What are you wearing today??

[nice hat dude!]

hhehhe, something is in the works my friend

But yes, one day I could wear a different outfit, and take pictures instead of when I only have this outfit on, hahaha!

As soon as the wife lends me(in my next life and doubt it even then) the money this would be my plan also.(haha)

Great looking gray hat splintercellsz! How did you get the brim to go straight out like that? I would like to do that to a Homburg I have.

Thanks for the compliment nice hat dude. You guys almost revealed a biker's best kept secret that we only have one set of clothes! I lost track of our guitar discussion awhile back and that is I do not know of any Gibson with a maple top. Sorry for the delay.

Thanks on the Guitar reply and one outfit aint bad as long as you have lots of hats.

I know what you mean. I used to switch sides when I chewed tobacco and it gave me a new look also!

 

[splintercellsz]

Thats for the compliments, Howard (may I say wyou are looking quite dapper in the suit I saw earlier!)

To get the brim like that, I steamed it, and immidiately but the hat brin on a flat surface, and pressed it flat with my palms, and kept doing that until I had the shape I liked

 

[howardeye]

Thank you and for the suit compliment also. I with I could button the jacket. My gut is now too large. I will try the steaming of the brim. I saw a Clint Eastwood movie the other day and he had the straightest brim I have ever seen. I think he was a sheriff after they tried to hang him. A great look!

Thank you, Evan!

I really am digging your suit & hat!! Nice look!

Thanks sir! I was wondering, your suit in your avatar pic, is it plaid, or is that the finish of the image, and also, does your waist-coat in your avatar pic have lapels or is that just the regular rumpling of your waist-coat? (That happens to me all the time) Just curious, the image is intentionally grainy for that period look, yeah? Either way, lookin' great! and Nice hat!

'20s themed party last night.

Hi Miss Tuppence! I just remembered; somewhere I've got a photograph of my grandmother and my mother's godmother back in the very late 1930s or early 1940s floating around....My grandmother's wearing a suit that is very similar to yours in your photo there! I think her friend may be wearing something similar as well, but with cow-boy boots (it was taken in New Mexico).

Sounds like a great photo- my suit was made from an early 40's pattern and I think my grandma had a similar suit too. It's a great everyday style.

Herringbonekid, Fashion Frank, V.C.Brunswick and Evan Everhart, thank you very much.
I’m very lucky to have a mother willing to make me such items – I can assure you I have placed more orders!

The suit is a 1930's Glen Plaid suit. The waist-coat is lapel-less. And yes, I made it grainy for the look! The hat in my avatar is a 1930's Stetson Special.

Good Stuff! Spot on! The suit looks like it would lend itself well to a lilac, purple (striped only), or pink coloured, patterned, or striped shirt, or a deep piney green striped one! I just saw some beautiful Thomas Pink spread collared shirts fitting the exact description of the latter, over at Nordstrom's the other day. I was drooling over it, but the availability of the sizing there was simply beyond shoddy. Thanks for the response sir! Keep up the good style!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…, looking very dapper Mr.

 

[Miss Tuppence]

Outfit for today. I haven't worked out the age of the coat yet (prob. 40's or 50's), but I just had to have it because of the colour!
The black velvet hat is 30's and the shoes are modern.
