For once, it's actually nice and sunny in Somerset – I popped across to Crocker & Woods on Catherine Hill in the hep and happenin' town of Frome, the first stockist of my handcrafted, 1940s-50s Western / rock & roll-style belts, wallets & wristbands... you can check 'em out here.
Picked up a decent Guatemalan straw fedora when I was DJing at the BathVA Vintage Fashion Fair on Sunday, took the 'orrible pungee off and replaced it with a band & bow made from deadstock French ribbon in a lovely shade of burgundy... given the rarity of sun around these parts, I just HAD to road test it today, and paired it with my Stacy Adams basketweave / elephant Madisons, a pair of Palm Beach 'Sansbelt' slacks I picked up in Brooklyn for $17 a coupla years back, a DaVinci 'Los Angeles' print rayon shirt and my Classic Specs shades... *addedum* d'oh! :eusa_doh: Of course, and the flax jacket is a Style Aire by Justers of Minneapolis!
