    Hats and vintage: With or without Indy?

    I would think Indy is a little more important than the numbers show. Although, I must admit, I came here without knowledge of Indy and only recently purchased the movies to "catch-up" with everyone else. :o

    Favorite Authors

    After looking through some of these, I better add a rider to my original response: +Chuck Palahniuk - All materials I've read by him are amazing. He's my second favorite modern writer (just behind...) +Hunter S Thompson - I know many conservative and baby-boomer folks that really don't...

    Favorite Authors

    I have three favorites (off the top of my head): 1. Washington Irving 2. Edgar Allen Poe 3. Marquis de Sade I think the first two are awesome at telling stories and using description to paint a scene. Both of them make me want to read all through the night. Sade is awesome not only for...

    Favorite Authors

    It doesn't matter what period you prefer, it doesn't matter what subject grabs your interest; you're probably fond of reading (I mean honestly, you're on a text-rich message board). So who are your favorite authors? Try to list at least two and no more than five (yeah, I know, you'll have to...

    Dockers Gordon Captoes

    I'm just curious to see if any members have made these a part of their business casual/casual wardrobe, and what feedback and/or wisdom they might like to share. I recently purchased a pair of cordovan Dockers Gordon captoe Oxfords at my local Famous Footwear. They have some thin padding...

    The Workplace...A Modern Tragedy?

    Just to comment on the first post... I was laid off last week, too. I'm going to take a shot at a better paying, likely less secure job next week. I recall hearing someone on the radio, or perhaps on public television, commenting on how today's worker typically does not stay with a company...

    Changes in eBay feedback procedures...

    I'm not sure I like this new setup. On only one account, it's good because I've dealt with deadbeat sellers and I have to wait until almost 90 days to leave them negative feedback (which I've done very sparingly and only after all other means of communication were exhausted). Otherwise...

    Is it appropriate, or acceptable, to wear seersucker pants (white/blue) with a navy blazer?

    Lacing Shoes

    You know, I hadn't mentioned in my previous post my intention for looking up various lacings. Does anyone know what lacings are more "formal" or which lacings are more Golden era?

    Lacing Shoes

    I just stumbled upon this site by chance and found it quite interesting. When I wanted to post a thread all about it in the FL, I did a search first. ;) So let's *BUMP* this!

    Fashion shift...

    I believe this "fashion shift" is a blessing and a curse. It's wonderful to have available more suspenders, trilbies and vests. It's nice to be recognized as a person of taste and style who is "leading the way" so to speak. And it's very nice to not find yourself questioned EVERY time you...

    I won't detail the many "green" things I do for financial necessity's sake only, but I will throw these two interesting things out there for your viewing pleasure. http://gizmodo.com/344750/tricycle-house-it-is-almost-a-good-idea And as some of you may have already seen these nifty little...

    How did you find the lounge?

    How appropriate that my 600th post should be this one. :) I found the Lounge looking for suit and hat information, etiquette and misc. satorial information. I stumbled upon a link to the FL and I've been here since. I love this place! :eusa_clap
