Some great looks on display!

In the meantime, I have got to try and persuade SWMBO to take my photographs for me...

Another Ravi suit, this time d/b 6x2 in a wool/silk mix, MoP buttons, with fishmouth back double forward pleat trousers as before. I like it generally, but the lapels look a little weedy to me - I'd like them a little wider, and the points more pronounced
Tyrwhitt shirt again (about 5 years younger than yesterday's, though) - blue graph paper check
Printed silk tie, with small blue, grey and white diamonds
Grey silk pocket handkerchief
Pale grey barathea braces

Vintage ruby glass cufflinks (in a rhodium-plated mount?) - my only vintage clothing item today, I must be slipping...

Here's the outfit for today. A Vintage-Inspired outfit, and a 2nd day hairstyle. The quasi 40's smocked blouse is from Macy's, the wool gored trumpet skirt is Ralph Lauren Chaps. The shoes are my ballroom dance shoes.

The only vintage pieces I have on is the little 30s dress clip which is 1/2 of a duette, and my 40s eyeglasses.

I actually like the front of my hair better today then how it looked yesterday when I got it set! So much so that I made the head shot pic my avatar.

"Yesterday here in the Swan River Colony, it was a rather chilly morning 3c so I considered wearing my Racoon coat to work, riding the train in to the city, I was a bit nervous, but saw it as a "test" of my "Nerves" of steel, actually no one made a comment or laughed, although I did here a few cell phone cameras click!!!!;),and everyone in the office wanted to try it on!!!, sometimes you have to push the envelope, if only for the adrenaline rush ( bit like streaking in the 1970's?)

Congratulations. You look great!!:eusa_clap Hard to believe that it's so cold where you are and you're wearing a racoon coat. It's going to be about 100F here today. My coats are staying in the closet.;)

Fabulous coat, Mr. Beaumont - I am verdant with envy! Wear it often and it will soon feel perfectly natural and inconspicuous.
