Everything about this picture is awesome!

I have to agree on that!

Thank you for sharing the details. Everything looks excellent, Dinerman. The guitar is very nice, as well!

 

[Fading Fast]

Dinerman - awesome suit and tie. What is the date on the suit - it was hard to see on my monitor? Thank you.

Wearing this today. Hopefully it doesn't give off too strong of a Chaplin vibe

That outfit is a total hit, Luftwaffles! Nice!

So, one one of the organizations I'm in was having a fifties day. Apparently, they meant more Greaser than anything else, but I just had this (I think) late fifties jacket altered to fit me and it was the perfect opportunity to show it off. Judging by the reactions from my peers, I'd say it's a hit. But what do teenagers know?

soft cotton jacket by Haversack.

Not surprisingly you have a very good sense of combining colors and patterns.
The very earthy and muted beiges and browns "complement" the bold stripes quite well.

Do you smoke cigarillos or is it just a prop?

 

[herringbonekid]

thanks !

Do you smoke Cigarillos or is it just a prop?

i do smoke the occasional cigar or cigarillo, yes.

i'm not advocating smoking though kids. it's a bad habit !

 

[Claudio]

great picture HBK! maybe would've chosen another shade on check but all eventually fits well regardless

 

[herringbonekid]

thanks Claudio. yes, people always have slightly different ideas of what colours go together. vive la différence.
oddly enough the jacket has the same caramel coloured buttons as the shirt.

HBK, that outfit is absolutely top drawer. Great use of color and patterns. :eusa_clap

 

[Flat Foot Floey]

Oh, a fashion blogger.


Just kidding. I like 90% of this outfit but but I am not a fan of Gingham. It's not the color but the pattern. Just personal taste: vive la différence

 

[Two Types]

Looks great (as usual). The whole outfit goes together really well.

I'm not a fan of gingham, I always feel old when I wear it.

Didn't recognise you for a minute there, and in my book that is a victory. Great stuff HBK.
