    My new greatcoat.

    Now that I think of it. That coat and your homburg may have been meant for one another.

    My new greatcoat.

    Then wikipedia was made for you: Brothel Creepers A stingy brim hat can be found almost anywhere around here. I was otherwise going to suggest a big greasy pomp to go with the coat. Like this: But if Marc Chevalier is right - and he usually is, you'll be better kitted out like this:

    My new greatcoat.

    I might change my mind when I see pics of this coat with you in it, but it seems to be just crying for a pair of two-tone brothel creepers and a sweet little stingy. Nice sting.

    Show us your amateur photos!

    Lauren, I think you started a Katherine Hepburn: Style Icon thread at some point. I see why. You've got the Katherine Hepburn elan in spades. Who needs a pro photographer for a look as striking and right on as you have in these pics?

    Some Hats out of the Closets

    DOUGLAS, I'm seeing one of the old salts from Eugene Oneill's early plays in your avatar. Nice! :eusa_clap Also, man, just how big ARE your closets? Finally, that panama has a nice patina. Have you had it refurbished at all or is it au natural.

    Immaculate 1930s Dudley G. Eldridge

    I picked this up today from a friend who called to tell me she had a Dudley G. Eldridge homburg. I had never heard of Dudley G. Eldridge and I don't need any more homburgs, but i had some credit with her and she had some ties in as well, so I went to see what was new. The hat is a very dark...

    Cocaine Paranoia films

    That was about ketamine. A different kettle of fish-like creatures that occasionally fly and change size and colour at will. Cocaine is not a hallucinogen, though it can cause psychotic episodes that may be accompanied by delusions. It's all just good fun.

    Tribute to Otto Preminger

    One of my wife's favourite movies is Bonjour Tristesse. Which makes her either very cool or very crazy.

    The "Organic" Trend - do you believe the hype?

    You need to taste this little jewel. Deelish! But for the price it is a small measure and low alcohol content, so not really the right drink for a drinker like me. If the organic ale you tried was St Peters, I couldn't disagree with you more. It is well and above par. It makes par an...

    "Pretty in Pink" in the Golden Age

    I take it, from your merciless lampooning, that you are not admirers of Cesar Romero's suave and stylin' ways. Your loss.

    New project hat for QM2006

    Wow. That's a good looking project. What kind of equipment are you using, if any?

    The "Organic" Trend - do you believe the hype?

    Bottled water has to get to market. It is driven and flown. It has to be packaged in glass or plastic. It puts a strain on sources that are not carefully managed and potentially depletes local water supplies, sometimes diverting water that would otherwise supply streams, wetlands etc. Your...

    The "Organic" Trend - do you believe the hype?

    I think that more than the personal (possible) health benefits the appeal of organic produce is that it is believed to be less harmful on the environment to produce. It gives consumers a (sometimes false) sense of having done the right thing by buying organic. The problem is the the word...
