Car

Why no it is a 1963!

 

[Quigley Brown]

1950s sport coat, 1940s 'Fiesta' tie by Towncraft (looks like antlers from a Dr. Seuss critter) and a 1940s sword tie bar by Anson.

Metropd - I really dig that suit! Well done.

Quigley Brown - Love the tie sir.

Edward,

My understanding is that in the UK Scottish boy scouts (or boy scouts of Scottish heritage) may wear their clan tartan* while Irish boy scouts (or boy scouts of Irish heritage) may wear a saffron kilt.

In keeping with the Scottish Scouting tradition I am wearing my clan tartan, Galbraith.

Cheers

Jamie










* I believe there is a neat little story where the then Chief of Clan Maclaren stated that to those boy scouts in Scotland who had no clan tartan that he considered them all his clan and could wear the Maclaren tartan. Not sure if it is true or not but there are historic conections with the Clan Maclaren and the Scouts from the beginning of the scouting movement.

Not a bad plan. then, if it ever comes down to a clan war, this clan will have the benefit of a lot of paramilitary trained youth with an allgience to your clan.

Car Show

Did you guys see the winner and some of the collection from Jim Patterson? ( Louisville, Ky.) First time a white car ever won grand prize. I understand he paid 3.4 million for it. Must really be nice! John

 

[metropd]

Three-piece suit made from 15 ounce twill worsted. Not vintage, but woven the old fashioned way. The vest is eight button DB with big wide shawl lapels. Again, not vintage (made this year) but old fashioned. Looks something like the suit on the right:

This sounds really nice. I would love to see a picture of you in the suit!

 

[metropd]

Always dreadfully envious of your suits, Metropd!

Thank you! BTW that hat looks impeccable on you. Is it the same fedora I sold to you? It looks like it.

SteveAs, that's a pretty fine looking panama. What's the story on that one?

First day of my semester, with a white dress shirt, maroon tie with little golden square motifs, and charcoal slacks:

Second day, with a light blue oxford shirt, black-on-grey tie, and charcoal grey slacks:

I have actually been complimented on more than one occasion, by professors and students alike for my rather dressy attire. I wasn't necessarily expecting anything of the sort, but it's apparent that my apparel, especially different from what most choose to wear, is appreciated by some. My hair in the pictures is styled with Brylcreem, a simple side-part with a wave in the front. The second day I didn't use as much as the first, however. I'm afraid that I didn't wear any hats, either. That'll come next time though!

Here's what I wore today. Everything's thrifted. [huh] I like to think it looks somewhat 40's though.

 

[Miss sofia]

very pretty miss, love the skirt and blouse and your hair looks lovely too, very soft and feminine. In fact i love it all, the outfit, the bench, the backdrop..!! x

 

[Nick D]

Despite it being September, we've had some nice days so I'm wearing a summer outfit. Way to warm to break out the tweeds!

Modern linen suit
Olney boater
Navy pointed bowtie and red pocket square to go with the navy and red of the boater's hatband
Brown wingtips

Someday I'll get a vintage linen suit, but I've never found one in my size.

Lottie...

What can I say? Looking very good as always. You never cease to amaze me with those DIY dresses of yours. And just like you once coordinated your ice cream with the color of your hair, you managed to coordinate your dress with that lovely car in the back. Go get one (and if it's just to give the folks at the next Boheme Sauvage a run for their money)!
