    English silk self-tie bow tie, Pale blue knitted Italian silk sock-end tie, vintage M

    Today I am clearing out a few ties, the bow and the knitted tie being modern, and the black tie vintage, a spare I now no longer need. Both the former are very good, whilst the latter is sound, but showing signs of over-harsh pressing, which may come out after professional dry cleaning. Its...

    Vintage Christy's Imperial black Homburg vgc UK 7 1/8, US 7 1/4

    This very handsome Christy's Homburg arrived in the post today, but is just that little bit too small. It is a size 7 1/8 (UK), in very good condition, Imperial quality by Christy's, and retailed by G.S. Cowie, Aberdeen. The exterior is very good to excellent, with a nice deep grosgrain band...

    Vintage silver & rock crystal dress shirt studs

    I am disposing of these handsome evening dress shirt studs; whilst they are not noticeably hallmarked, they polish up like silver whilst I believe that the stones are some type of crystal. I'd like £12 for them, which would include shipping anywhere in the world.

    Jewellery Boxes - for boys!

    Here's my current storage arrangements: The wooden box was a gift from my parents, the others are more recent - the glass-topped leather box is a new favourite.

    Formal Wear Primer

    I would differ slightly - in that full backed waistcoats are entirely correct for formal wear, backless waistcoats being a more modern variant of these, popularised in the 1930s.

    Cufflinks and Shirt Studs.

    Looks rather alabaster-ish to me.

    Top Hat for Prom

    I feel your pain; for my wedding I was able to acquire a tall silk hat that just fitted for £14, but it needed a fair bit of work to make it just passable and has suffered in the meantime. Now I'm keeping an eye out for a replacement but just try finding one in a UK 7 1/4 going on 7 3/8...

    Show us your SHOES !!!

    And me! Here's a fairly out-of-date picture of my collection (must take another one): I guess my dream shoes (I'm not terribly dreamy when it comes to these...) are: Tricker's Belgrave (I love the adelaide throat) Any decent English-made brown and white two-tone I'll get into...

    BN vintage English Brown Oxfords/Balmorals 8.5 UK

    I've decided that these shoes, beautiful as they are, have to go. I can't bring myself to wear them, being NOS vintage, but I can't justify keeping them simply as a collectors' item either, so here they are: They are a simple but classic plain captoe Oxford, with a channelled...

    Calling Cards (name cards, not phone cards)

    Snap! I did the same (although I have also run up sets on those machines one finds in railway stations, post offices, etc, before now, with reasonable success.) I think the secret is to find the simplest font and layout possible, and eschew any design or logo. I'd love to get engraved cards...

    What are you wearing today??

    Absolutely not! And I love the overall look; very well put together, very "finished."

    Calling Cards (name cards, not phone cards)

    I do a certain amount of selling on eBay, Amazon etc. (collector rather than trader) and find them useful to enclose with items. Unfortunately they are too big to fit in my silver evening card case so I don't tend to carry them.

    What are you wearing today??

    Half morning dress for St. George's Day - red tie and pocket handkerchief and white d/b waistcoat. And a red rose, of course!
