    Aero 30s Halfbelt

    I got the cotton drill cloth as a lining, but only because the sale hide only comes with the cotton lining. This is most definitely a spring jacket, because I can't imagine wearing it in anything below 50 or so degrees. I need a pea coat or an overcoat for the winter, something I can layer under.

    The Big Christmas Can of Worms

    I say happy holidays, but not because I want to avoid being offensive. Rather, I say it to be all inclusive. Why should someone who doesn't celebrate christmas have a merry christmas? But since people don't go around wearing their religious beliefs stamped on their forheads, I find it easier...

    Art's getting close

    Do I hear the makings of a FL retreat?:p Honestly though, it's simply beautiful Art, it looks like an incredibly fulfillign choice you made.

    Avatar hats

    <-- A Knox Topper from around 1910 as best I can reckon.

    40's or 40's inspired christmas music?

    Call me crazy but I like Madonna's version of 'Santa Baby' that was on the Very Special Christmas Vol. 1 album. She does it in a very Betty Boopish voice. I probably love it so much because that album has been a part of my christmas tradition as far back as I can remember, particularly the car...

    Aero 30s Halfbelt

    I noticed that about te finish Baggers, but I know my Pecards well enough to know that those scratches don't stand a chance against it. In the meantime though, i like the look of the scratches, give it a bit of character. In fact, I've been 'accidentally' bumping into walls a bit more today...

    Aero 30s Halfbelt

    Root, replicate, reunite and annihilate! Thanks, I'm completely in love with it as well, and it does have a VERY 30s look to it, especially the fit (I can't breathe too heavily in it:cool: ) The best part about this jacket? The price. I got it in a batch of leather that Aero found too...

    Aero 30s Halfbelt

    Here she is, she came in the mail this morning and I've been wearing her since. Front: Front Zipped: Side Zipped: 3/4 Zipped: Back Zipped: And in case anyone was wondering, I'm wearing a great pair of pants that I acquired recently from someone here on the board. The...

    What Sort of Vintage Enthusiast Are You?

    Because we like the style but aren't a size 38 so we can't find clothes in our size?:p

    The Big Christmas Can of Worms

    I thought I read somewhere that it was the Greeks who crucified people on the X cross, and the one the Romans used looked more like a T.

    Mother makes child hold sign at roadside...

    I guess it just comes down to a difference of opinion. I don't think spanking and beating are the same thing. Maybe it's semantic, maybe it's just a difference in perception. I don't consider myself either particularly left or right, I'd say a nice even mix, with a slight liberal favor.

    Mother makes child hold sign at roadside...

    There is a line between disciplining your kids and beating them, and it's not a particularly fine line either. If my dad came up to my room and smacked my behind with a belt for calling my mom "stupid" and then told me to think about what I had done and stay in my room until dinner, thats...

    Mother makes child hold sign at roadside...

    My parents disciplined me and my brothers when we were growing up. All of us got hit and none of us regret it. Before you read on thinking "ok, here's another case of an older generation not being in touch with the times..." I'm 23, and my brothers are 20 and 17. My parents aren't what I...

    Classic Holiday Foods

    My mom is Puerto Rican, and since she does all the cooking (it doesn't hurt that she's a chef with her own cookbook and show out!) we've always had Puerto Rican Christmas Eve's, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Here's a brief list, with some descriptions: Pernil : A roast pork...

    What Sort of Vintage Enthusiast Are You?

    I'd say I'm largely a Vintage Inspired with a smattering of Authentic. Given the option between a suit made in 1930 and an exact clone of it made in 2004, I would take the 2004. But the copy has to be exact, including, and this is the most important bit, the material and the cut. I don't...

    My Next Jacket?

    Rick, that jacket looks gorgeous... and it has prompted me to reveal a dirty little secret of my own: I bought a 30s halfbelt last week (brown midweight HH). I got the email notice that y jacket had been shipped on tuesday, so it should be here early next week. I'd like to think I'll have...

    Newbie saying hello and trying to learn a thing or two

    Welcome to the forum Greg, it's a lot of fun over here. I find that when I tumble in from my adventures in foreign lands, there is little I like better than cleaning up, dressing to the nines, putting on some old tunes and enjoying a cigar and a drink with some friends. It was good seeing...
