What are you wearing today??

[MaryDeluxe]

I agree with Feraud....I love seeing you guys work the white summer suits...all so different but all so well done!! :eusa_clap

I don't usually smile with my teeth, but these sunglasses make me laugh. Even I think they are a bit much.

You look great in long hair, and as a brunette! Solid!

 

[Tomasso]

Nice job fellas! :eusa_clap

Don't forget the gals.:eusa_clap

Big ups for AJ, Mike and Fletch.

You cats are rockin' Summer.

 

[Spitfire]

Straw Borsalino from Sienna, Italy. Sunglasses from Royal Air Force, 1940. Cigar from Cuba. And some nice old linen shirt.

If that is the same BB shirt I have then the collar is not removable.

Yup, Feraud's right! I have some removable collars which I love how they look - but the color never matches up with the white shirts I have. The material used for the collars I suppose has oxidized or something over the years, so when wearing them with white shirts it makes the collars look a million years old compared to the shirt. No sir, this isn't your dinosaur's patricide collar! lol

I have some vintage collars that are just that touch off-white even after thorough cleaning. I also have some slightly off-white vintage shirts. I've been wearing them interchangeably.

I was thinking maybe some colored/striped collarless shirts might work with the aging collars, but I haven't found a shirt that fits just right yet [huh]

 

[Panache]

The aquisition of this new jacket was the reason behind this military inspired look

fftopic:
Its been SOOO dang hot here lately that almost sounds like a good idea! Working on figuring out how close can I get to bare to stay cool with still wearing a brassiere and looking modest is a bit of a challenge- and frankly out here in No. California it would perhaps be seen as a quite refreshing change of pace!! I try to avoid the sun as much as I can, sleeving up when possible. I'd rather stay pale than have the so typical and so boring Calif. tan look.

I ain't taking my shirt off yet, but did get so warm in Zumba and Pilates classes at the YCMA last week in the evenings that after Zumba on Wed. pm, I went and jumped into the OUTDOOR POOL wearing my exercise class garb-wifebeater tshirt (snitched from DH's dresser) and my cropped grey sweats. Was told by the lifeguard that I can't wear street clothes in the pool (well duh). Had an hour break before Pilates, so I hung out dripping and cooling off. It felt GREAT! Still had wet sweats during Pilates but it felt good to get cooled off!

Keep yer shirt on, hon,

I got a good one, but it's stranded in my cel phone. I'm going to try to Bluetooth it off there. Gracious what a wonderful age we're living in.

You could PM clubwitsend. That's what I was dressed for last night. Don, of the mg't, took at least one of me there.

 

[Fletch]

I'm reminded of an exchange in Chevy Chase's Fletch...

Dana Wheeler Nicholson, in towels: Are you always this forward?
Chase: Only with wet married women.

Like I said, Carey, keep yer shirt on.

 

[Nick D]

Moss Bros. tropical weight suit
Vintage shirt
3" point collar
Tootal tie
Clarks brogues
Lee lightweight hat

I've never had brown shoes before, only black, so this was a bit of an experiment for me. I've seen a lot of 30s and 40s catalogue artwork showing men in grey suits with brown shoes, so I thought I'd give it a try.

Fabulous thread. White is Summertime to me. Especially linen and white.

Vintage Gieves & Hawkes tie

[chanteuseCarey]

lol lol lol Loove it! Haven't seen the movie, maybe I should.

Will do sir, tho I have ended up tying up my tshirt into sortoa forties midriff look thing in Zumba. I think I need to make/find a Busby Berkeley 30s chorine rehearsal outfit for dance aerobic exercise classes.
