Happy Friday evening folks. This afternoon I returned to work wearing an inky blue Dobbs fedora. The inky blue hat can change from a really dark to a glowing dark blue in direct sun. Just some cool chameleon characteristics of this oldster felt fedora.

Kind of late to the party tonight. Many errands in the wasteland today. Wore my new Allen Edmonds Broadstreet spectators and a 1950s Echter Borsalino Homburg. Color is Dattero a nice brown. So, a trip to my Haberdasher was in order for myself. Oscar ordered me a beautiful slate gray overcoat in my size so I went all pre-Christmas gift to my self! Can't wait to pick it up, sleeves needed to be tailored. This coat will be a welcome addition to the winter repertoire. Always have to put my best foot forward in the Natty Dresser, finest haberdashery in the state of Oregon!

Truly a fine ensemble! I’m floored at how well dressed you are daily. Sort of drooling at those Allen Edmonds.

My wife & I went for a drive to a relatively local fish market. We’re having a seafood weekend. Sushi & tempura for lunch.

Tomorrow I’ll be in my kangaroo leather as I fire up the barbecue for sea bass at the pit.

Stefan, it's been the same here re lack of sunshine and daylight. Definitely not conducive to taking photos and posting. With hats like yours though, the light shines every day. A fantastic array. In fact, they're so outstanding, I haven't had time to admire your coats or scarves yet :)

Italian week is not over by a long ways. I have been neglecting the lounge this week a bit. Scientists were discussing if the sun even came up at all in the Netherlands these last few days; evidence was inconclusive!
To catch up I'll need two parts.

Borsalino Gulaela nero (qualitá extra superiore).

Lavorazione Speciale "rotto", restored by Fleur of Penumbra. Only later found out that these hats were made by Borsalino.

Borsalino Gulaela nero (not a doubling; I have several of these). This one is qualita superiore.

Nice intermezzo, Stefan. The Hückel is definitely one to wear on St. Patrick's Day.

Intermezzo is an Italian word, so this is allowed. Last week the hats were flooding in from all sides, not in the least because of the generosity of my fellow loungers Mark @M Hatman , Brent @deadlyhandsome and Randy @Rmccamey. Thanks guys!
Here are a few hats that came in and I just had to wear.
