What are you wearing today??

[cpdv]

My high waisted Norfolk jacket Devon cap and a new bowtie from Christmas and I'm listening to the Charleston.

Out to lunch with a friend.

Well, I'm happy it was the shotgun lol I have two trucks, no pump shotguns until now!

Your gift had to be either that or a truck...Good hunting!

Pics or it didn't happen.

It looks similar to a Model 12. I have the 1897 with the exposed hammer.

That's what originally drew me to it, the receiver is a lot like the A5, which is my favorite shotgun.

Looks very 'Browning' to me.

Outfit for a pointless trip across London to collect a lost mobile phone - since I spent most of the day standing out in the cold on station platforms waiting for trains that didn't exist, I had chosen the right outfit (submariner sweater, Levis jacket, reproduction WW2 British Army leather jerkin):

Alas, I'm only old-school on the outside:

black jeans, black lambswool crewneck (both LL Bean), black New Balance walking shoes

seal brown Flight Suits M-422A jacket and light brown tweed B!wear newsboy cap.

I know - black and brown shouldn't work together, but I think it makes a dramatic contrast.

It's very sunny but quite cold today in the northern NYC burbs - it was only in the high 20s when I left for work this morning.

i agree with you..i like that..

great looks there Joe and Mr Badger, here's mine from yesterday taken by a mate 'at the local' , trousers are fuller than suggested.....not the best shot but hey it was Christmas and we'd had a few jars!

50's-60's ginger tweed suit by Mairi Macintyre of Oban, Fort William, waistcoat a Gurteen item, 'Four Way' tie retailed by E & G Wilson, Killin, Scotland, brogue boots Loakes Bedales.

That's a cracking suit, squire! I dream of finding a tweed rig in my size...

Great look TT, I have a RAF blue lined one from between the wars? so I was told and often wear it when selling at car boors/fairs etc or even working in the garden.... if I can't avoid it!

Mr B I was very lucky getting it last year in a relatively new localish charity shop it was just being put out on the peg...a steal at the £15? I paid...couldn't get out of the shop quick enough, only needed the sleeves taking up an inch, the waist could really do with taking in an inch or two also but hitched up under a waistcoat you can't really tell.... I love it, great cut and weight and the colour is magnificent in my eyes then I am biased.

The corncob is more like the model 12 but I can see the receiver being like the A5.

Miss Slapstick, you remind me of Sally Gray, seen here in 'Cheer Up' (1936):

that is uncanny!

Amazing lot of good looks folks. All nice outfits miss S. I really like the shot outside the theatre. Great atmosphere.
Q.Brown that is a perfect look. The jacket is fantastic as is the lid (stratoliner?). The whole look is so well put together.
Also great shot Dinerman.
Cpdv, Tommy, pinesiw all looking good over the holiday.
Happy new year to all

A really excellent ensemble, not that we would expect anything else from you! It's a bit difficult to see the hat. Your overcoat looks as if the fabric is rather lightweight - as if it were a spring or autumn coat. But I've long been of the opinion that lightweight wool topcoats for the transitional seasons have been missing for many years and deserve reinstatement.

Yesterday was in the 40s, so it was a bit warm for one of my heavier coats. It's kind of unusual, heavily corded blue wool twill- not what you usually see with a Chesterfield collar.

Here's the hat- I mistyped, it's a Berg, not a Bond. From the 1920s, but with the dimensions, works well with the rest of the late '50s stuff.
