    Putting it all together

    Ghos7a55assin, you got style. What hat are you wearing in the 2 pictures?

    The end of civilization

    They didn't ban hats, they just want you not to wear it inside. They still let you in with the hat, as long as you carry it and not wear it, right? That's you would normally do with a fedora, anyway.

    Distillery to Revive 184-Proof Whisky

    In ascending order of fullness of taste: Laphroaig, Lagavulin, Ardberg. The Lagavulin tastes like it's made with water taken from the bottom of the North Sea-delicious. I've never tasted the Ardberg, but it's supposed to be even more powerfull.

    It was intended to go after , but you posted before me, and it turned out like this.

    TUX!

    With black tie, yes, although that makes it the poor man's black tie. But with tails?

    March 8, International Women's Day

    March 8, like May 1, has a political background-workers' rights, etc. That's why in North America these holidays were countered by Mother's day and Labour day. Ironically, both March 8 and May 1 were first celebrated in the US. From Wikipedia.org: The first IWD was observed on 28...

    Vespasian, I appreciated your comments very much. The second paragraph of your post sums up today's society very accurately.

    What kind of hat goes with a western shirt?

    I think that an "Indy" hat would be perfect with a western shirt. It's a dress hat with an adventurer twist to it. There are many good ones to choose from, among which the Adventurebuilt-brown or grey, Herbert Johnson-brown, and Akubra Federation-brown, grey, sand and black.

    TUX!

    I saw this at the beginning of this thread: Don't ever wear anything but patent leather shoes with tails. Otherwise, it ruins the whole look. Tails are the most formal of suits, and wearing plain black shoes with tails is like wearing a regular tie with a toxedo.

    The Axis Powers

    The Germans during WW2 rutinely bombed refugee columns in '39-'40, on purpose. In the East they were waging an even more brutal war against the civilian populations, and that's not something I dreamt last night, it's well documented. Yes, the Germans had an inclination to extreme violence...

    Braces on Casual Pants

    Use suspenders that button on, clip-on suspenders are bad taste, and they can unclip easily. You can put brace buttons on, it'll be OK. Even better is if you can remove the belt loops, if there are any.

    Suede Dress Gloves

    Yellow Suede Gloves Does anybody know where to find yellow suede gloves like these? They are gauntlet-type gloves, and cover the shirt cuffs.

    The Axis Powers

    I think that "total war" is a German conception of war. Like you said, they bombed London as early as WW1, and they also invented gas and flamethrowers, weapons that correspond with their idea of war.

    The Axis Powers

    The idea occured to him in the 30's, but the first to put it into practice was the Condor Legion in Spain, over Guernica. Guernica was the first time that a city was bombed for no other reason than to terrorize the population. It was away from the front lines, and not a military objective...
