What are you wearing today??

Thanks! It's my aging academic disguise...oh, wait...:eusa_doh:

Yesterday, busy day at work, giving talk to a club in the evening, thereafter whiskies and sodas eternally, no time to change:

Lucky Strike...I could shave with that watch yer wearin' it's so sharp. If I may, where did you score that gem?

 

[Lucky Strike]

I have to ask: Is that a sort of continuous headband/scarf arrangement? If so, very cool. (If not, pretty cool too.)

This?

A flea-market find - this is a completely unknown brand (the dial says "Emayer", not "E. Mayer"), as far as I know, probably with some sort of cheap ETA-type movement in it. I really like it, though, particularly the dial. Paid something like $7, and then had it fixed for another $50 or so.

Here's yesterday's effort (not very vintage, I know):

This sweater is downright amazing, Dinerman!

Today I'm wearing vintage olive green men's 50s flat front slacks, a black sweater, black ballet flats and a vintage black plastic clamper bracelet.

 

[Josephine]

Today I wore this:
With a peach OR-style Portis and a brown houndstooth overcoat. It's getting darn cold up here, especially with that wind.

You look quite dashing! Nice pose. ::dreamy sigh::

Yep. My ears got really cold on when I was walking home in the evening a few days ago, so yesterday wore my scarf like that. Kept my ears nice and toasty all the way home.

 

[Vintage Betty]

Today I'm wearing:
1930's hat
1930's rhinestone hair combs
1930's rhinestone earrings and necklace
1930's style silk blouse (modern)
1940's raw silk black hourglass suit
1940's style suede pumps (modern)
1930's beaded gloves
1930's bobby pins

Picture coming

LS, someone who dresses as well as you needs make no apologies for not wearing vintage. Keep up the good work!

Don't go outside if its too cold Paddy - or at least wear a coat too lol

 

[PADDY]

Good advice...

But I am well turned out in an old 1950's paint splattered boiler suit right now, as the tasks I speak of are around the house.

Anyway, we Irish aren't as 'hardy' as our Scandanavian cousins when it comes to rolling in the snow without the aid of an Irvin Suit and beating each other with birch sticks!! So I'm well clad, just to reassure you!! Don't want to frighten the neighbours!

...a splash of Gucci Pour Homme

(my current tasks do not warrant anything too good to be ruined right now).

Paddy, I wish I could smell this.

 

[Spitfire]

Paddy, I wish I could smell this.

You read the part with the paintsplattered boiler suit as well, didn't you?

 

[LadyDeWinter]

Well, Spitfire, of course...

 

[Spitfire]

Well, Spitfire, of course...

I knew it!:whistling

Today, somewhere in Northern Europe:

And a bonus pic of the art deco town hall, this morning:

It finally started to turn cool, so I got to put on my most favorite coat that I own. It's warm, soft, and just feels good - best of all, its vintage!
