Sproily, you've done it AGAIN! I would love to get a pair of trousers exactly like those to wear with my blazer. Are they linen?

Ha! No chance - even if they weren't currently out of season, they'd never be in the building on a Sunday afternoon.

Sharp, everyone. No pictures, but today I wore something what I would consider not unlike the casual attire Daniel Craig sported in the recent James Bond movies (jeans, deck shoes, navy polo shirt, and same crew cut haircut), and I wore an Open Road and a vintage McGregor jacket for a while too. I'm not as dressy as many of you are, but I understand it. I would say my own style is a mish-mash of some older vintage elements (hats, jacket/coat), the more casual attire of the various James Bonds, a little bit of the Indy/adventurer look, and modern. I find myself embracing the 1960s mod look as well, although I'm not quite there yet. I think I'll get some Clark's Desert Boots and maybe a Harrington jacket at some point.

Harringtons are great jackets for wearing about. I have a bunch, of varying labels and qualities, including navy, black, PoW check, sky blue, and bright red. Very flexible style for many periods - perhaps unsurprising, as Baracuta introduced the original G9 in 1937, and they've been popular ever since. Mine most often get used as an alternative to leather at this time of year (though the weather being what it has been in 2012, I've actually yet to stop wearing my leathers for the Summer). Yesterday I had a day off, and only dressed to go down to a friend's DJ night in Walthamstow. The gimmick is that she plays not her own records, but those brought along by punters. In the bag over my shoulder are LPs by the Sex Pistols, Link Wray, Chuck Berry, Frank Sinatra, Stiff Little Fingers and Marlene Dietrich. Music smells better on vinyl.

Recent photo from the Monterey Highland Games where the weather was wonderfully cool and overcast so a proper daywear outfit was just the ticket

Nice! What's the hat? Great colours - I love earthtones. Probably because they don't seem to have been so "in" during the last couple of decades, they often seem somehow "more vintage" to my eye, if that makes sense.

Always nice to see highland wear, especially when it's daywear like this. Not that I don't like the eveningwear, but you just don't see enough of this sort of thing amid a sea of evening alternatives.
