Great look, Rudie. Especially in the second photo. It looks very natural. It's good to see vintage being worn in a day-to-day environment rather than just as a 'going out' outfit.

i bought this orphaned suit jacket the other day, mainly on account of the lapels which are some of the most upward pointing peaks i've seen.
seller said 20s but i think it's more likely early 30s. (it hasn't arrived yet... these are the seller's photos):

A beauty. I would argue late 20s and early 30s as well

This one is going to take some serious cleaning.

Such potential. I hope it cleans up well. I've got a very similar British linen jacket from the thirties with awful stains. Are you going to clean it up. I'd be interested to know your methods and results.

I'm sure this one will clean up nicely... pure linen and white - liberal use of gall soap, bleach and oxy-cleaner will do the trick.
