My son Daniel's first vintage suit, late 1930s. A perfect fit. The blue shirt is modern, all else is vintage. He got a p/t job this summer, and every paycheck he sends a pmt to our vintage dealer towards his layaway items. He has one more pmt to pay off the vintage fedora he bought to go with this.

He first wore this to H.S. a week or two ago (he's now a Senior), for "Well Dressed Wednesday", that he and some pals started at their school.

WoW! What a dashing young man to fill that beautiful suit, great to see. Well dressed wednesday sounds like fun, if only I had that idea when I was in school

First post here. :D

I pulled out my grandfather's old horsehide jacket this morning because the thermometer dipped down to +1 C overnight. Everything is vintage and/or thrifted.

The jacket is my old "utility" jacket. I inherited it about 25 years ago. It's on its 3rd lining and about to need its 3rd zipper.
Cardigan is a thrifted vintage cashmere Jaeger. The pants are Wings & Horns Westpoint chino; the shirt is Homunculs Troglodyte.
The boots are - I think - from the 1950s. Thrifted. By Tyrol Co. of Montreal. All they have on them is a few applications of Lexol.

With apologies for the washed out photo - adverse lighting conditions in this house!
My new coat, picked up at an antique shop for 20 bucks. Not vintage, but I rather like it. Patch pockets HO!

Here's a pic of the shoes as they're rather hard to see:

Saturday saw the arrival of the annual World Zombie Day event. My costume was constituted of vintage style bits. The tweed jacket is very traditional (tailor made, quitel ikely 1970s manufacture). I loved it until it was irreperable ravaged by carpet beetles along the back of the shoulders. Still, it did not die in vain as Zombie Edward was well clad. Cravat is a (well-worn) vintage piece, probably 60s; trousers HeyDay reproduction 50s cut. Ironically, while we were costumed as a zombie version of the League of Gentlemen's Edward and Tubbs, the costume probably wasn't that far off what I'd wear normally...
