this is what i wore last night to my friends birthday party.
The suit is a recent ebay purchase, the gloves are from camden market and the shoes were a charity shop find.

I don't usually comment on the ladies' outfits, not because I don't admire each and every one of you , but because I have no expertise in the area -- no real feel for it. But I must admit, this looks absolutely smashing!

My church canceled here in Wisconsin, too.

My, this is a day of great outfits even if of bad weather. I think this is a tremendous look!

Thanks Patrick.

As always, that outfit sounds great, especially the newsboy cap.

Thanks Patrick.

The cap, which I bought in an Irish goods shop in Seattle in 1980, is the garment I've owned the longest, and it's incredibly special to me. Also amazingly durable -- it looks inside and out like I bought it yesterday. And I wear it all the time -- no saving for special occasions, it's a workhorse. Real craftsmanship there!

I really like your hat, Alan.

Nice war face Dinerman!

 

[CharlestonBows]

Very well done -- nice balance, nice proportions. I'm a fan of the socks, as well. Who's the suit by?

Dinerman - great dressed down look. Nice execution, as always.

Thanks. The suit's an old Brooks Brothers. The tie is wool herringbone from Land's End. The socks are wool made by some Italian brand at TJ Maxx.

This is one of my favorite threads on the Lounge. I've been remiss in leaving individual comments but everybody looks great. I especially like SSB's striped socks. I've always wanted a pair of those--I may have to break down and get them .

get them, get them!!! sock-it-to-me socks are comfortable, generous in the calf (you can't tell, but i have enormous calves), keep your legs warm, and long-lasting! i've had some of my pairs for 2 years now. they're really worth the money.
