Last week. Getting ready in the morning before heading to school to inspire some young minds.

 

[Widebrim]

Mid-'50s transitional suit from Desmond's of Southern California; Landay of Hollywood tie (got a compliment out of it from a fellow at a Chinatown restaurant); my rarely-worn Borsalino Alessandria (paid about 3 bucks for it); Mezlan shoes from Spain.

A closer look at the Borsalino. (In a John Payne/Kansas City Confidential -kind of mood.)

Thanks, Rue. When are we going to see some posts of you on this thread?

 

[rue]

[Widebrim]

That's funny Mario... Whenever I find things like this I think to myself 'Why oh why can't these ever fit me!':eusa_doh:

Exactly my problem. Every now and then some really great stuff turns up at Ebay. Even at affordable prices. I've seen them come - and I've seen them go. Trouble is that my lanky self is somewhat out of proportion. Too long and slender. People back then were of a different build. Had James Stewart not been so rich I figure he would have had a lot of problems finding suits in his size. Life isn't fair...

Lee - it took you a pretty long time time before you finally started posting photos of yourself but since you did you keep churning out some really great outfits. Way to go! :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

On a sidenote: personally I think it's good that you did away with the stache, but that's of course just my humble opinion.

Wow! It really looks great!

Today I wore grey shirt without tie, black jeans, black leather walking shoes and black borsalino-like hat. It's about 19°C outside.

Some extremely well dressed and smart folks around here lately- unlike someone here (*cough* me!) as today for me ‘Sun’ means shorts and sunnies…. ‘xcuse the pasty legs, it’s the first time the sun has seen them this year!

Shorts (ha, I don’t do short shorts as you can see!) and sports blouse- made from mid forties patterns.
Sun glasses original 1940’s.
