am against it, but it can be a matter of style on film. Whether it's Humphrey Bogart, Clark Gable, Clint Eastwood, Sean Connery, or Alain Delon; they all seem to make smoking look cool and stylish in their scenes. I can't...

    My New AERO 1930s Halfbelt (goat)..now w/ PICTURES!

    That's a really cool jacket! I like the different shades of brown it assumes under different lighting; either tan, or maroon, like your pictures. Which color is the closest to the real thing in the outdoors, for example? It's too bad that it isn't the right fit, oh well. Hopefully, the next...

    Your favorite movie quotes

    Man, this one's one of my favorites! "You mean like Democrats?" No offense to anybody who is Democrat either! :D

    Hair cuts

    I do get a little bit of acne in general, possibly because of my younger age and/or diet, but I'm not sure if it's got to do with the Dax, or any other hair product I use; Royal Crown or Brylcreem. I don't usually use a large amount though, just enough so that a little bit of shine shows, and...
