    WWII crusher cap questions

    I'm curious--you won't wear the stars, out of respect for the uniform, but you will wear a crusher cap with a military badge on it? What's the difference, if I might ask?

    Esquire's Encyclopedia of 20th Century Men's Fashions.

    I wonder if the prices on these are coming down, for some reason. $99 is definitely the lowest I've seen, but I've seen others go for $200-300.

    Are You Brave Enough to Share Your Prom Photos?

    Hem, I wore a similar ensemble that year. However, it was light gray and I was a three-year-old ringbearer. :D

    I was homeschooled. Never had the opportunity, and didn't miss it.

    Monocles.

    Very nice! After seeing the Matrix, I thought that pince-nez would be cool things to have. I didn't get any at that time, though, because the movie was too recent and I didn't want to look like I was aping its style. Maybe now is the time to think about it again...

    Pleated or Flat Front Chinos

    And while that's generally a poor reason to buy a particular item of clothing, chinos have a short enough lifespan, in my experience, that it might not matter much.

    Did You Get An Allowance?

    Oh, yeah--I forgot to mention that mine stopped as soon as I started earning my own money by mowing lawns and such. Around 14 or so.
