What are you wearing today??

[AtomicEraTom]

Thanks very much. When the time comes, I'm sure you'll be very nervous, I was, but it is very much worth it, when all's said and done.

Also, glad you like the tie, I can't remember the brand off hand, but I'm guessing it from the late forties or early fifties.

Congratulations, Tom! I haven't got around to baptism, myself. That's a really nice tie, too.

Thank you very much!!!

Congrats young man!

I was baptized and confirmed this evening. What I wore to church, and us relaxing afterward.

Congrats! :thumb:
You were well dressed, indeed.

I am liking that Luxire shirt TT, bottom pic gives a very British workman look c 1940-60's

A couple of recent outfits:

Vintage German waistcoat (the I got from FL member Fastuni); Luxire shirt; 1950s Tootal tie.

Simonds cap; grey Levis jacket; Tootal scarf; WW2 British Army leather jerkin (reproduction):

1940s Suit, 1930s Penn-Craft, 60's Seiko Watch, and the rest is modern. I need to have the sleeves lengthened on the suit jacket.

A cool, damp Easter morning in Asheville, NC. Took a brief stroll in historic Riverside Cemetery (resting place of Thomas Wolfe and O. Henry) after Easter lunch. Probably the last hoorah this year for the heavy tweeds - and not a long longer left for felt hats this spring! Thornproof tweed suit, Luxire spear point collar shirt, 1930's striped tie, suede captoes, and Portis hat. Modern Barbour umbrella.

Looking sharp, as usual. I've been to Asheville a lot, but never visited Riverside Cemetery. I'll have to make a point to go there the next time I'm in town. I'd like to see Thomas Wolfe's grave. I can't remember, is the angel there, or is it at another location? Where, exactly is riverside Cemetery?

Have you thought of a pair of kickers? Stacy Adams madison boots are cheap and comfy

I couldn't resist buying this t-shirt at the Goodwill this past week......

Hey Big Hoss! There is only one entrance to the cemetery that is ever open - get on I-240W(coming from your direction it'd be off I-40W at exit 53B - or 53A - whichever goes toward Asheville). As you pass thru the Beaucatcher Cut and get to the Western edge of town - past the Civic Center, look for Montford Avenue - Get on Montford headed away from town and in less than 1/2 mile you will see a little Church on the left and the sign for the cemetery - turn left, I think it is Gay Street, then right onto Pearson Drive and left onto Birch Street, which will take you thru the gate. There are signs to most of the notable graves. No, Wolfe's grave marker is just a simple slab. Wolfe's father sold several of the angels thru the years. One of them is on a grave in Hendersonville, on the road to Laurel Park.

Hello everybody, I hope you all spent a good Easter with your families.

This is what was worn to church.

I do not know the time period this hat came from but it's a nice hat.

Thanks. I'll stop by there next time I'm in "the big city."

Just finished this suit a couple days ago and thought i would take it for a spin, it's the first fancy back jacket i've made.
otherwise the shirt is Ralph Lauren and the tie is 30's-40's

Wonderful suit!

Nice. I wore a similar navy blue one to service, dated 1961. The lapels are a bit slimmer, though. Who are the makers of the suit and the hat?
