    What to wear with a fedora....

    I think I see some fellow loungers in there! Could you point them out for those of us that can't put a name to a face?

    What to wear with a fedora....

    I think the question should be, "Can one wear jeans with a decent fedora?" [bad] lol just kidding, I wear a jeans/fedora combo pretty often, along with a black leather jacket of which I'm quite fond.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    I was kinda wondering that myself. The Dalmore Gran Reserva from jamespowers post is an excellent Scotch Whiskey with a significant price tag - most definitely not a bathtub gin. [huh]

    Unpopular movie opinions...

    That's strange, when the service drafted my grandfather, he was only 17 and didn't have a dime to his name. lol In fact, the Army waited with bated breath for him to turn 18 before they swooped in (the day after he graduated from high school) and scooped him up with little ceremony. Poor guy had...

    The Most Famous Hat

    Perhaps "famous" = most recognizable, or most culturally significant by today's standards in the Western Hemisphere? Certainly, Abe's stove pipe might be a bit western for the entire world, but what about the Pope's hat? Or Santa's hat (in all its guises)? The word famous creates a little...

    is silence a valuable form of feedback?

    For the most part, I believe we are all friends here - or at least friendly. I think friends ought to be honest with each other, and sometimes a bit frank. I mean to say, we ought to treat one another with the same respect we would treat ladies and gentlemen in public. With that in mind, if...

    When to wear (season) a tweed sports coat

    I prefer to reserve my tweeds to the Autumn and Winter months (not so much Spring and Summer).

    What old fashioned traditions do you have for Christmas???

    The whole family used to go to Grandma's on Xmas Eve night and Xmas day. Now we just go over Xmas eve night for a nice dinner and to exchange gifts. My step dad put an end to opening gifts on Xmas eve with my immediate family, and my honey put an end to it at my own house. :( So we all open...

    Unpopular movie opinions...

    I don't know if I already said this, but oh man! I agree here! If I see he's in a movie, I change the channel. I've never liked the Duke from day one. I even toured his birth home (a friend's mom was running the John Wayne Birthday Celebration thing in Winterset, IA one year), and left...

    Help Transitioning Up!

    1. Yes; wear a tie to work as a rule. If you are going to take this endeavor seriously, then you should commit to some of the more essential principles. 2. Excuse or ignore any comments regarding your choice in style. I know we at the FLounge have wrestled with others' choices of clothing (see...

    Rare and Expensive Books

    Quite interesting! I'd hold on to that for a while. I can think of two musicians (one American, one Polish) that would probably like to get their hands on that, both men being bookworms of sorts.

    Unpopular movie opinions...

    I have to agree with every one of your statements!

    Help Transitioning Up!

    Welcome to the Lounge! As others have noted, you should most definitely spend a few hours just taking in threads (old and new) about current dress, vintage dress, styles, fashions, etc. It's difficult to throw a shopping list at you without instilling certain principles you can only acquire on...

    Native American table manners, dining etiquette? during First Thanksgiving?

    Excellent point! There is much material available in this vein and it is the cautious scholar that can discern between truth, and the sensationalized above. You don't happen to have any sources to recommend, Lizzie? I like these sorts of books to space out my fiction reading.

    Red Riding Hood (2011)

    Hmm, sounds interesting enough; something I'll end up getting on Netflix.

    Worst Hat Bashes

    I actually like that bash. It's unique, to be sure!

    Do you say Goodbye on the 'phone?

    At the risk of sounding like the Beatles: "I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello; Hello, hello" Haha, I couldn't resist. I always greet with "Hello," and end the conversation with "bye". I know folks who just hang up, and although I know they're not trying to seem rude, I always...
