What are you wearing today??

Dinerman, may I ask about the building in the background? Any idea of its history? The reason I ask is that I'm just now preparing a course in Gothic literature and studying the work of the Gothic Revivalist architect Pugin in England. It looks very similar to some of his work (sorry to go off-topic).

That's Montana Hall, formerly known as, "Old Main", on the campus of Montana State University. Built in 1896, designed by architect J.C. Paulsen.

It was a pretty cold night for Los Angeles. I was hanging out with my neighbor and she couldn't resist taking a photo.

From a 40's themed black tie event at the local cinema. Every Christmas this film is on the telly but this was the 1st time I ever saw it!

I'm told I look like an extra from Road to Perdition (I'm the one with the hat on by the way)

Solid, fellow Angeleno. It does get pretty cool in L.A. in winter.

From today: Borsalino fedora, orphaned suit jacket from A. R. Donghia, Private Tailor, Vandergrift, PA; Brent tie; Brooks Bros. shirt; Nordstrom's trousers.

Both of you look smashing, old boy.

I tried the late 20s wide leg young mans look again yesterday. I feel that I have to be in the right mood for those trousers. And it is certainly the wrong time of year for white bucks but oh well did it anyways!

Great outfit - jacket, pants and bucks are fantastic and are nicely complimented by your seasonally color-apropriate sweater and tie. I read somewhere that there was a time when men wore white bucks with grey flannels in the winter - it might have been a Yale thing during the Ivy hey-day, but my memory of the picture was that it looked quite smart.

Yep, great outfit. I actually like the way the thin lapels contrast the white trousers, it creates an elongating effect.

Usually, QB, you have a gripping, dynamic, and well-thought-out background or scenery. This shot makes you look like a very relaxed, at ease, affable professor or author.
